Is TET finally suffering death?

TET's been this slow since September.

If you want to see one of the best midfielders of the last 25 years, try and see Gerrard play. He's not at the same level he was but he's our king, dammit.

We never said TET going slow means it's broken.

I prefer it.

The one MLS game I watched after the world cup was disappointing. The level of play was order of magnitude worse.

I'll admit I'm tired enough that at first I thought that by "160" you meant age, to which is thought that that was a really impressive goal if you were able to pull it off. Good luck with the real one though, they're both really impressive, and have a lot of respect for anyone with the dedication to learn how to do either of those well.

I thought the same thing.

Red bulls, vs someone else. Remember I am spoiled, I saw the cosmos, when they meant something.

You got to stick with it, man. Often when the players aren't as good, the tactical game is more interesting.

Plus the Cosmos era is only really replicated by Real and Barca these days.

The MLS is in a bit of a quandary. The domestic game needs fans to grow at this point, but new fans to the sport are likely to get their needs overseas where the football is better.

Would you be following NYCFC this season if interested? The Red Bulls seem a while out from you.

Red bulls are on mass transit, they are pretty easy to get too, Yankee Stadium, where nycfc will play, is more of a pain in the ass for me and the seats are not oriented for soccer.
