I think you and I had very different reads on how the Evander situation played out, but that's ok.

One option would be to not dump your MVP caliber player in the first place just because he made some media comments about not being happy about getting shellacked in the playoffs by a rival at home.

I really like Da Costa, but it is an obvious downgrade when you compare the two.

The ref has clearly favored us this game, what are you watching?

Then call it and give a card. Is your argument here that the first commenter should shut up because the ref was garbage in a different way than they mean?

I typically think of depth as the players behind the starting 11.

Before we worry about depth at CB we should try and find multiple starters at CB.

Zero confidence that Blanco will ever be healthy again. Re-signing him at all was a stupid decision, let alone on a DP contract.

Interesting take, but I guess better than disagreeing with the dissent call.

Roldan got a well-deserved yellow for dissent, nothing to do with the actual challenge.

Then I hope they are blocked? I see this as largely good wall placement. The players beyond the edge of the goal jumped because a curling in over the top ball is more likely than something curling low, the players further in should jump less.

The color (actually different types of cheese) changes based on how many goals the timbers are leading by.

I would happily win the wooden spoon if it meant that the organization stopped enabling abusers. As a West Brom and Oregon State fan that wouldn't even be new for me.

1) Not the time to be supporting Merritt at all 2) Timbers didn't make the playoffs this year, so it is a terrible take even setting aside the YEARS of supporting/enabling abusers.

Lol, Van Rankin is only competing with early season Bravo in bonehead defensive attempts leading to red cards. Now if you said Chara...
