Very likely. My guess is probably a noon time game in July when the temperature is over 90°. I hear those are popular.

The 2003 game at Giants Stadium - the petroleum smell coming off the Fieldturf as it baked in the sun that day is still with me. It was like watching a game in a Sears Tire & Auto showroom.

So many wins from that day: 

 

The FO telling me the thought it was a good way to get kids & camps out to the game.

 

Jimmy Conrad nearly passing out & requiring IV fluids.

 

Watching people drink spiked iced coffee at 9am in Lot 16A.

 

Thinking I was getting sick from the smell of burning plastic. 

 

Never change, Metro.

This game and the Chicago game a few years ago at RBA were the hottest I've ever been at a sporting event.  Absolutely gross.

I prefer a reschedule. Right now I think this match would be 3 points for KC. Gives us a couple months to gel as a team.

 

With Europa, Champs League, FA Cup and EPL all heating up in March, I can be patient for the benefit of Metro in the end of season standings. All about the endgame.

I thought the IRE/ITA WC94 game at Giants Stadium was the hottest I ever experienced, it was easily one of the few times I would have welcomed a downpour during a game. That day was a walk in the park compared to the 2003 game.

The Bon Jovi reschedule was pretty bad as well. Or maybe it was just absurd, I don't remember.

Good maybe MDG and Ali gets fired.  Wasn't that one of the reasons someone got fired for that game that reached 100 and felt like 110?

NY-KC was super hot, though honorable mention to that USA- Argentina game back in 2009 or so; Shit was that about as hot as I remember being, full stop, as a human. (temperature wise)

 

Back to this game, it's supposed to be 54 and sunny that day in KC, going down to 34 at night. If so, not bad weather, really.

 

I think our team is not ready to be playing games yet with that backline, but, whatever, this is the plan Ali chose.

 

Hope we win 6-5.

Not only will the game be played, it'll be played in nicer weather than July or August in most MLS cities.

A couple freak snowstorms and people wimper at the notion of playing soccer between October and April.

Not a matter of weather but the status of the CBA. Strike/Lockout unless something major gets done this week.
