Boooo.

So that means we get Atlanta at GTech not the new stadium right?


Edit that's a really tough start of season...


So our first five matches are as follows

2/22 - Home v Vancouver
3/2 - at Vancouver
3/5 - at Atlanta
3/11 - home vs Colorado
3/14-16 POSSIBLE - home vs Mexican team
3/18 - at Seattle

4/4 - away in Mexico


That's a really really hard start

90% sure I'll be at the ATL game... sucks its not in the new stadium.  Literally out the window fro my office down there.  Hope we secure tickets for travelling support, since they will be packed

The regular season in MLS means nothing if they are going to keep the current broken playoff format. Squeaking into the playoffs as the 5 or 6 seed is where you want to be.

Out of those games the only ones that matter are the CCL ones. The Atlanta one would be fun to win but again regular season means very little in MLS. I won't care at all if they start shitty in league play again.

Also that Colorado game the stadium will be empty. Lame opponent.

MLS has in the past rearranged games for teams in CCL in order to give them a break before or after a game in the semi's or finals in the case of MTL or RSL. Doubt that will happen with us or Vancouver here, they won't reschedule any of these games mentioned here I would think.

I wanted to go to the first game of ours in Atlanta but early March and not the new stadium? No thanks. That sucks.

Considering they already knew the Champions League dates before announcing the regular season schedule I can't see them changing it.

Is there any in this rout with authority to treat with me? Or indeed with wit to understand me?

Good, get the tough games out of the way early so we can enter the post season on a hot streak, surely that's the ticket to MLS Cup!

Having a flashback to the season opener when we got rocked by Seattle in their first game in the league.

I imagine there's a non-zero chance ol' Timmy is a part of the promotional materials for the home opener. It'll sell fine.

Good thing we proved last year that you can basically lose the entire first quarter of the season and still end up alright...
