Just got home from Crew Stadium. First, a random shot I took during the game, before my thoughts/rant against New England...
This isn't taken from anywhere near my actual seats, my Dad and I like to walk around and watch the game from different spots.
Now, my thoughts on the game. It was a pretty entertaining match, what I saw of it, at least. I missed the first 10 minutes, and thus, the first 2 goals, due to a traffic jam. Gotta love the location of the stadium, right in the heart of some of C-Bus' worst traffic areas. I love Eddie Gaven to death, but he's gotta take at least one of those two chances he had. It's okay to shoot, Eddie. I think the Crew looks much better than last year, and I really think the playoffs are a possibility. I really do. Now for my rant...
The New England Revolution is the biggest bunch of cheating, diving, playacting, no-good, cheating cunts that I have ever seen this side of the Atlantic. Now, I'm trying not to be biased, and I know the Crew are not angels. (For the record, I didn't see the elbow Alex mentioned.) Fucking hell, everytime a Crew player won the ball, he was immediately pushed, pulled or shoved. I understand that soccer is physical. It's a contact sport, after all. But at some point you have to stop being thugs and play. I've rarely seen Eddie Gaven get visibly pissed off, but it happened tonight, which tells me something. Don't get me started on the three blind mice in red, either, because they missed at least 10 clear-cut fouls. I know they're human, but c'mon. And when they did managed to get their hands out of their pants and use their whistles or flags, it was more than likely to stop a Crew attack to treat a New England "injury." It happened at least three times. Jay Heaps is a fucking piece of shit. Nice rugby tackle to stop a breakaway, you cunt. Have I mentioned how overrated I think Taylor Twellman is? Because he really is. God, I hate him. I'm tired of typing, so I'll end with this...Fuck off, New England. I hope you play someone even dirtier who breaks everyone of your legs.
I hope you all enjoyed that.

. All the other fellow Crew fans must have gotten to you tonight because everything you wrote in your rant I disagreed with. I thought the Crew were the more physical team and I though the refereeing was pretty even for both sides, all the off-sides call were right on, trust me on this one. At the end when the one Rev player was down the Crew just continued their attack and the ref didn't blow the whistle until the half-chance was over so I don't know what you mean when you mentioned that bit.
