For context: Leon went UNDEFEATED through the regular season and the entire playoffs. This game is the promotion game vs. the champions from the fall season. The winner of the home-and-home series advances.

Leon (a 5 time champion) has been in the second division since 06? and they've come close to returning multiple times, but always get stuck here. I think they're cursed. We'll find out on Saturday.



Back in the first division, Club america has to be incredibly frustrated. They controlled game 1 but came out with nothing to show for it, and needing to win (by any scoreline) from El Tecnologico de Monterrey.

Just finished watching Santos Laguna winning the Grand Final over Monterrey.

I assume they'll now immediately and spectacularly turn to shit, since that's the mark of a true champion, right?

From the Xolos' facebook feed:

XoloPass incluye la presentación en el Estadio Caliente el 13 de Julio vs Dorados de Sinaloa. El lunes 25 de Junio inicia venta general para la Liga MX Torneo Apertura 2012. VAMOS XOLOS!!

XoloPass includes the presentation in the hot Stadium July 13 vs Dorados de Sinaloa. Monday, June 25 he started general sale for the MX League tournament opening 2012. GOING VAMOS!


I love the gloss of "el Estadio Caliente" as 'the hot Stadium'. But does this mean Dorados are the team that promoted to the big leagues this year? Or is it just a preseason game?

It means that if you go down there, you'll be murdered by the drug cartels.

TJ <> Juarez.

the cartels in baja have their shit in order . . . it isn't the chaos of the Texas / Mexican border. Meaning, if you get murdered it won't be because of the cartels, it will be because TJ is a dump and filled with tons if ignorant nacos.

But on the upside, TJ is known for having very hot putitas at very cheap prices (compared to other Mexican cities). ***rumor has it you can get laid for about $60 USD; and that is in reference to the high end strip clubs***

Summary:

TJ is a dump, but worth it if you like FMF soccer and cheap hot putitas.

:D

Yeah, it's usually before their spring season that I get a hankering to try FMF fantasy, when there's no MLS happening and the NFL is winding down. But for their fall season, there just isn't time.

But hey, Go Xolos (or should I say, Xolos are going)!

Oh so close by Castillo. But, Xolos up 1-0 at half.

Edit: Xolos win 2-0. Joe Benny was subbed out at 55' and Castillo was subbed out at 61 mins.

I went to the Xolos site 

http://xolos.com.mx

and clicked on "compra tu boleto" and used the ticketmaster mx site 

http://www.ticketmas.../artist/1615760

Pretty easy. I'll pick up my tickets at International Will Call.

Xolos won. Joe Benny played well. Castillo gave the ball away too much for my liking but, all of the players on both teams did so.

The 3 hours it took to cross back was harsh, but I came back alive.
