Well if we put out the same lineup and same formation 4-2-3-1 we will lose. I won't miss anything by it not being televised. With that formation the BEST we are going to do is tie, which is sad that Frankie would put out a defensive lineup considering we are playing at home.

If we lose this game, then Frankie rumors must start (FIRE FRANKIE).....

We played Dynamo well enough, we may be able to beat Columbus, but wishful thinking.

And are we sure it will be no TV? MLS policy changed last year so that every game must be televised.

My 50 has the Wolves game, CSN has the Cubs game and NBC has a new Smash. So unless it's on tape delay of CSN Plus there is NO TV for this game.

Maybe they'll re-up with Nonstop for a day :shrug:

Glad its no blackout, but this is a new level of failure, only MLS team in 2-3 years to have a game not televised live

Heading out to Toyota Park today and getting my press pass for the rest of the season there. Should be a great experience!

4-2-3-1 again, I guess this is going to be the formation for the rest of the year. Boring defensive countering attacking soccer. I just don't get it, how th ******** is this kid going to improve and get better if Frankie doesn't even have him in the the final 18.

PS our best player the last two games go to the bench.......

Think the Fire have looked pretty good so far, wouldn't be surprised if we pull off a win here

Great win, much deserved, quite possibly our best played game of the season. TWENTY SHOTS!

It was a good win, but Columbus just denfended all game and were playing for a 0-0 tie like we do when we play away. So I wouldn't take to much out of that game, but it is an improvement for the first 5 games. It would be nice if Frankie would put out an offensive formation (at least playing at home), if he did we would of won 3-0 or 4-0.

Whether they were just defending or not our pursuit was relentless and it eventually paid off, very encouraging nevertheless.

And the formation wasn't the problem last night, it was Andy Gruenebaum.
