Incredible season. Had a blast.

US Open Cup Champions. Qualified for CONCACAF Champions League. Franchise record wins.

They will be right at the top next year bringing it again. This season was a joy even with the tough finish.

This is the equivalent of the 13-3 Chiefs blowing it all twice in the 90s.

Choking bitches.

They were the best team in their conference. If they were the best team in the regular season they would have won the supporters shield. They came in 2nd on points.

wasn't really a choke job they lost 2-1 on agg because they had a crappy game in Houston, and im not making excuses they missed some wide open shots last night but there where a few questionable calls by the ref inside Houston's box tho. still no excuse should have finished them.

Yup. I was in Houston. That second goal changed everything.

That was a foul on Chance Myers that should have resulted in a penalty kick. There is no questioning that. The ref swallowed his whistle because he didn't want to be the one to decide the outcome of the game. We're staring at a whole lot of possibilities, were that call actually made.

Robb is already in talks with strikers. This team will be strongly supplemented for next year.

Is this you? Saw you interviewed by my friend Kristin on pregame last night

Can someone explain the two game goal aggregate format to me? Is this type of playoff common around the world? Is there any interest in a non-aggregate based system?

I see both 1 seeded teams lost in their first rounds of play. How much of a homefield advantage is really conferred by the current format?

Is Zach the SKC mascot?

It is common around the world for many tournaments. Though not the only way to go about things. There are also variations of it.

Do you still consider yourself a Chiefs and Royals fan? Or has the losing drained on you too much?

I have never really big that big of Royals fan. I wish them well and go to a lot of games but baseball has never really been my thing.

I grew up with and love the Chiefs. Football is the game I love its what I played...its my sport. I don't know where I am with the Chiefs but my feelings are not only about the Chiefs. I don't really love the direction of the NFL as a whole. It feels kind of lifeless and sanitized to me. Even before the Chiefs started being really shitty I found myself caring less and less about non Chiefs NFL games and that has only grown. Though its not a football thing because I still love NCAA football. On top of that you have how awful the Chiefs have been and how toxic and not fun the atmosphere in the stadium is.

I don't know how to answer your question because I think I am still figuring that out. It is really really hard to reconcile the current tone deaf and failed management of the organization with the childhood mystique of what I want it to be. Being a fan of Sporting has made that contrast so much bigger.
