Revs-Fire Halftime Thoughts

The Revs fell behind 1-0 to Chicago on a very early Logan Pause goal. That wasn't as scary as our lineup, though:

Defenders: Heaps, Riley, John

Midfield: Thompson, Larentowicz, Flood, Ralston, Dorman

Forwards: Twellman, Cristman


Starting three rookies is no way to win the first game of the season. To paraphrase Chicago native Jim Belushi as a high school chess coach in 80's SNL: "Why don't you just give'em the king, Stevie! Give it to 'em!"

The Revs have managed to create just as many good chances as their opponents. The animosity between the teams has also seemed to die down a bit.

I'm watching the game on MLSlive, and I do have to say that the Fire broadcst team have been perfect neutral announcers. The team works well together and they have been complementary to both sides. Some opposing fans complain of Feldman's homerism and you definently see it with Shep Messing on MSG, but these guys have been a pleasant surprise.

COME ON YOU REVS! LEVEL IT UP!
