Game 2: at New York Red Bulls

Fresh off a correct score prediction from last week, CTID tries to go 2/2 on the predictions tip. OK, so I got the goal scorers wrong, but I'll make up for it this week.

New York Red Bulls


What you need to know:
JPA and Altidore are the only non-shitty parts of this team.

New additions:
Jaeger, scooter for Claudio Reyna.

Biggest hole to fill:
Giants Stadium, at least for this year.

2008 Prediction:
Like the nimble co-ed who thinks she can hold her liquor, the Energy Drinks will start off strong, but eventually end up all wobbly and passed out on a park bench in front of their apartement. So, they're missing the playoffs. Also, if Jozy Altidore transfers to Europe, add the phrase "Roofies" to the previous analogy.

Game prediction:
Moffat scores again, and Robbie Rogers tallies for the first time as well. Both are assisted by Guillermo Barros Schelotto. JPA gets his first goal, but that's it, and the Crew win 2-1.

Finally, if you're going to the game, here a video of what to expect from the NY fans, especially the Long Island fans:
