2017 Whitecaps

[Dude]

Pray for rain. Anything to give an advantage. Crank the AC; increase the density in the air, slow down movements and flight of path.

Why Dude, do you say that?

Well good sir, density of normal 21 degree air at sea level os 0.075 lbs / cubic foot. Currently, in most of Mexico, those guys are used to playing at 30 degrees, and in Monterrey, at an elevation of 1770'. Due to elevation, it actually reduces the density to 0.0684 lbs / cf.

Lowering the temperature to, say, 5 deg C will increase density to 0.0793. Thus, slowing the path of flight on a ball, and increasing normal air resistance.

The increase in air density will favor the local team's lungs more, as the cold air discomfort, and cold muscles, will more than offset any extra oxygen they can draw in.

Science wins again.

Not enough of a difference you say? Well good sir, you may be right. But I say we need every advantage we can get in chasing a miracle.

You should send this to the Csa.

Caps should have put the Tigres up in a hotel in Whalley

 

[Dude]

Oh, and freeze dry their locker rooms. Oops, the heating is broken, and it's pumping in freezing cold AC. Noting we can do about it now.

I did that to The CRA guy that audited me a couple years ago. Works well

Fcuk that, should have been right on Scott Road, and they should have enlisted the ST supporters to keep them company.

 

[Gurps]

Good idea @Dude! Then fill them up with spicy indian food and watch nature take it course. Guaranteed win....

 

[Dude]

Gurps, if you can arrange for a gaggle of saris clad babes to bring that food to their hotel tonight, that would be a huge win for us, I think. Hell, maybe grease some palms, and perhaps other types of nature will take it's course? Maybe?

Weak bowels and weak legs, guaranteed win.

A shower of any kind is a welcome change for you sid. Welcome back.

[djones]

So was Kakuta

 

[dutch13]

Interesting... Manneh hasn't cracked the game day squad for Columbus, Coach has concerns with his conditioning...

[mtkb]

On both goals. Got turned and tried to dive and stick a leg in with a lunge.

A lot of the goals they've given up have gone through Harvey, one way or another... going forward he's ok, defending he's absolutely shambolic...

 

[Yoda]

Dean and Waston have not played well either.
Not liking Waston anymore. We can't keep giving up 3-4 goals a game.

 

[cascadesoccer]

Absolutely outclassed again tonight. Tough start to the year

 

[utah]

Agree fully on Harvey.
DeJong was brutal in the first half.

 

[Regs]

Nice of TSN to pick up the WFC2 match yesterday... the snow in Langley was crazy!!!

 

[bulljive]

The Caps are absolutely painful to watch. 9 out of 10 games I want my 2 hours back. Waston is great at winning aerial challenges but once the ball is on the carpet hes a Valley player. Sorry but you can't be a good team at this level without some high end players. I'd argue we don't have a single one. We need 2-3 but for some reason despite our owner having the money to pay for a new building we won't pay for some top talent. I don't get it honestly.

 

[PV]

Coaching change coming soon. 3 years and no results. Each year Robbo makes a number of roster changes and the team still keeps losing. You can either say that he does not know how to evaluate talent and he ends up with bad signings or you can say that he doesn't know how to use the talent he has.

 

[Yoda]

Does Robbo actually make the picks? Or is it upper management that says, here's the new guys, make it work. Kinda like linden and Canucks, I doubt Willie picks who they do and don't sign on his own.
