oh wow! What a transformation of players. Who was even playing in that game? Was that still during the 'white is our best defender arguably' period?

Strawmen. The point was the mojo of a home field. I agree that UM/Joe Robbie would have been a better analogy, but Jacksonville is a by far gator town with 8x the population of Gainesville.Not even close. The WLOCP is split 50/50 in fan support. It’s a 2 hour drive from Gainesville. While it is closer than Athens and in the state of Florida, everyone from both fan bases go and it’s split 50/50 in tickets.
We are playing in the same city and the fan split will be equal to that of YS. Your analogy, while still not correct, might have been more accurate if you compared he canes playing at Joe Robbie vs the orange bowl
And citifield is not our home venue, hence no mojo.
Yeah. We were playing Mikey Lopez. Let that sink in.
Based on this red bull arena is a home game

I think if we lose, it won't be because we're playing at Citi Field. It'll be because the team was stale after all that time off and Toronto came racing out of the gate. The first 30 minutes will be crucial as we get our sea-legs under us.
I agree. That's why I said the key tothis game will be intensity. We have to win the duels. But I think we'll be up for this. First 30 will be crucial for sure.
I don’t think that’s true, iirc I think mata or taty we’re putting stuff in their Instagram story that they were in a hotel room the afternoon before
Yes. Jax is 8:1 gators to dawgs as a city but the crowd is 1:1 and the tailgate is close.
I wasn’t aware. I thought after the first game playoff it’s a two game slate.
I’m missing this one too. I work till 11pm every Wednesday. I need to find a new job.
The midfield for that game was Lampard, Iraola and Pirlo. I think Lopez started the first leg in Toronto that NYCFC gave up 2 goals in the last ten minutes to put them in a ridiculous hole.
Where you livin these days?

Was thinking this with every game I’ve watched. As good as we are, Toronto and Atlanta aren’t that much worse then us if at all. A lot of this is going to be intensity and will to win. Something we’ve always seemed to lack in big games.

Every home team has won so far. We need our fans to be there. If you're going, be loud and be intense. Yankee Stadium roars during the Yankees playoffs, let's make Citi Field roar on Wednesday and make Yankee Stadium a thunderdome next week.
I’m back down in Tampa now.
