The Cup...is taken

The MLS Cup was today, a showdown between the New York Red Bulls and the Columbus Crew. As everyone remembers, New York beat us last weekend for the ticket to the game, so I was not at all voting for them to win. Plus, I actually like Columbus, so I wanted them to win. The Columbus guys all did a thing where nobody shaved their beards until the end of this game. Some of the beards looked pretty good, but most of them were all scraggly and not very good looking. One of the guys-Frankie Hejduk, has long hair, and with his beard, he looked kinda like Jesus. I'm not even the one that thought of that-PJ made that comment during the game. And good news, Columbus won! They finished the game with a score of 3-1. It was a great game.
My favorite parts though, weren't even in the game. Before the game, the commentators were sitting around talking, and one of them, Alexi Lalas said that if New York defeated RSL, and moved into the final spot for the cup, he would shotgun a can of Red Bull. Well, they did, so he did, and it was actually pretty funny. He didn't do it right at all, so he looked kinda dumb. But good for him, he actually stayed true to his word.
The game was pretty awesome, and I know that nobody really cares about the game, especially since RSL wasn't even in it, but coming up with something new every day is hard, so I'm just trying to finish this month with writing every day.The game was good, the celebrations were better. Columbus guys sure know how to dance!
