What a great post. I agree with much of what you said tactically. But what I quoted hits home. This will be the biggest game I've ever watched. Followed the '97 hex in the newspaper, our family didnt...

Grizz, Thanks a lot for taking the time to explain the full situation. That was excellent.

Is this supposed to be some sort of parable?
Is anyone else having trouble with the forum causing your browser to freeze. I have Safari and it's happened to me about 10 times today. It's taken me a long time to read all the posts! haha.
That's so funny you thought to bring up this thread. I was thinking the same thing as the Montreal match ticked down.
I don't disagree that a player who under-performs is fair game for criticism if their lifestyle is perceived to be impacting their play. The fact is your "evidence" that he is out partying all the...
If by before a game you mean three days before, than that statement would be accurate. I guess they should never go out, could be "before" a match. If you're going to imagine what may have happened...
Those who have a problem with players going out for some drinks after a game have a seriously warped sense of reality. When I saw that article on CSN today I was shocked. I already commented on the...
I would be curious what Julian has made over his career. Anyone know what he made at Coruna? That would be the only other time he would have been over a million per season, and he was there 4 years....
Except you can only have 2 GA (home grown) players on the first team.

The MLS pay structure isn't basic supply and demand because they have a cap. The problem is not that the minimum is where it is, the cap structure is limiting how many homegrown players can be paid a...
You may play on sunday for the "love of the game" and that is your right, but he is a professional. He owes it to himself and his family, if he has one, to get paid the most for what he does in the...
Selfish and disgraceful? I think he's well within his rights to get the money he's owed. If your boss fired you before your hypothetical contract was up, and was required to pay you regardless, would...
Wow. I'm guessing you are not too invested in Canada or the national team if that's all it takes for you to jump ship. We WILL give you an unflattering nickname. Canadian soccer fans don't take...
That is ridiculous. It was 3 days before the match and as far as I'm concerned the players can do whatever they want as long as they show up to training and work their ass off. Obviously the closer...
And if he was, so what? It really shouldn't matter if the whole team was at the bar. Maybe they had the green light. Idiotic to get in a bar fight first of all and then second of all, it seems like...
I wonder if (when) Canada gets to the World Cup and possibly (probably) goes three and out, if the public in Canada will say "See, I told you they suck." Or will we be proud we got there and...
Spit out my coffee. I'll send you an invoice for my Tim Horton's.

Yup. I read the news too. Two facts that I'm sure I don't have to inform you of;
1) 48 hours is an extremely limited amount of time to accomplish what I'm sure Hart would like to before we see...
So which one of you rich guys has the dough to pay a decent team to play us AND bribe all the clubs to release the players for 5 days in August.
While someone connected may read this board, there is no chance any decision is related to how fans react on a message board.
Clubhouse Leader.
Also, kudos to you hodgkiss for taking initiative.
