Salt Lake to Play US Cup Qualifier Tonight (Poorly)
By: Kyle | April 30th, 2008The youngsters over at Salt Lake are going to try and get into the US Open Cup tonight. The match will kick off at 7pm and will be broadcast…nowhere. Honestly, I hate Salt Lake enough that I would, in fact, watch if it were on TV. Is that sad? Yeah, I think that’s sad.
Really, a game like this will probably go to who takes it more seriously, but I wouldn’t be surprised if both sides fielded a somewhat decent lineup. Last year, the Rapids beat Real in a qualifying match at Dick’s. The funny thing is, Salt Lake fielded their starters and the Rapids didn’t, still winning 2-1. If Salt Lake does it again, it will probably be their match to lose.
I post this mainly because it’s good news for the Rapids either way the match goes. If Salt Lake loses…well, that’s just fun. If they manage to slip through, they then face Columbus, who will surely dispatch them. The only bad news is that the Rapids don’t have a chance to eliminate them again this year for the third year in a row, but oh well. As long as Salt Lake loses, I’m happy (I’m a very happy guy).
UPDATE: Real Salt Lake 4-0 San Jose. If the Rapids hadn’t been shut out by San Jose, I would write some clever insult disparaging the significance of this win here.
