I haven't watched a game in so long, I'm surprised that diving is still such a big part of it.

Oh yeah - I get that - it's just embarrassing for the sport.Chef Boi RD wrote: ↑Sat Dec 06, 2025 12:34 pmIt’s an unfortunate tactic to keep the defenders scared from being aggressive while checking so the ball carrier can have more freedom
Still the 'Caps came back and controlled play - let's hope they keep it up in the 2nd.

Once the yellow cards get out of the way in the beginning of the game the defenders have to lay off allowing for more offence in the game. It can be frustrating for sure. It’s all chess playing.Cornuck wrote: ↑Sat Dec 06, 2025 12:36 pmOh yeah - I get that - it's just embarrassing for the sport.Chef Boi RD wrote: ↑Sat Dec 06, 2025 12:34 pmIt’s an unfortunate tactic to keep the defenders scared from being aggressive while checking so the ball carrier can have more freedom

Flashback to Sept 9, 1979 - the Vancouver Whitecaps had just won the Soccer Bowl and were back in Vancouver to celebrate. They went from the airport to downtown for a parade, and I caught this shot of Captain John Craven with the trophy.

Miami was doing a lot better earlier when they challenged the play - now they're sitting back and helping us out.

a couple of HUGE momentum swings, and we never got it back. That second goal seemed to kill them.

Great game, Whitecaps had an opportunity to win but couldn’t find the net. A couple mistakes and Miami scored on them.
