Did I call it, or did I call it?!? (life is good when you put on superfan goggles and predictions come true)

Marsch feeling his oats – Check

Flores scoring a goal – Check

Atiba Harris diagonal runs – Semi Check

Braun out muscling a defender and setting up a goal – Check

Riding a three game winning streak and being tied for second place – Check

Being able to see live soccer with your wife and two kids – priceless

PocketKings, He’s where every fan wants to be!

A decent draw with a DC team we could have beaten, but how about that 2nd goal by the Revs last night? A pair of pinball headers, Larentowicz to Dube… glorious. A great way to cap off a primetime game on the Boston Celtic’s off-night.

Oh, and San Jose got hit pretty hard with the call-ups actually. Ivan Guerrero left for Honduras and Kei Kamara left for Sierra Leone this week. Plese don’t get mad at me cause I can’t spell.

Panchito was a terrible left back against Colorado. Man, I totally want to discuss Chivas! Where is Alex? I just bought tickets to the August home Classico! Jessie is my hero. That guy knows how to lead a team for sure. Chivas are really going to miss him when he retires.

Chivas v Columbus…
I think that the fiestyness of the rookies might prove to be the catalyst for a Chivas win.

The backline has done a better job of not creating huge gaps for opposing forwards to take advantage of. If the back 4 hold (including Panchito’s defensive duties as left back) and Chivas wins the midfield possession game, hopefully back-up goalie Lance Parker won’t have to make too many saves.

Jessie Marsch is also feeling his oats, scoring in the last few games.

Can Flores continue his goal scoring streak to three games?

Will Atiba Harris cut through the Crew backline with diagonal runs and send in good centering passes?

Can Braun continue to “muscle” out small advantages to maintain possession and toe poke a few assists/goals?

Tune in next Sunday (spoken in the Fat Albert Cartoon skit about the Brown Hornet) for the Ro..ji..blanco!!!!
