And then after the whistle DC did some chirpping...Probably calling out Toronto for not showing up to play yesterday.

Wow. I watched the first half and gave up on it, especially given the heat and being down a man.

The cherry on top is the SJ fan on the video board behind the goal who starts waving her scarf after her team allows an own goal.

The DCU - NER game was bizarre. No real energy, NER should've walked the match, but allow an extremely sloppy goal at the hands of Higuian and they sneak another point,

Meanwhile, COL almost snuck a point against Sporting in a 3-2 whacky game where CO had 2 guys sent off.

I watched the wrong game.

Story in the Adelson fishwrap today quoted the LV Raiders VP in saying they're in the "contract stages" of getting an MLS team for Las Vegas/Allegiant Stadium, but I'm not aware of any teams that are candidates for re-location.

Right before DC went out against Montreal, my sales rep called me to check in. That was before baseball went and messed it up for everyone. I am guessing eliminated teams left the bubble, but i have not heard of DC training or MLS even mentioning playing games.

USL appears to be having games with no fans.

Oh and he is on the Utah sports commission... you know the folks that brought the nwsl bubble.and pro lax bubble to his facilities.

Speaking on the local show “Radio From Hell,” Hansen said the boycott of the game went against what the RSL stands for, which is a sense of community building and family. He likened the team’s decision to a backstabbing.

“It’s a moment of sadness,” Hansen said. “It’s like someone stabbed you and then you’re trying to figure out a way to pull the knife out and move forward. That’s what it feels like. The disrespect was profound to me personally.”

As an apparent response to the game’s boycott, Hansen said he’ll be rolling back some of the decisions he’s made recently, including bringing back 40 employees that had been furloughed in April due to the suspension of the MLS season.

“We will not be inviting fans back to the stadium in the future, so tomorrow ... I start cutting 40 to 50 jobs again,” Hansen said. “We would not go through the risk of inviting people back to have that kind of an outcome.”
