Shut up about the damn polls...

If anybody's going because of Beckham, you're going to be disappointed. MLS added a extra game to his suspense so he's not going to play on Sunday.

 

[Shawon0Meter]

I'll be watching this one. It's one of very few games on a channel I get.

 

[Jntg4]

Yes! No Beckham!

 

[firefan2001]

Yes! No Beckham!

I wonder if all the 14 year old girls still come out to the game.....

They suck with or without him.......

 

[Jntg4]

Lol probably, hope Grazzini plays

 

[firefan2001]

Lol probably, hope Grazzini plays

If Grazzini dosen't play then we have seen the last of him.

Shut up about the damn polls...

Every other forum has a poll for their IGT/IST.

Ya, well I don't give a **** how the other forums are run.

Ya, well I don't give a **** how the other forums are run.

You should.

Maybe more posters would join if you had a poll

 

[Jntg4]

You should.

Maybe more posters would join if you had a poll

You're the only one who cares, I'm so sure having no poll is detrimental to a user's decision to join or not.

Maybe more posters would join if you would recruit.

 

[Jntg4]

Donovan and Magee on bench

 

[Jntg4]

Alex in for Pause! Come back now!

****, 2-0 loss

****, 2-0 loss

Well get use to it this is what we are going to look like without Grazzini. We won at KC and tied at Houston, but we were played it both of those games. We are home against a horrible LA team without Beckham and Donovan (played 25 minutes) in front of a full house and we play like that (PIT-A-FUL). Time to stop playing 4-5-1 long ball to Oduro, others teams have caught on to it. Frank needs to go and kiss Grazzini's ass and get him back here, because we are playing like the team before Grazzini and Pardo were signed. Grazzini should be playing the CAM position and Rolfe and Alex should be up top as forwards.

This one is on Frank.........

 

[Jntg4]

And McDonald isn't an answer either

 

[firefan2001]

So maybe just maybe Grazzini had something to do with us winning.....

We should have had two easy goals from Nyarko and Anibaba, and the handball wasn't even in the damn box. Those things happen and people are happy and singing a completely different tune about missing Grazzini. I don't think his presence would have helped, considering every other player on the team looked like they hadn't touched a ball in years.

Rolfe is a striker. Play him there, not AM.
Play Pappa at AM, not wing mid.
WTF Nyarko, you have a giant forehead, learn to use it.
Keane is a super-******.
