I thought of a lot of acronyms to go through with this title.
Tears for Chance
Time for Collin
Terrible final clearence
I don't know. You can probably do better.
Didn't we all see that coming though? I think we all saw it coming. Sigh. Ladies and gentlemen, the Sporting Kansas City team that plays down to, and looks past, teams they should beat, especially at home, seems to be back. These last games have been frustrating, and Friday night, with injuries galore, was just icing on the cake. It looked like they might win. They actually played well for most of the match! But defending, in stoppage time, once again, was our undoing.
Sigh. Let's look at some number.

Dom Dwyer, man of the match. Yay. Feels hollow, man. But hey, the kid is on fire. Let's see him bag a few more. I want to win again.
The worst part about being defending Champions? Expectations. This has been by no means a terrible start to the season, but demanding perfection makes for frustration after what really hasn't been that bad of a spell.
The CB/defenders in general crisis is getting alarm.
Josh Gardner, come back home. All is forgiven.
