As great as it is for Minnesota to be missing players, I'm disappointed that we won't be facing one of the best names in MLS.Since we won't open the MNU game thread until late Wednesday....

It was a coin flip for me as to whether you were referring to Maximiano or Fernando Bob.As great as it is for Minnesota to be missing players, I'm disappointed that we won't be facing one of the best names in MLS.
Exactly. Who doesn't want to see Minimax vs. Maximiano?
I need to add this to the Yellow Card thread.
I was referring to Fernando Bob, but that's a good catch Gotham Gator . Especially since Maxi's full name is MaximilianoIt was a coin flip for me as to whether you were referring to Maximiano or Fernando Bob.
I definitely vote Fernando Bob. Especially if he is related to the Springfield Bobs.It was a coin flip for me as to whether you were referring to Maximiano or Fernando Bob.
I’ll be interested to see if Minnesota doesn’t appeal Bob’s red card. Replay made it seem like he didn’t really hit ValeriSince we won't open the MNU game thread until late Wednesday....
I just looked. I think he rides his elbow up the neck and catches him in the chin. I can credit the argument it should not have been a red, but I'll be somewhat surprised if it is reversed. As you note, Minnesota would have to appeal, also. Wonder if they have any left. If they haven't used any, they might as well try now, because what else are they saving it for at this point?I’ll be interested to see if Minnesota doesn’t appeal Bob’s red card.
