im assuming tommy gets cheered when he is announced.

Looking like another hot night in the Bronx. Low to mid 80s, steamy, clear. Rain early in the day so remember to get as much water out of your seat as possible before sitting to avoid embarrassment.

I hope so. Cheer his announcement and hope he does nothing useful. If he scores I won't cheer but I will smile.

Who sits at games?

LionNYC is too busy yelling the entire game at the ref for not fully stopping play on a free kick at midfield in the 3rd minute

The ball was moving! That's an illegal restart!

Honestly, watching LionNYC during home games is sometimes more fun than watching our team trying to string passes together!

I've been a lot less animated at home games this season.

Hand gestures (VAR, counting, throw in direction, cards), sure. Yelling, much much less.

Only Sweat in danger of suspension. No one has a chance for a reduction, but a few players getting close.

Ring has 5 yellow cards in his last 11 games after receiving just 1 in his first 9. He's back.

It's good to have things you can count on in life.

And with that, Mata is gonna be injured 6min after kickoff...

And with that, Mata is gonna be injured 6min after kickoff...

When Sweat went down in the RSL game I initially thought that it was Mata that went down. I didn't realized it wasn't Mata until I saw the substitution graphic on the bottom of the screen where I realized it wasn't Mata getting subbed out in the 10th minute with an injury.

just watched Dome's preview.. looks like Maxi is still questionable and will probably not play since Dome probably would rather have him healthy and fresh vs. Atlanta. Also, he said he's looking to rotate and will likely rest Anton and maybe some other players. Not a bad thing since having a fresh and fit squad vs. Atlanta is more important than a weaker houston side.

We have pretty good depth on the squad so I think, even rotated, we can take 3 points at home and then march into the benz on the weekend to take 3 points from Atlanta (which would be so satisfying).

12 players on the field would be nice... but I don't think a 5-3-3 is a legal formation?
