It feels really played out now and I wonder if KC will drop but everyones loves it so that is good.

Weird I couldn't really find a video that did justice to how loud it gets at Sporting Park.

Was that at the Rapids playoff game a few years back? That's the first time I'd ever heard it

Ya, still plenty of horse shit to go around. Remember that Brazilian player that got stretchered off and then popped back up. Couldnt ****ing believe it.

I was watching at home and actually threw a half full beer can from my living room to kitchen. It wasn't one of my finer moments, but I was livid :D

I have seen it dated back to Utah St longer than that...not that I actually care...I sort of hope it starts going away in KC.

Work for two hours, then hitting a local wing place with some people. Can't wait!

I've never been a big soccer fan, but I do enjoy watching the World Cup. First got interested about 20 years ago. I think that was the year that the MLS started up and one of the World Cups (men's or women's?) was in the US. I'll admit that the offsides rule was a little weird and confusing. I did find a nice vid on Youtube explaining it and now I think I have a pretty good understanding. And I have always understood the extra time thing. Still think it is stupid, though. Why can't they just stop the clock for subs and whatnot like every other sport? I also think that soccer suffers a bit due to low scores and ties. Despite those flaws, it is still an exciting game to watch.

I think it's a lame chant, personally. It doesn't make a lot of sense

I'm wearing a red/blue/white (mostly red) plaid button down today. This morning while getting dressed I asked the gf:

Awesome: What color is my shirt?

Awesome gf: Salmon-reddish?

Awesome: WRONG! It's the color 'Merica!


Leaving work around 3P today to go watch the game with her before her shift @ the hospital.

You arent going because you know they will lose.
