It’s all doom and gloom on here following that performance vs Philly, but I don’t care, I’m excited as hell for this game. It will be my first derby in person and I get to spend the day doing touristy things in NYC.

Nah, I managed to convince a friend that it will be fun to take a train out of DC at 6:20 AM, spend all day running around NYC, deal with my craziness at the game, then not get back to DC until 6AM the next morning!

You’re taking a 2am train home?

Sucks about Callens. Ibeagha and Chanot will be interesting together.

Our back line has been such a disorganized shambles the last few games, it can’t hurt to try a new CB pairing.

 

[Shwafta]

Interesting, but we beat RB without Villa, Berget, or Shradi last time so who knows.

“A special position” Ball boy?

I have a feeling he meant winger or striker.

That first quote regarding not focusing on the Supporters Shield is eerily similar to PV conceding to toronto last season with multiple games left to play.

That sort of position is counterproductive to establishing a winning mentality.

Strangely enough, we are going to win on Wed. It’s just the mysterious, frustrating way we roll.

Lewis hat trick in last 10min?

 

[Keith Putnam]

I'm annoyed that this derby was scheduled for a weeknight. I had to sell my tickets.

 

[Christopher Jee]

I have a feeling he meant winger or striker.

I was thinking he meant as an inverted LB.

Ofori would be a decent shout there, especially if the alternative is Sweat.
