Me too
Rode in the elevator to the presser with a bunch of Galaxy guys, Ruiz, Alvaro Pires, and basically all the Galaxy guys who didn't dress. "I wonder what Landon said to Patrick," Julian Valentin wondered out loud. So do I, Jules.
Donovan is just mad because he got his clock cleaned. The knock was clean though, hard but clean. No Galaxy players even had a problem with it, just Donovan. If it had really been a dirty play you think one of the Galaxy players would have stood up for him.
I Ianni was getting away with a lot of contact on LD off the ball in the second half. It was especially egregious in the run up to that goal. I was guessing it had something to do with that, but I too would love to know for sure.
That was a cheap shot by Ianni? Really? The ref didn't even call a foul on that hell Galaxy players didn't even have a problem with that play. It was a simply shoulder check completely legal and its not like a leg would have been broken or something.
I don't think the shoulder check was actually was the problem (it was legal). Landon probably saw that as the one he should play up. Ianni was all over him the whole game - and not in a legal way. Landon's jersey and neck have Patrick's finger prints all over them. We need CSI to come in an investigate why the linesmen and ref couldn't see what 24000 of us saw. In any case, the taunt was to say "Look A**H*le, don't F**K with me or you will piss me off and I'll score. Now go back to UCLA.

"HOW DO YOU LIKE ME NOW?!?!" or something probably. Cool story though.

I'd rather have that disallowed goal than a call on Ianni.

Ianni was all over Donovan on both goals. It was good to see LD get mad and start converting. The first header goal was class all the way.
Donovan should've been given a yellow.
Such a childish reaction.
It's called passion, Phillip.
Yellow card, indeed. It was an unnecessary cheap shot by Ianni.
I think he invited him out to dinner with him and Bianca after the game. He said, "Don't be late! Bianca has a 6AM shoot tomorrow!"
