I can't say the trip to Salt Lake to see Pants take howitzer shot after shot yesterday was a great time. [Although the weather, mountains, city, food etc were fantastic.] But it was interesting to see how much better RSL is this year. Gozo in contrast to Antony is not only fast, but ruthless and deadly. Luna is a guy you hate unless he's yours... and then you love him. They were disciplined and ruthless on the counter. It seemed like half of their players were able to blast shots on frame with velocity I haven't seen from a Timber in a couple years.
They were a 9th place team last year that we eliminated. A couple player changes and they're a different team.
If I was an RSL fan yesterday, I'd have really enjoyed watching my team. I hold hope somewhere that we can see the same kind of organization, livelihood, and ruthlessness in the green and gold
