WE'LL SING FOR YOU TIMBERS, UNTIL YOU FINISH THE FIGHT, THERE'S A PARTY IN PORTLAND...

...AND NO ONE'S SLEEPING TONIGHT!

Okay, now to think of something other than how close the Saints came to winning just now (wow, that was close).

Lazy Chris was lazy, and so I didn't download photos from my first experience at a Major League Soccer game (Wednesday, July 20th, 2011, as I first chronicled here) until recently. But now I can share! Like


me doing a self-portrait, and


this shot of Timber Joey, the mascot of the team for years (and the well-loved successor to the beloved Timber Jim of the minor-league Timber era) -- he indeed has a chainsaw (THOUGH IT'S NOT RUNNING), and the standing woman on the left of the photo indeed is wearing a "Timber Joey is my Homeboy" T-shirt (which Big-Ass Sandwiches sells to support the Portland Police's Sunshine Division charity), and


fan Sunday White leading the 107 and 108 in cheers and song during the game.

Here are the rest of the pictures, if'n you want to see more. I want to see more, by getting to another game when I can!
