Oh Dear.

Good: You are the New England Revolution, a modestly successful MLS franchise.
Even Better: You qualified for the preliminary round of the CONCACAF Champions' League.
Very Encouraging: You were drawn against a mid-table team from the Trinidad & Tobago Pro League.
Suddenly Very Bad: The team from T&T beat you.
Even Worse: 4-0
Oh God Make It Stop: In front of your home fans.
Crawling Away In Abject Humiliation: The team from T&T is called Joe Public FC.

I watched the Revolution beat the Galaxy one night in a hotel room.

Great game! Very very watchable stuff.

Yes, I think "Joe Public FC" is now probably my favourite soccer team name!

@SD: The MLS has become quite entertaining in recent years, and there's some quite decent play going on. I watched FC Toronto take on Chivas USA the other night, and it was a very exciting game!

Oh, and credit should be given to Impact de Montreal, Canada's lone representative in the CONCACAF Champions' League, who survived the preliminary round and have advanced to take on the big boys in the group stage!
