You went to see the Union? That's awesome. The MLS, as a whole, blows but they're getting better year by year. Hopefully the Union can get a solid following. I don't like anything from NY but go catch a Union v Red Bulls game. Thierry Henry is old and broken down now, but you will be able to say you watched the greatest striker in the world play.

Tsch. History is something Merkins don't get.

All fun aside, I don't actually want to get into football banter, given the recent situation with Neil Lennon.
That carries far too many of the elements of the Troubles. But carried into a new playing field. There's always been Sectarian violence in Scotland, but this ramps it up far too far. When many Western nations are looking towards Islam as the terrorist threat, is the awful Christian violence of the last 40 years resurging under the wire?

Friend has season tix. For $100, I sat on the 50 in the 20th row... Outstanding seats.
VERY expensive food/drink/stuff... I was really surprised. As bad or worse than Football or Hockey.

OH and after 3-4 yellows a totally bog red out the union down a man with about 10 mins to go in the first half ... which ended 0-0.

They battled in the second and FINALLY got a call their way (ref still sucked) with about 13 mins left. Got a PK, scored and ended up winning 1-0.
Had a good time...

Like, hey man, I stopped using my reverse-reverse-reverse-sarcasm decoder ring after it stopped being cool.



Because it came out that Andy Rooney knew what one of them was.
