The Montreal Impact continue to do just enough to advance in the CONCACAF Champions League, advancing to the group stage with a 0-0 draw against Nicaraguan champion Real Esteli yesterday.

Montreal Impact scorer Joey Gjertsen potted the goal that put our team past the Nicaraguan squad for the NA version of the Champions' League. Just another ho-hum moment in the exciting life of Mr. Gjertsen apparently. Consider this to be proof of the further erosion of the art of fist pumping, which was taken to new depths last year when Anna Ivanovic pioneered the mini-pump .

That thunderous sound heard around the Triangle this evening may very well have be the Montreal Impact hammering home the nails in the coffin of the RailHawks 2008 playoff hopes as they took a 2-0 victory over the listless RailHawks at WakeMed Soccer Park. After a 2 hour rain delay, the RailHawks were afforded a golden opportunity to claw their way back into the USL-1 playoff race when Montreal's Pizzolito...

So the CONCACAF Champions League was background noise on my TV last night. The first game was often relegated to a pic-in-pic window, as I found myself more interested in a World Series of Poker final table on ESPN. (I’ve got that damn poker bug again. Winning a tournament in Las Vegas does that, I [...]
