Not NYCFC related, but who can resist explaining the offside rule to Elmo?
Oh my god this is literally me around my family. I'm so happy I'm not the only who has to go through the pain of trying to explain this every single time this happens.
Every time I watch Vieira playing in one of these, I wonder:
"If Vieira got fit and suited up for us right now, he would be the ___ best player on the team."
Thoughts?
Over how many minutes? For 20-30 minutes I'd guess he could challenge for best. Full game maybe 4th to 6th best? Am I underestimating the effect of age? I've been through it.
During the Cosmos post game interview it would say the game took play at Yankee Stadium in the description. But this is just plain stupid...

Mother's Day is every day of the year, even on Fathers Day.
My favorite thing about this video is how the Philly goalie just stands there helplessly as the ball goes by and then glumly picks it up at his feet.
I saw this live, from the side. It was beautiful seeing the ball arc across the sky in front of us - realizing the goalie was beaten and it might go in. Seeing this angle - and the curl of the ball and how Villa played it. Simply amazing.
If that went in I think the game would have been over, the refs would have walked off the field, and David Villa would be awarded MLS MVP.
A microphone would have spontaneously appeared in his hand just so he could drop it.
The ironic thing about that is that before the match, Villa, Pirlo and Lampard made a bet as to whom could hit the crossbar from midfield first. Villa was never aiming for goal - That's why Lampard was following it up because he was expecting the rebound. I just wish next time the bet instead involves putting the ball in the net.

I'm not sure that hashtag means what you think it means.
I have an idea of where you were headed with that so in the interest of a PG atmosphere I took care of it.
I found it quite amusing when the national anthem was being sung, they didn't pan on to a single American player on the team. And for some reason they didn't show any of Villa at The end of the game... Quite odd?? *Cough* Cough* Rampage *Cough* Cough*
I must be developing a cold on these forums
