I was screaming at the tv, NO RED NO RED HE CANT SCORE FROM THERE!!!!  Oh well, he isnt the first CB to lose a footrace with Quioto, I thought he had done just enough to force him wide and I was happy not to see him jump in and (like a young defender is apt to do) give up a penalty.  Other than that, he didnt look much worse than Gonzalez.  Still nice to see him get a HG contract.  

Yeah, but a quality PK attempt to redeem himself...

I don't think we are going to be suffering from a lack of goals this season.

In either direction, sigh ...
 

needs to work on his work rate. caught being lazy a few times. 
and any partner of Gonzalez has to know he has to cover for Gonzalez's no pace

HAHA, I watched Dayne for the first half, he looked solid, went to put the kid to bed, came back and it was 3-0.  OYYY VE!!  

Ah the voice of positivity.  It may have been SJ, but he took his chance when it was there.  Considering most of us thought it was a typo when MLS predicted he would start, he did pretty damn well.  Full marks for his assist, looks like he could have had a couple as he was all over the highlights, right side, left side, had a wicked shot blocked, taking corners.  He didnt look like a guy playing his second MLS game.  Hats off to him, it took alot of USL grinding but maybe he has found a MLS home in Houston.  

Jordan Hamilton is going to say this?? I've heard the TFC side of this 1000 times.

Fraser has already put in 2 years with TFC2 after signing for them when he was 18.  And never got a senior contract until just short of his 20th b-day.  David would have saw that when he was 16-17 years old, no back to the future needed for that.  Maybe he figured that he didnt want to spend his teenage years in USL and went somewhere that might give him a shot ASAP.  Because he made up his mind to stay out of MLS academy long before that, someone warned him off.

DO you think he'll get many chances after Priso and Okello played well in CL??  Do you think he'll get more playing time when Poz and Osorio come back into the starting line up??  I dont think I have ever seen TFC so depleted with injuries and they chose younger guys, and have even younger guys with more hype (Rutty) yet to see.  Its not just writing on the wall anymore, its chiseled into stone.

Yeah but about 3 years too late. Molinaro should get in and interview Jordan Hamilton, see if he wants to spill the beans on Vanney and player development at TFC.  That prob wouldnt go over to well with the management though.   

The draft is such a crap shoot.  Short seasons against dodgy opposition, who knows exactly what you are getting.  TFC has drafted plenty of CDN though, just not the ones that have stuck around in MLS.  

Just a reminder for all the non cable cutters, TSN3 should have StClair kicking off MLS coverage tonight.  I hope the heir apparent has a solid injury free season and can keep Miller on the bench.  Maybe we'll even get a Montgomery sighting.  

This is almost as informitive as the "when will we overtake mexico" thread.  Lets recap, People are different, and Tajon may or may not flourish in a different culture/language based on a myriad of different reasons of which none of us have knowledge of how he would react to.  

Not to keep derailing the Rutty thread, but when I see DeG on TSN I cant help but get over the Fury baloney bit by bit.  I cant stand Caldwell and Dunfield was terrible when he started too but has grown on me.  Maybe DeG isnt a natural, but I would rather see them at least try and give the CDN a chance. 
What are the chances of Rutty making the lineup for opening day?  Seems like Nelsen and Osorio are probably ready to go.  Shame that TFC2 doesnt start until end of May, would be nice for some of the kids to get fit in USL-1.  

I dont know, 15min left, you bring out Priso, why not put in the purest DM you have on the bench to help the team hold on??  Start Bradley and Fraser together, no way, but at the end of the game its not a like for like switch, you want someone to help close out the game.  That seemed like a perfect time for Fraser. 
I guess we'll see if it was all part of a plan.  Rest Fraser, keep his legs fresh so that he can take Bradleys spot on opening day. HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!  If thats what happens then we'll know if Armas has real Huevos Rancheros.  

Also tonight, Tyler Pasher may appear for Houston vs. San Jose at 8:00 p.m. ET (DAZN).

Not sure if this has been posted, but here are the financial details on the renaming of Pacific FC's stadium.
