Hah, timbers trying to keep the fail going strong.

Do you hate him for anything other than the olympic fail?
Posted on 8/27/12 at 10:51 am to Atom-Z
Pretty much the only games I've watched of his, maybe e was just overwhelmed.
Posted on 8/27/12 at 11:06 am to Atom-Z
He's passed on MLS jobs before IIRC

I hope he does well. I feel bad for him after te Olympics debacle. I know he took it really hard. He's still only 37.

Kinda like what you saw from Portland this weekend. More attacking than what Spencer did.
Rumor has it that he had his hand in the Ricketts trade...been influencing moves since Merritt starting talking to him.

Yeah thats what I figured, I heard those rumors as well.
The Timbers are widening the pitch I wonder if it was at his request.

Probably. Watch how we played in Olympic qualifying.

I think Porter will end up being a good coach. He had us playing attractive and well before the collapse. He should learn from his mistakes

Player fatigue. Kids needed a rest. Brek Shea was a shell of himself by the third match.

I am excited.

They're expected to announce Porter tomorrow. I hope he does well
