    Did anyone get Copa tickets?
    The MLS season ticket holders presale is only by venue, which sucks. But the bright side is I've got a guaranteed ticket for the quarterfinal at MetLife, and an entry into a lotto drawing for the actual final. Here's hoping I have better luck in that lottery than pearl jams.

    I'm going to try for Philly tomorrow. The USA game is on a Saturday, and as long as it's a day game i should have no problems getting the mega bus there and back in a day. (I'm cheap.)

    I'm on some email list to get tickets. Got an email today that tix go on sale Feb 3rd. Hoping to get tix for the U.S. game in Chicago. Either way, I'll be at that game.
    I have a pre sale Thursday and going to get tickets for the US game in philly
    The presale thing I just got is only for venue passes for all games played in Chicago. I only want to see the US game.

    Ha, I literally just found out the same thing...Guess I'll wait for single games to go on sale.
    Naturally they try to squeeze every dollar out of you. I would expect nothing less with CONCACAF involved.
    Yep...

    That's why I bought the venue passes. From the FAQ
    CAN I PURCHASE INDIVIDUAL TICKETS TO MATCHES?
    Due to expected high demand, fans are encouraged to purchase Copa Venue Passes in the early sales period. If any tickets remain, individual tickets would be made available at a later date.


    On the other hand if you really only want the one game it's likely that many people bought venue passes and won't be using them for every game so you might be able to get them second hand.

    There is absolutely no way Philadelphia is going to sell out of venue passes. They are obviously guaranteeing you one game (US in Philly/Chicago, Mexico, Brazil or Argentina in other place) to try to fill the stadium for other random games, which isn't going to happen. The chance of 70k people buying 3 games of tickets to see 1 US game, at least here in Philly, is 0%.

    Some good things happening from some young U.S. players. Pulisic made his debut for Dortmund today....pretty amazing that a 17 year old American is playing in the Bundesliga for one of the top teams. And Miazga signing with Chelsea....sounds like he won't be put on loan either. Good stuff.

    I grabbed MetLife venue for my family via US Soccer presale. Great seats. A Friday and a Sunday. Looking forward to it. Not worried about quarter final. It's actually set up hoping Brazil-US as it B1 (Brazil) - A2 (US?). And if not, whoever wins Brazil's group will be great. As for group game, it's Brazil's group pot 2 and 3 (so not Brazil). Between Columbia, Chile, Uruguay, etc. odds are a great team and atmosphere. Unless these 3 teams are in different pots which makes no sense (I'm also probably forgetting someone).

    Plus, venue pass gets you in lottery for the final. I lost the pj MSG lottery that I would gladly trade for winning that one. Psyched my sons will get to see real world class soccer right at home and not the drek MLS is carting out there. Praying for the soccer gods to smile on us and grant us finals ducots.
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    Holy shit balls. Miazga made the bench for the PSG game. Pretty much cheering for injuries right about now.

    Yeah, couldn't believe that. Chelsea defense is pretty thin right now with a few injuries. Doubt he would get in there today, but I'm sure he'll be seeing some action soon.

    MLS shits the bed again in CONCACAF Champions League. It's really hard to take that league seriously....

    Also, can't believe that they STILL aren't selling single game tickets for the Copa America.

    Didn't see the results of the 2nd leg but figured they had no shot in Azteca once it went there tied

    Can't really be too hard on them though.The save on that pk was nice, and with the aggrigate it's not like they really stood much of a chance to begin with.
