In general, when I hear someone complain about referees, I dismiss it. The ref is too easy a scapegoat upon whose cereal coaches, players, and fans figuratively shit. But last night’s best-versus-best match-up, in my opinion, was legitimately marred by a flurry of poor judgment. Yellow cards tend to lose their “I mean business” effect when you give out 265 of them in a match… and 3 penalty kicks—all of which were questionable—made it tough to discern who deserved to win from who actually did.
AAAAAAANYWAY, Chicago won on a penalty in the 95th, and I continue to feel disgust for Blanco. He is increasingly lazy, sloppy, floppy and slow. He’ll fit right in with the rest of his Mexican squad next week. ZAP :O
MATCH HIGHLIGHT: Sacha Kljestan audibly telling Fire coach Denis Hamlett to “Shut the fuck up! Shut the fuck up! Fuck you, bitch!” Classy!
