The menace beat the Minnesota Thunder (USL1) tonight 1-0 playing the entire second half down a player (Danilo was red carded). I do not know most of the details as I missed the first 60 minutes of the webcast and could not be there.
Next stop is Kansas City Wizards (MLS) in the 3rd round, it's away again since the zTards refuse to go on the road for the open cup.
More details will follow when I get filled in.

So we had a friendly against the Latino All-Stars, i'm still trying to figure out who these people are. Was a typical friendly - reserves on the field, Jake Settle actually stopped a PK. Was just a good hangout time for most of the day.
Until the understorm. We were going to stay in the stand until the end, but then Fanatic's daughter walked by with her hair standing up and we decided it was time to get off the giant lightning rod.
Fan Participation Report
This crowd was a bunch of zombies.
Who's your daddy Referee?
Oh where do I start on this referee. Let's see... obvious PK in our favor not awarded, didn't stop the match when lightning was overhead, doesn't enforce the LOTG (like on goal kicks it has to LEAVE the box), etc. Just a really bad referee - but what can we expect with the world cup being unable to get decent refs!

Turns out if (when) we beat the Thunder we go to Kansas City. Why couldn't we get RSL or someone like that? or atleast a MLS team that will travel to us.[ add comment ] ( 31 views ) | permalink |

Next Wednesday's target is the Minnesota Thunder. We will be playing away for this game and the team is setting up a fan bus, but some people will probably be driving up themselves as well.
For those of us not fortunate enogh to go on a person going by the name of Zathras on BigSoccer asked about interest in their webcast of the play-by-play.

Last night the Menace gelded the Mustang lengeds in a 3-2 victory with the Menace's Joe K making an awesome bicycle-kick save off the line when the Mustangs managed to get Fernstrum tied up.
Menace scored first on a classic Boltnar PK earned by brilliant play from Armin. The Keeper had an attitude and was all hopping around and Boltnar just played ice man and froze him and owned him.
This was the only goal of the first half. The second half got off to a hectic start with the Mustangs and Menace exchanging slugs in the form of three goals in a 5 minute period in a Mustangs, Menace, Mustangs pattern. It was tied until late in the game when Disang put it in the back of the net for the win.
The Menace play the Minnesota Thunder of USL1 next wednesday in the 2nd Round of the Open Cup.
Fan Participation Report
Fan Participation at this game continues to show that more and more people are getting fired up. Those of us Red Army members present did some chanting but other people in the crowd were doing some of our chants without us, or their own personal variations thereof (such as some middle/high school girls calling for Hamburger to get on the field :D). A couple of decent jeers for the refs included "do you have to have the mustangs permission to call a foul?" and "How much are the mustangs paying you?" not to mention my own yelling at him to call both ways and stating that his calls were rubbish.
Who's your daddy Referee?
Yet again we got stuck with a crappy ref, infact this same guy has refereed for us on several occasions. He let the Geldings get away with just about anything they wanted short of the most obvious fouls. Hopefully we'll be getting better refs in the USOC now that we're playing pro teams.
