Wow.
That game was amazing.
Not only did the boys net 6 purely amazing goals, but wow; the atmosphere was incredible. I've never had a chance to see Sam's Army in person before last night, but let me just tell you: those guys plus the D.C. Screaming Eagles make for one heck of a fan section!
We had a mini-fan section sitting by us for a while but they got the boot about 20 minutes in when the people who actually had tickets for those seats showed up. Props to Jeff (or whatever his name was) for being nice and helping us get some autographs and almost get on ESPN Classic.
I got to talk to Sacha before the game and I'm pretty sure he remembered me from this summer. Well, I hope he did, anyways... We also got to meet and get autographs from Mo Edu, Freddy Adu, Orozco, Heath Pierce, Jozy, Charlie Davies, Jose Francisco Torres, and maybe one or two more that I just can't recall right now.
Oh my goodess. How glad are you that Bob called up Torres??? I am ECSTATIC. He is so fiiiiiiine!!! Oh, and he likes rap music. Dude was listnening to it to get hyped for the game.
I may have to go over to the dark side and buy a Pachuca jersey...
Anyways, Torres played really well; he had a great shot that sailed just over the crossbar. Speaking of great plays; our boy Sacha had 2 BEAUTIFULL assists! I actually count the second one as a goal on his part, but whatever... I love Chingy so no hard feelings.
I still can't believe I got to see the full national team in action! This is a big deal for me obviously. One of the best parts was seeing Clint Dempsey. Dude is for sure my fave international player. Oh, and I got to see Brad again! I'm like, UBER happy right now...
Later ya'll,
