Two weeks of ups and downs!

By: Daryl | July 21st, 2008

Sorry everybody for my absence of non-writing like I stated in my previous post there was a company shake-up and my work load has increased significantly.

So lets get down to it..sha’ll we?

During the time gone I have attended both Superliga matches with the utter and peer joy of seeing us demolish Atlante F.C. to the hugely disappointing and dirty loss to Chivas. One quick note on the Chivas game. First of all you Chiva’s fans are disgraceful and I hope to never see the likes of you in our stadium again…from the seat stealing to the verbal abuse given when I clearly respected your team is just not acceptable. Plus coming into Robertson and acting like the Dynamo are a nothing team is out-right disrespectful oh boy do I wish we would have scored so I could have turned around and yelled out something in Spanish to the very rude and obvious seat jacker’s behind me.

Anyways the game was a dirty dirty match with 3 Chivas players leaving the game on a stretcher which was I’m sure pretty embarrassing especially to the player who got a bloody nose and had to leave on a stretcher…. pathetic.

We lost unfortunately 0-1, I left the game feeling pretty good because we played extremely well considering we were missing a few key players due to suspension and injury. Then we traveled to DC a game which I didn’t get to watch but was over-joyed to see we edged out United 3-1 to advance to the semi’s of the tournament. The goals…courtesy of Holden, Rico, and former United star Bobby Boswell (That one has to hurt..United fans.) pretty much sealed the deal with reports suggesting the Houston were the stronger more dominate side throughout the match.

So as it stands we sit 5th in the Western Conference and we now have a spot in the semi’s thanks the to 3-1 score line at RFK. We are dangerously close to the cellar but a win will catapult us up a few places so no need for drastic measures just yet.

Anyways enough about game news there are a few things I haven’t touched on….

-You know that guy Nate? you may have heard of him came to Houston from LA and scored a boat load of goals…well he is back with the Dyanmo..I for one am very happy with this.

-The 2 super Canadians, D-Ro and Onstad were named as reserves in the MLS-All Star game.

-And finally, our very own Stuart Holden and Patrick Ianni were named the Peter Nowak’s U.S. Olympic team roster!!!!
