I have to say I find it fascinating J's created this thread.
Can't wait to go to the game on Thursday. My friend gets Budweiser Pavilion seats once a year through his work, so I'm going to live it up with free beer and food. (And so far, every game I've attended, the Timbers have won.) I've really enjoyed watching the team this year. Porter has the guys attacking more consistently - without the standing around I noticed so often last year -, and there's been a significant upgrade in their coordination. I've even been able to get my dad interested in MLS this year, which I consider a good thing.
@Curry, everything is setting you off, lately. What happened, man?
