Fire Sucks! GO DALLAS!

It'll be so much fun hoisting the cup in your own stadium.

It's all talk though... last I heard, we've won 3 in a row against the Fire

well said about the interest onthe board...

just wanted to say how proud i am of MLS. it's been 10 years now, and i'm happy to say that the league is 10 times better as well, and i think it'll only get better, too.

w/ that being said, let's get into it...

Four, actually.

2-0
0-2
4-1
2-1



Our last win was a 4-1 drubbing in Naperville in 2003.

Well, I'm a MLS noob, but I'll contribute as much as I can to this thread. Just glad to see Utah have a second Major professional team.

Oh, the first ever Real Salt Lake game against MetroStars, and it was a rainy mess, on to next week @ LA Galaxy.

You should beat them. They're about as useful as Leonard Griffin.

God I'm awesome.

that's funny that you held up that sign and lost.

That's a scarf, dude. And again, you need to start supporting your team on the road before your trash talking gains any credence.

i hope you had fun with the guy who was wearing a condom on his head

Did you even go? Or could you not afford the $10 tickets?

hah, i had better things to do on the weekend.

If you had better things to do on the weekend then actually support the team you claim to, then get off the fucking bandwagon. Methinks you'll be nowhere to be seen when your sorry-ass team misses the playoffs for the third year in a row.

get off the bandwagon? i didn't know mls teams had bandwagons.
