Yeah, we all saw that coming weeks in advance and we're armchair experts - you'd think he would have figured it out before now since complaining after the fact does nothing; do it earlier and maybe MLS shifts a game like they do in the EPL.Now Jay Heaps is complaining about playing Saturday night and then again for the USOC Cup on Tuesday night. He is a moron for not managing to maximize his chances of winning hardware.
DisCo should rescind this card by all means or else fuck MLS.
DisCo is a kangaroo court. They see what they want to see. Rescinding Bravo's is a no-brainer to anybody that believes in fair play and the spirit of the game.
They updated the disciplinary report page and Bravo is out. My earlier point was that, unless I am incorrectly reading the rules (and I very well may be), DisCo had no authority to review, let alone set aside, the red card for Bravo because we already used up our two opportunities to appeal
I'm not sure about the fine print of the rules regarding DisCo's authority, but if the Spirit of the Game is to punish those that weren't caught by the referee (which they do), then the Spirit of the Game should be that they review every Card and rescind those that were incorrectly awarded. Their role should not simply be to penalize unless a team uses a limited supply of challenges - they should be keeping the game clean of reckless play on the field by both players and referees.They updated the disciplinary report page and Bravo is out.

If we ever get that ref again, I'd be content with one of our guys teeing up to make a long pass and slicing it into the ref's face from 5yrds away - he's part of the playing field.
I get what you're saying, but it would have to be reduced, IMO, to decisions that are straight reds. Reviewing every yellow would be a bit tenuous and highly subjective (not that reviewing straight reds wouldn't be subjective).I'm not sure about the fine print of the rules regarding DisCo's authority, but if the Spirit of the Game is to punish those that weren't caught by the referee (which they do), then the Spirit of the Game should be that they review every Card and rescind those that were incorrectly awarded.

How about reviewing send offs?I get what you're saying, but it would have to be reduced, IMO, to decisions that are straight reds. Reviewing every yellow would be a bit tenuous and highly subjective (not that reviewing straight reds wouldn't be subjective).
That's what I'm saying. Review straight reds automatically, I'm cool with that.How about reviewing send offs?
I would. Something that impacts the current and future game because of a red, either strait or via two yellows should be looked at. How many extra reviews is that a week, a handful?That's what I'm saying. Review straight reds automatically, I'm cool with that.
Send offs due to two yellows I wouldn't.
But which yellow do you look at? The first or the second? Or both?I would. Something that impacts the current and future game because of a red, either strait or via two yellows should be looked at. How many extra reviews is that a week, a handful?

You look at all reds and second yellows, and here's why. Those are the fouls that lead to a double penalty - the loss of a player in that game and the suspension for the next game. You can't change the impact on game #1, but a player unjustly removed from the second game is an extra unfair outcome when it can easily be reviewed.But which yellow do you look at? The first or the second? Or both?
Why don't you look at the other yellows throughout the game as they could have had an impact on the way particular players approach tackles, 50/50 balls, etc. Other yellows have an impact on yellow-card accumulation that could lead to suspension, etc.
If they decided to review send-offs due to two yellows, it cannot just stop there.
Again, I'm cool with them automatically reviewing straight reds. I think the review of any yellow card would be way too much, and ultimately potentially open the league to other potential implications.
