Yup, though I think he still makes the 5. I would probably have him go second to avoid as much pressure as possible.

For what it's worth, ASA's playoff prediction model (based on the same seeding prediction model that correctly had Atlanta choking away the Supporters' Shield) puts NYCFC at a 70% to advance tomorrow and 15% to [make the final, I can't read]. Knock on wood and all that.

The 15% is to make it to the Finals. It is 7.4% to win. I don't know why your columns show up so much wider.For what it's worth, ASA's playoff prediction model (based on the same seeding prediction model that correctly had Atlanta choking away the Supporters' Shield) puts NYCFC at a 70% to advance tomorrow and 15% to win it all. Knock on wood and all that.
The 538 figures in order are 74%, 33%, 17% and 7%.
High 50s at kickoff and throughout the game. Going to be a beautiful night!!

Thanks, I stayed up all night writing a 3,680-word NYCFC playoff preview and it apparently destroyed my ability to read.
I hope it wasn’t 3680 words explaining why they have a 15% chance of winning.
Has anybody here bought playoff tickets not as part of their STH account? My friend bought tickets for tomorrow and the Semifinals, and received confirmation of the purchase, but the tickets are not in his Ticketmaster account, he does not have an NYCFC account, and he has not yet gotten an email with his tickets either.
ETA: Never mind. My friend does have an NYCFC ticket account but just forgot about it.

Yankee Stadium (7PM ET)
REF: Robert Sibiga
AR1: CJ Morgante
AR2: Jason White
4TH: Jose Carlos Rivero
VAR: Drew Fischer
He's probably the nicest of the bunch. Quite friendly those that see him often referee or as the 4th official.
First Historic Knockout Playoff Game tomorrow
First Historic NYCFC costume party!!! Oh wait...
I think Sexy Ned Grabavoy is still permitted. To the extent that it was ever acceptable.
Get Up! It’s game day!!!! Is it trick or treat tonight???

My dude this was excellent
Ring never takes penalties. I think there were some penalty shoot-outs at Kaiserslautern and he didn't take a shot.
Yeah take a bow. Although if they lose tonight with winning the advanced stats, high probability of the Samuel jackson meme coming on.
That said, it’s a good matchup because Philly actually wants to play with the ball unlike some of those teams that just bunkered.
Not just well researched, but also well written. I liked the gem below in particular.
If City Football Group has a foundational stylistic idea—what tactics writers call a “philosophy”—it is that if you pile enough cash on the field in crisply wrapped bundles the weight will tilt the playing surface so that the ball rolls downhill into the opposing goal.
