This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Effort was there, but this team still would lose 2-1 at T&T by spade

But I would have felt better about the loss because they were certainly trying tonight. The team I saw tonight wasn't on point with too many passes, except for the long one to Adams which was gorgeous. Lots of easy passes were behind the players or too close to the defender and swept away, so the young guys have a lot to learn about who is fast, who is slow and where to place the passes.

That being said, the groundwork is certainly there and certain players Villafana and Miazga were all over the place. I didn't recognize enough names to say who else played well. I thought Wood was decent.
