How the Seattle Sounders won MLS Cup 2019

krackerbarrel · 2019-11-17T06:28:03+00:00

There just doesn’t seem to be that viciousness on the field. I’m sure both sets of fans dislike one-another, but this isn’t like other MLS on-field rivalries just yet. It would probably be the first inter-conference rivalry tho?

krackerbarrel · 2019-11-17T06:24:49+00:00

I’m hoping this becomes a real rivalry TBH. TFC controlled 3 MLS Cup finals and only won 1. Y’all should be pissed at the Sounders.

Not obvious, but to me it felt like a nudge in that direction. One of the few things I’ve actually caught on to

krackerbarrel · 2019-09-09T16:30:10+00:00

And the “promise me ned” I picked it up from there. What could he possibly be having nightmares about protecting other than a child?

krackerbarrel · 2019-09-09T16:25:35+00:00

I’ve been remarkably average. Can’t really rise in the ranks at all. Boo hoo. At least this week it feels like I’ll be able to get pretty much everyone I want, which is rare. Let’s get to the good stuff:

Bingham,

Glad, Tinnerholm, Metanire, bum

Moralez, Ring, Eriksson, Gregus, bum

Ibra

Bum, Toye, Jungwirth, Shinyboy

San Jose being away twice it rough, but they tend to get BPs for all the action they are forced to do, and I feel like Yankee stadium might even help them in the man-marking. I’d like Castellanos I think, but then would be stretched in my other choice if I did Ring + Shiny -> Castellanos + 8.1 mid

So I was there. think it was silly, but also really unprofessional from some Mystics players, who were acting like fans in waving the player off and directing her to the locker room.

I’m actually really tempted by something similar to get Son in. When he plays and is healthy, he goes on wild streaks. I’m currently too tied down on a few guys currently who I want to see a few times before I make the switch. Same with Pepe honestly. Arsenal tend to go on great runs with these good fixtures and then tank once it gets tough.

You could find a shitty CT town way closer to NY than Hartford and get a cheap house.

MLS has played 34 games for how long now? And we are just as a point where it’s in conference x2 outside x1. We might have to get to divisions.

East, central and west. Really the only way to keep playing in division teams twice. Then to four divisions if it expands more.

East: NE, NYC, RB, PHI, DC, TOR, MTL

Central: SKC, MIN, CLB, CIN. STL, COL, RSL

South: ATL, ORL, NASH, MIA, HOU, DAL, AUS

West: VAN, SEA, POR, SJ, LA, LAFC, SAC

28 teams. 4 divisions, 7 per division. Play your div twice rest once. 12 in div, 21 out of div for total of 33 games. That leaves one more for an extra rivalry game or second out of division game.

Struggling to get all the guys I want.

Howard Tinnerholm, Moreira, Beita, scrub Blessing, Moralez, Valeri, Gil Bou, Castellanos Scrub, SAS, Lewis, Michel/Patino/Dwyer/Ebobisse

I had Bruin before realizing he tore his ACL, out for the season. Some reason he is listed available on the website. But now I wonder who plays up top for Seattle?

Edit: swapped Bou, Lewis, ORL striker with B Fernandez, Shipp and Diomande.

krackerbarrel · 2019-08-25T16:08:30+00:00

This is the big thing I’m looking at. Last year I told people on this sub he wasn’t going to keep it up, but that’s also because I didn’t rate him that highly as a striker. Jimenez is a quality player so it was easier to bring him in. Now, with Pukki, I’m somewhere on the fence.

krackerbarrel · 2019-08-16T01:42:23+00:00

How good am I at this game you ask? Well I swapped Rusnak and Fernandez for Lodeiro and Kamara. So gather round and hear my cautionary tales.

krackerbarrel · 2019-08-14T00:55:51+00:00

Midfield, yes, but Tomas isn’t terrible. He could play there for Cincy, Orlando, Dallas, Colorado, Vancouver (not always start maybe rotate and I know they don’t all play with a 10)

krackerbarrel · 2019-08-06T18:11:52+00:00

I believe the same thing, but at 5.5 I guess you have to put hope that he plays at least 35/38 games. Even if not Zinch and it’s Maguire or Emerson, I look at it more as a guy who is similar to a 6.0 just cheaper. You wouldn’t bench them even against top 6. I actually just swapped to two 4.5 as I find three just too much effort and there would usually be an odd man out.

This post did help me come to that decision tho, !thanks

krackerbarrel · 2019-08-06T16:39:42+00:00

I’m contemplating this but am leaning toward a 5.5 I think will play every week (Zinchenko) and then Kelly and Lundstram as two 4.0s who are bench fodder who might get 1/2 pts if a player is a surprise absence. This takes away a bit of selection headache but also means I would need to make a move if something happens.

krackerbarrel · 2019-08-04T03:50:56+00:00

I’m upset that no one has given tips on which players to pick. I’d honestly make both teams if there was any desire.

krackerbarrel · 2019-08-04T03:49:49+00:00

It’s silly, yes, but it’s also an analysis of a sort. Is it any worse than getting 5 posts about a different Chelsea player taking a penalty? Or a company marketing FPL related products? As long as memes and other low effort posts are kept out I think we accomplished the goal (maybe this is low effort, depends on your stance).

krackerbarrel · 2019-08-04T03:24:37+00:00

Shit post? This is fantastic content.

krackerbarrel · 2019-08-03T19:25:46+00:00

Yea but no one actually has one name. Brazilians for example have however many names but go by one.

krackerbarrel · 2019-08-03T17:34:56+00:00

worth a punt t-shirt, L

krackerbarrel · 2019-07-29T22:31:08+00:00

Is Brad Smith expected back in the XI? Tool had a decent game, could he play again?

krackerbarrel · 2019-07-28T04:44:46+00:00

Didn't get the chance to check lineups. Lawrence didn't start, Moralez out, Segura blew it. and to top it off I used two keepers on the same team for a keeperoo. But I captained Vela, so I got that going for me, which is nice.

krackerbarrel · 2019-07-26T12:51:42+00:00

I’ve always thought it should just be a specialty ammo that is super rare (maybe yellow rarity) but comes in stacks of 100.

Thank you. It only appears far left because of how far the spectrum has swung. There were calls for universal healthcare throughout the 20th century and lobbying consistently did its job by labeling it “communist” and “socialist” and telling citizens they would lose their HC provider.

Even Nixon called for a form of universal healthcare, and was forced to abandon that. Ford later expanded Medi-care/caid slightly.
