Real Salt Lake @ Dynamo - April 22nd, 7:30 pm The Dynamo should get the victory this week over a winless Salt Lake squad. The game will be televised on FSN Houston. For those interested in getting tickets, there is a 50% off promotion this week for selected tickets in the stadium.

This, in theory, should be a blow out win. Ching is running out of games to impress bruce Arena. This would be an ideal setting to do so. He doesn't need 4 goals, but he's going to have to show he can dominate.
The game is Saturday at 7:30 and will be shown on FSN Houston and in Spanish on channel 43. I think our chances are good in this one, after two losses Houston will be looking to get a win, and Salt Lake is the worst team in the league. De Rosario will be back which will be a major boost to the line up. Also, we get to break out the "Porno mustache" chant for their goalkeeper.
Set him straight, you did. Good one. 4-2 Dynamo. DeRosario's return, he scores on a bender off a set piece play. Gol de tiro libre directo, mala barrera.
There's a guy off of Real Salt Lake that I cannot stand. I believe his name is Cunningham. He's a cockgobbler.
I passed by the Dynamo offices yesterday to pick up parking passes and the folks there said that the turnout should be strong today b/c of all of the ticket promotions this week. I hope they're right!
I'm sorry but just reading the terms "Houston Dynamo vs. Real Salt Lake" just made me chuckle at how totally LITERALLY wannabe MLS is compared to euro football. sorry for that...carry on
From a guy who watches a ton of European football, I agree, however MLS has improved a ton over the last few years, as is actually quite entertaining. The recent infusion of future American stars (who will soon be playing in Europe), has done alot to improve the quality of play.
I was talking about stars in the future, the guys that are 20 or under and playing in MLS. It is well known that America has one of th best youth programs in the world, and those players are just now starting to reach MLS. Watch guys like Eddie Gaven, Chad Marshall and Danny Szetela in Columbus, Eddie Johnson at KC, Marvel Wynne (and soon David Arvizu and Josimer Altidore) in New York, Sasha Kljesten at Chivas Freddy Adu at DCand Chris Rolfe in Chicago. These are the future stars of the National Team, and they're really good. Also, you don't think America as any stars? What about Donovan, Beasley, Reyna, Keller and Onyewu (who I promise will be playing for a big European yeam after the WC). BTW, we won 2-1.
Why is the Houston Dynamo game threads not stickied? We already do it for the major league games we have here in Houston (Astros, Texans, Comets). So why not Dynamo?
Great win today for the Houston team. De Rosario wanted to prove something today for his one game suspension from that red card he received. I liked his little dance he did after he scored. Next week we have a rematch with Colorado. De Rosario told me the team is not gonna take that game for granted since we blew them out 5-2 the first time. Our next home game is May 6 vs FC Dallas.
It's funny how people, who don't have the slightest idea about this sport, take the time to attempt to rag on soccer. Keller and Friedel a few years ago were #1 and #2 goalkeepers in the world, and both played for the US National team. RocketFan007 listed some more good ones. Go Dynamos! Glad to see the turnout is holding strong. I'm getting ready to go play right now. If my team wins today, we get to play at Roberts Stadium in a couple weeks for state. Heard the field is great.
