Revvies lost; will cheer on Real.
A beaten down and beaten up Revolution lost to the Chicago Fire last night. I made it home at half time and got to watch the 2nd half as it happened. Of course I wanted to cheer them on all the way to the MLS Cup, but the reality is even if they had won last night they would have most likely been without two more starters going into the next round. Midfielder Jeff Larentowicz was taken to the hospital in the first half with a possible broken ankle and midfielder/acting team captain Shalrie Joseph was playing with a sprained knee.
After competing in three tournaments outside regular MLS play I feel like the Revvies needed to be done with the season to rest and recouperate. MLS teams just don't have the depth of players to be consistently competitve when there's an onslaught of injuries. They're still my favorite and I'll be right there cheering them on next season!
As for the rest of this season I'll throw my cheering weight behind Real Salt Lake (for non-soccer fans Real is pronounced ray-al, and not like reel). GO RSL!!!
