Nice. I remember when the Columbus Clippers moved into a new ballpark, they said that they were going to put a dirt track in the old one. But instead of doing that, they allowed it to fall into a tremendous state of disrepair.

Plans to redevelop old Cooper Stadium site approved | WSYX

That was a half baked plan from a guy who didn't have enough capitol to pull it off. He begged the city to bail him out and they opted not too. Residual angst from the Nationwide Arena fiasco.

Not an own goal for Spain, but might as well have been.

Columbus Crew had a Massive party downtown for the new stadium. Entertaining game to boot. 

Having 20.5k Fans chant "F U Precourt!" reminded me I'm not the only one still hung up on that A-hole millionaire who sabotaged the team and try to swindle his way down to Austin.

Those slow-rolling PKs freak me out a little.

Anyway, Viva Italia!

Wow! Hell was Real last night.

Cincinnati scored the fastest goal in MLS this year with a 33 second WTF moment. Cincinnati got their 2nd goal, Columbus had one of their defenders sent off, and 6 yellow cards were issued in the 1st half. All look hopeless for our Black and Gold champions ... 

until the 45+ minute where Zelarayan (Columbus's all star midfielder) blasted a rocket from 30 yards out that the goalie could only drop his jaw and watch zoom past for a goal. Invigorated our heroes came out second half (still a man down) but made TTBU (That Team Below Us, I'm telling you TTUN should borrow this acronym) seem like they were missing the player, and in the 77th minute Zelarayan drew numerous defenders and made a beautiful assist to a rookie sub to score the equalizer. Fans were literally quoting Gorden Gee's famous "Our Greatest Win Ever." for the amazing comeback TIE Columbus just had with Cincinnati.
