It does look awesome. Since I don't have a team in St. Louis, I'm trying to find a team to root for...any help?

KC. Great new stadium, exciting young US National Team striker (Teal Bunbury) who is lighting [expletive] up and burning [expletive] down and geographically it makes sense.

I'm really happy with everything except the name. But everyone hates it, so a nickname will be agreed upon shortly, I imagine (I'm for Goose Hollow). I'll also remember all the baseball I saw there through the years somewhat wistfully (the beer garden was right on the first base line, there was a dollar beer night).

Our midfield is getting healthy, Nagbe and Zizzo go tonight, so hopefully the offense builds to the front a little better. And we signed a Colombian MF yesterday.

Tonight's going to be a blast. The energy is going to be special. I can't wait.

In the words of Rachel Black: Fun, fun, fun, fun.
What a night.

It looked bananas on TV. Portland represented. I want to be Timber Thrill when I grow up and cut slabs and hang from rafters etc.

Wes Matthews actually broke his high school soccer scoring record, Rudy and Nic are from Spain and France, and Aussie Patty Mills is wearing the Timbers Army scarf.

Cool article about the (possibly) next MLS franchise.

That was probably one of the quickest 2nd touches I've seen...especially since he was off balance.

I don't think he was off balance. His ability to maintain balance while falling is part of what was so impressive about that.
