The UConn/JMU Men's Soccer Thread
You can watch it online Here. The play by play is a guy calling around getting a seasonal job. He is dropping "fuck" all over the place. Hope he gets the job. In any event the game is on.
1-0 UConn first half. Beautiful build-up to the goal. Just well taken. Things should flow pretty smoothly one would think. Hopefully our back four plays well on the ball for once.
Three more words makes a post.

nice
The guy closest to the mic now sounds pretty much like me at games, yelling “switch it” and begging them to release the passes quicker.
They're stocky.
Lots of beef to muscle us around, but perhaps a little too much to get off the field well.

Halftime show
Is a bunch of WHUS kids (I assume) talking about the Syracuse/Fine allegations. Really dumb stuff.
How much time is left?
I’m on a plane, so can’t watch.
By the way, you’re first now for the pick ’em league.

3-0
I’m trying to rewind the feed to find out what happened. Cascio the scorer. 25 minutes left. Time to kill off the game.
This is our strength
I know it sounds stupid to say, but this team is lethal when they get an early lead. Their passing and runs are so good that they can carve a team up when they have to open up and attack more.
21 minutes left.
More plaudits
As slowly as they started and inefficient they were last week, they were very prepared for this one. Very sharp for the most part.
Great to hear. Hopefully we don’t get Reided (both of em. I’m an Eagles fan as well)

I would love them to beat the Pats
If only because I would listen to WEEI all day tomorrow to enjoy someone else’s misery.
Exactly would love that
Pats are number one on my listfor most hated NFL teams. Mostly cause of that damn Superbowl my freshman year and then having to deal with going to school in Pats country.

As for the Akron comment in your tweet
I do not want to play Akron. The style they play would give us fits, and really, they’re better than their seeding or lack therof.
Next week
Elite 8 match would be Saturday, not Sunday. I’ve got a gig Saturday so I’m either running like crazy for a gig, or dragging myself out of bed for one. They need to consult me on this shit.
Gig?

Still TBA
Announcement over PA was that they have no clue right now, but that it could indeed be Sunday.

Hathaway's here.
Schmoozed the coaches and staff big-time before game. Also saw him with Coach Morrone.
Looks about 25 pounds heavier, for what it’s worth.

Yeah, still here.
He’s surprisingly quiet as a fan. Hardly even clapping. End of my row.

He earned some peace and quiet in his retirement
Never saw a more fired-up coach. At times, he made Coach Cal look like a hippie.
JUST missed goal #4.
Keeper kicked it straight up on the goal line. Wild save.

True story
I wanted to get married on the pitch of Morrone, in the north goal section. I even sent an e-mail to the athletic department asking about it. They never got back in touch.
That would have pretty cool. Wife wouldn’t have minded?

She was playing along
Don’t know how that would have worked. I might have switched from “if it makes you happy dear” to “I’m getting married in an inch of mud?”
That was nice of her. Could renew your vows.

I wonder how far behind the video stream is
I’d laugh to think I’m still commenting on a match that ended 15 minutes ago.
the stream just died
So I guess my work here is done. And we did it without discussions about whether a guy from Mass said something nasty in Nigerian.
I did think of this blog
when they made the “please, no ethnic taunting” announcement before the game.

…and I should stress that I do not ordinarily associate this blog with ethnic taunting. You know what I mean.

I picked a hell of a night to jump into the commenting fold. I will always cherish the memories.
