Porter always has an excuse lined up...

Beware of faint praise from Porter - obviously our newly-acquired million-dollar midfielder Yuiell failed big time.

I’ll cop to being anti-Polster before, but he has come along way from barely starting in Nevada beer leagues, so while he’s still basically a taller Scott Caldwell, he’s now Mr. Indispensable.

Taylor Twellman called out his former team for playing without urgency or passion in the second half on his game commentary for Apple, but that’s the kind of team we have. The Predators’ winning goal was one of those typical gift penalties on an unthreatening play with Mukhtar going away from the goal, being kicked inadvertently and selling it successfully with a flailing dive, but the Predators seemed to always have men committing to going forward, so the result was basically earned.

Completely different topic, but it sure was nice to hear the cheers for Teal Bunbury, wasn't it?

Is this a dig at Carles Gil? Wouldn't you expect a captain to be the one talking to the players? Or, here's a thought, the COACH might? Like at the half or even prior to the match? It seems to me that over the past season, we've seen more "chippy" incidents than ever, with players really pushing the limits of tackling. I don't recall seeing such strong hits before that make me gasp.

The team got out played again in the second half. Just like most of the games this season.
