July 2, 20214 yr Welp, I missed the first goal getting a beer. Unfortunate. But seen the rest. Fucking fun shit here at Q2

July 2, 20214 yr Our coach looks like he sold 2 million in life insurance last year. Limu Emuuuuuu..... and Josh.

July 2, 20214 yr Just now, Captain Ron said: Nah, get Messi on a free. He'd score 70 goals. Griezmann actually did say he'd like to play in the US at some point.
July 2, 20214 yr Obviously, 21 Austin FC would beat the 86 Bears. But what if Stuver was in a barcalounger? Who ya got? Edited July 2, 20214 yr by HornOnTheBayou
July 2, 20214 yr Everyone's legs looked dead after the 70th minutes, especially Portland. Well done tonight.
July 2, 20214 yr Games are fantastic in person. We are near the supporters and it is loud AF. The guy and gal that lead the chants do a great job. It is non stop. My only complaint is that they don’t run the stadium clock in stoppage time. Is that an MLS thing or do they just not want the crowd to know how much time is left?
July 2, 20214 yr Just got back, that was fucking fun. Place gets pretty goddamn loud. I've been to two games, bullshitted with a lot of good people, and yet to see a wasted dickhead yet. Glad I opted for the season tickets. Wont go to them all, but will go to more than I planned when I bought them. good times.
July 2, 20214 yr What a fucking blast. Glad I don’t have court tomorrow, because I’m hoarse as hell.First two goals were right in front of us, and we were right next to Gallagher’s fiancée. She was ripshit pumped. This one was a lot of damned fun. Loved to see the aggressive attack, and Ring really did play an amazing match. I counted two miscues along his 1 jillion touches, and a whole lot of damned smart touches.

July 2, 20214 yr I will back off of Pochettino for one week. If he is allowed to move forward and can find space like that in the midfield every week (I realize not all teams will allow that in the midfield), he will be just fine for us. I've been calling for his head for weeks but today was different. He's still not better than Cecilio though. Cecigol had 2 assists himself tonight.
July 2, 20214 yr I was lucky enough to catch the replay. Dreams came true tonight. Congratulations to those who made it possible. These are good days.

The clock stops at 45:00 and 90:00, it’s up to you to keep time after that. It threw me off the few times I’ve been to EPL and UCL games. The running clock you see on TV? Nowhere to be found. Edited July 2, 20214 yr by Captain Ron
July 2, 20214 yr Watched at the brewery down the street. It was very TX OU vibes watching on the outside monitor. We could hear the goals a good 45 seconds before it showed on tv. Had a blast. Would go again. Rode the train it was fun.

Yeah, but most Euro stadiums have an extra time clock as well to let you know how much extra time has elapsed.

July 2, 20214 yr Incredible game last night. I loved it when after a goal they dropped the house lights to all green. Hopefully last night was a tipping point and not just that Portland sucks. I was really impressed with Pereira’s long distribution last night. He’s gonna be a playmaker. East side holla!

I thought there was some camera messed up, or some exposure mess-up, cause the screen went dark. I did not figure it out until Twellman mentioned it in the post-game.

Might vary stadium to stadium, but I remember at most QPR or other English games I've been to, they don't display the clock running past 45 or 90. Why I've already been trained to check my watch or start a stopwatch at these Austin games. Edited July 2, 20214 yr by LonghornSean

July 2, 20214 yr My non-soccer daughter and my wife (no pics of either) went to the game last night. Daughter had a blast - standing up, chanting, high-fiving strangers, etc. We split four season tickets with another family, so we have two tickets that are rotating through our family of four. My soccer daughter and I (no pics of either) got dibs on next Wednesday's game.

Two hipster pseudo-liberal towns with gestapo cops who share a "Keep ______ Weird" slogan as the weird in the two cities continues to disappear.
July 2, 20214 yr Popular Post Right after the game I had to go take a piss so I didn't burst once we got on the train. Walking against the grain of the crowd coming towards me and I notice Claudio Reyna, in a suit, a phone to his ear with a big shit eating grin. Without realizing what I'm doing, suddenly I've grabbing him on both sides of his shoulders and shaking him and screaming: "Fucking holy shit, Claudio, you fucking did it baby"! Rather than head but me or cold cock me (heh), he screams back at me laughing hysterically, and high fived me. (he also turned his phone to me to show me who he was taking to, but I'm blind and couldn't see her tits) Holy fuck that night was ridiculous. p.s. The only thing untrue in this story is the tits; they may have been there, but again I'm blind. (and was drunk)
July 2, 20214 yr Fucking chills on the first two goals. How many people does Q2 hold? https://www.mlssoccer.com/news/recap-austin-fc-4-portland-timbers-1 Edited July 2, 20214 yr by C-Man

July 2, 20214 yr I went to the first game and that place is loud. It felt like it was going explode if they got a goal. Can’t imagine what last night was like

July 3, 20214 yr Our last game before the Gold Cup break is against LA FC this Wednesday; LA has a Saturday game on the road at Real Salt Lake. I like getting them on a short week. After the Gold Cup Break we play Seattle in our first game back on Thursday, July 22. Every other team comes back earlier; Seattle has a game on Sunday, July 18 at Minnesota. I like getting them on a short week as well. Getting 6 points is likely from these two. We've already taken road points off Number 1 Western Conference Leader, Seattle and Number 2, KC (were leading KC 1-0 before a Ring red in other KC road game). Additionally, we've outright beaten Number 4 in the west, Colorado, as well as Number 5 in the west, Minnesota, both on the road. We just thrashed the team sitting in the final playoff spot, Number 7 Portland. Additionally, we took a point off of the east team we get to play this year, Number 5 in the east, Columbus. All of this without a fucking striker. I think we are sitting pretty. I'm starting to get giddy with the possibilities. Playoffs should expected at this point. How's that for glass is half full?
July 3, 20214 yr Pereira being back is huge. If the new signing pans out, letting Cecilio move back to the wing things are looking really good. I'm very interested to see what other new players are added, in particular the third DP.
