marenpaisley | Move along - it's just another sports post!

So, I've been kind of out of it when it comes to soccer lately, what with the Phillies winning the World Series and all (wow, just thinking about that never gets old!). So imagine my surprise when I went to MLSnet.com and saw that the Eastern Conference champs were the Columbus Crew? I know that they've been phenomenal this year, but I still never expected them to get this far because...well, they're the Crew.

And now I see that they might be playing the final against either the Red Bulls or... RSL?! Wow! This is actually pretty exciting. What a stress relief not having your team in the finals can be! ; )

ETA: And the Red Bulls have won! This final is going to be pretty exciting because for the first time in a long while it won't feature DC United, the Revs (::sad::), LA Galaxy, or some incarnation of the old Earthquakes/Dynamo. Those are pretty much the teams I remember seeing in finals in the past since becoming a fan of MLS. Gotta make sure I clear my afternoon schedule (lol!) for Sunday, November 23rd!

ETA2: Since when is New York a part of the Western Conference? ::is confused::
