Timbers here, there, everywhere. Loads to talk about what they've been doing, where they are, and where they're going. Let's get down to business.
Speaking of business, the Timbers continue to get down to some with their epic road trip tonight against AC St. Louis at 5:10 p.m. Pacific Time on the internets and radio as per usual. St. Louis as been at or near the bottom of the table for much of the season, had some financial issues from the get-go, and have already had a head coaching change mid-season. They are ripe for the picking and the Timbers should win this match thus continuing their great run of play.
Speaking of great run of play, the Timbers started it up last Thursday night with a victory over the Vancouver Whitecaps 2-1 in Vancouver, BC. Victories for the Timbers in the cosmopolitan Vancouver have been few and far between so the fact that a win occurred AND that it wrapped up the 2010 campaign for the fan-driven Cascadia Cup was all around pure excellence. Kip Kesgard took his yearly pilgrimage north to write about it here. Penalty Kicks, Futty Danso goodness, and all kinds of fun can be found in the video highlights:
Speaking of more news; coin tosses, coaches, and Man City craziness all follow through the jump . . .
