Oh my god are we peaking too early with excitement levels? (Lol, nope)

[AppleJack]

I hope we win tomorrow. Wouldn't that be something?

[Belvis Noland]

so, it's supposed to be about 15degrees tomorrow night.  does weather favor one side? 

serious question #2 - do they keep the balls warm on the sideline? 

serious question #3 - if cold balls, will CJ suck more or less at head balls?

TIA - looking forward to watching this footie match on the tele.

[sunny_cat]

I'd say the cold weather favors us.

houston already beat us at home on a ridiculously cold night in the playoffs (in 2011)

[Tobias]

I don't recall it being that cold that day. Maybe it was. Don't think this cold though.

You're thinking of the Colorado game in 2011. The Houston game was sunny. May have been cold, but the sleeting you're thinking of was the conference semifinals against Colorado.

They were talking about Houston and if he wished it was against someone else.  Robb said that they originally targeted the Houston coach and approached him and couldn't get him.  Said that Houston is the one team he checks scores and standings on all season and that he is happy we are playing them and wouldn't want it any other way.

Said that everyone should be in their seats by 6:15 because they are doing something before the game they have never done before to try to rowdy up the fans.  Wouldn't slip any other deets on this.

They talked about how intense of a fan he is.  He said that he has Mark Donovan and His wife as their guests and how when we lose he has to just walk away.  Said that his wife gets on him for being rude but Donovan always tells him to do what he has to do because he gets it.  Thought it was funny that you hang with the Chiefs GM and abruptly leave after the game because of how the game went. 

I love how it seems that Robb feels as strongly as any fan about the team and isn't all extra robotic and cold like the Hunts and other owners are.  It's like he bought it so that he could make it better and win because he didn't like bad soccer rather than just to make money.

[sunny_cat]

He's the Mark Cuban of MLS. And yeah, I've heard to be in our seats by 6:20. Hoping for something awesome. Don't really know what to expect. Thanks, CNS.
