MLS Cup Playoffs - November 23 - Red Bulls (Home)

I think that's correct. I suppose the only effect on parking will be that circus-goers will also be parking in the main lots. I'm still tentatively planning on taking the subway, which will work as I live in Queens and the disruption is between Queens and Manhattan.

Circus appears to be small with a very small attendance, so they really shouldn't cause any sort of parking issues.

That’s unfortunate. Hopefully he’s not 100%/doesn’t have 90 minutes in him.
I go back and forth. Yeah I’d rather have a diminished opponent because they are easier to defeat. But there is gratification of defeating a full strength opponent. I’d say I’d rather amny writing this article so Nick Cushing and the club can prepare for a full strength LM instead of being surprised at Game time from him being in the lineup running his ass off

morgan i'm not as worried about. both times we played the red bulls this season, it was (mostly) without forsberg. he is definitely the key to their attack. without forsberg pulling the strings, morgan is less dangerous. but with both of them in the attack, our midfield will need to pay attention and keep forsberg in check. we control forsberg and we control the red bulls.

my guess is after suffering from our high press twice this season, they will probably revert a bit more back to traditional red bull play style and boot the ball long and try to win those second balls. so, i think this game will come down to aggression and energy. the team ready to go pedal to the metal for 90+ mins will be the one who comes out on top. thankfully, we are home so that SHOULD help our boys get hyped if they aren't already.

wouldn't hurt if ice man continues his stellar form as well.

i'd be very happy if those two remaining perfect brackets WIN IT ALL. :)

While I agree in general, I gotta say that win over the covid depleted Philly has become sweeter and sweeter over time!

The author clearly didn't do their research.

The match between the two rival New York soccer clubs comes with a chance to advance to the Eastern Conference Final, a first for the Red Bulls since 2018 and potentially City’s first trip back since winning the MLS Cup in 2021.

I actually know the writer personally, so I'll reach out to him. He's a good guy. Honest mistake, I'm sure.

Weren't we in the conference final two years ago?
 
Gameday Weather and Transit Report, brought to you It's Too Cold and the Train's Messed Up™

Weather: Chilly!
Windy and cold at the stadium today, with feels-like temps down in the 30s. Sunset at 4:33pm LOL

Transit: Ugh
7.png trains running every eight minutes, and only to/from Queensboro Plaza. From Manhattan take the n.pngw.png to Queensboro Plaza and change for the 7.png, or the e.pngf.pngr.png to Roosevelt Ave and change there. Personally, I'm taking the Q66 bus.

Well surely you're not expecting me to reveal my secret sources, eh? LOL


They have all the subway line icons. I originally used the .svg ones because I didn't know there were .png versions in the Build folder. The forum can't show .svg graphics though so I had to change them to .pngs, and I also made them 12 pixels square. Next time will use the original .png files and try them at 14 px or maybe even 16 as the non-yellow ones seem a bit hard to read.

ETA: The main point is that they're image files, which I didn't think to mention. I basically made them small and dropped each image into the text where needed.
