Because every fan and every player in every other league hears the whistle 100% of the time. :jerkbag:

Just checked in with him to clarify, cause you have a good point. Apparently he's sitting right by the corner 15 rows up and the whistle was clearly audible in his section before the final pass in to Martins. That did not all the people in his section from cheering wildly for a fake goal.

Now I am not at the game, and I am relying on second hand information from my buddy stateside, but it seems really weird that FC Sounders Seattle has an actual accountant playing for them.

Maybe it was the angle but it looked like Donovan didn't even play the ball and instead just pushed Yedlin out of the way

can't w8 for lalas to fade into irrelevancy as it should have been once he was deemed too slow to play for LA and is somehow not tarred and feathered by San Jose fans everywhere he goes.

I guess that's what happens when you start your 2nd, 3rd, and 4th string defenders, along with a midfield that doesn't bother showing up.

I am not sure what point Lalas thinks he is making here. Both of these things are true and Bradley is also right about the poor quality of officiating in MLS.

Larentowicz is starting at center back again today.

I wonder if that means the team is looking either offload a CB or get another DM.

Or both.

The thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes, look for them behind words that have changed their meaning.
On one hand Toronto should probably have had a penalty, on the other hand blowing for halftime immediately after a corner kick while a goalbound header is literally in the air is kinda bullshit so I hope nobody will claim the refs are biased today!

Did they not call a foul in the box followed by halftime? Because that certainly seemed like what happened.

Yeah, I didn't realise it was a foul (in fairness neither did the Rogers Sportsnet commentators, but since they're awful that's not much of a defense for me!)

Wow, TFC really need to take one of these chances.

DC defense looking good again. They track everyone well, and even cover one another - at least one CB helps Korb when he gets outrun, and the other CB never gets caught out in the process.

And as soon as I type that, Toronto nearly finds a way through.

Nick Deleon has moments of brilliance at least once a game. Most of the time he's slow and stupid and invisible, but then he pulls some foot magic and I flash back to New Jersey in the snow one more time.

Still confused why the Revs haven't picked up a yellow for kicking the ball out of play after a foul. That's twice by my count.

That said if we beat RSL on Saturday I'll forge about this game.

At least Guzman brought a whistle to this game. I imagine PRO sent him to a remedial course to learn how to blow into it after our game with Atlanta.
