Snark is 90 mins fit MT @phillysoccerpg Other than absorb pressure, hard to decipher Colorado. Turn the ball over isn't very popular tactic

— Matthew De George (@sportsdoctormd) March 7, 2015

@phillysoccerpg I need some chaco, but still haven't been this excited for a match since day one at the Linc.

— Scott Ellis (@ScotteDoop_COYB) March 7, 2015

@phillysoccerpg I love me some Le Toux, but there has to be a better free kick taker on this team…

— Stan Pasukinis (@SPasukinis) March 7, 2015

@phillysoccerpg Colorado is poor. If this doesn't turn into three points it'll be a tragedy. Not surprising, but still a tragedy

— Stan Pasukinis (@SPasukinis) March 7, 2015

@phillysoccerpg gonna be a long year

— Black Hand (@BlackHand75) March 7, 2015

“@phillysoccerpg: There's the match. 0-0.” Get use to seeing draws this season #nogoalscorers

— Míčhæł (@phen0michael) March 7, 2015

@phillysoccerpg they should have won that. That was painful.

— Tom Comrey (@TomComrey) March 7, 2015

@phillysoccerpg Don't want to see that 4-4-2 again.

— Pete Mazzaccaro (@mazzapete) March 7, 2015

@phillysoccerpg our anchor midfielder was terrible. Lots of hoofing from defense to forwards. No gam plan…cracks all over…smh.

— myth (@that_Nelz_cray) March 7, 2015

@phillysoccerpg I have never seen a team lose ALL urgency and cohesion after going up a man before. That was special.

— Bill farrar (@sievetronix) March 7, 2015

@phillysoccerpg Games Union drop points because of Curtin's tactics – 1. I fear this number will grow.

— john nagy (@nagjs1) March 7, 2015

@phillysoccerpg looked better w chaco playing but the wingers were still too high, very frustrating

— papapapaul (@papapapaul) March 7, 2015

Who does this guy think he is now?

Relieved not to hear the doop song today! Great team effort by the @ColoradoRapids boys! Big road point and shutout! #Rapids96

— Zac MacMath (@ZacMacMath) March 7, 2015

Oh okay, we still love you Zac

Good luck to all the @PhilaUnion boys this season. Keep up all the love @SonsofBen

HOW IS THAT NOT A RED IN THIS GAME?

This rules for referencing one of my favorite episodes of the Simpsons

Someone asked for it in the comments section of @phillysoccerpg . Comparison of @Feraristeguieta to Hank Scorpio. pic.twitter.com/b6Ux3zOGAW

— Scott Pugh (@SPugger77) March 8, 2015

This…(I usually try to read all the comments on things that I write, but this was a rough one folks)

There are some piping #hottakes in the comment section of the @phillysoccerpg Game Recap. Good lord people, pump the brakes.

— Justin Garzone (@JustinGarzone) March 9, 2015

These folks deserve one more shout out…

Thank you to the @PhilaUnion & @Eagles Ground Crews for cleaning out @PPLPark for Saturday's Match. @phillysoccerpg pic.twitter.com/Qh8HhWGu4d
