If anyone else is having issues with atdhe, that one works for me…

I am in absolute disbelief
Hartman was out of his mind. If this were anyone else, RSL would’ve won 9-0. Incredible.
Hartman showed why
either he or Rimando deserved keeper of the year. It was a very impressive effort by Kevin and a hot keeper can be the difference maker in the playoffs as RSL saw last year.
Those two were my choices
KC was stupid to lose Hartman. Now he is absolutely tearing it up. It will be interesting to see if the knee gives him trouble, he seemed to be having issues after the hit he took after he dove down. WIthout him, Dallas is nothing.

Condolences
As a neutral (DCU fan) decided to root for RSL, great effort, great atmosphere… 5 more min. and RSL would have had it in.
It was a fun match
The crowd was great, I was a bit disappointed in a couple of RSL players tonight but they fought until the final minute and it was a fun match. I will say that I would never vote for David Ferriera as the MVP after watching him spend the entire second half diving and wasting time, that was the only thing I really counted as a negative in the match.
Great game, great season
You went down fighting to a really good team.
A few unlucky breaks, a few missed opportunities. Collen Warner taking two touches after being played in perfectly by Beckerman has to really be coming back to haunt him. And then it looked like Espindola’s deflection in front of the net late should have gone in, but Hartman played it too well with his low outstretched legs
Onto the CCL for RSL.

It was a good run
I don’t think Collen will be impacted too much, he is a young player who has had limited minutes with the first team and I would say if you look at the total efforts and out put of the minutes he played that it holds very well for his future.
As you know the better team doesn’t always win, defending MLS Cup is a very tough thing to do, even more now with the format of the CCL, but I have nothing but pride and respect for what Real Salt Lake has been able to accomplish in 2010 and I can’t wait for early CCL action next year and another run for a trophy.
Wait...
Do you mean to imply then that the best team didn’t win this series?
I might disagree with you there.

No not what I said
I don’t think the best team won last night. I think Dallas was the better team in leg one, without much doubt. I do think RSL was the better team last night, but not fortunate or lucky enough to get the second or third goal
Irony
I find it funny that we can have an amazing, record-setting season where we almost get the Supporter’s Shield, and then lose in the first round, while in 09 we had an underwhelming, disappointing season (until the playoffs) where we won the whole thing.
