Galactic Letdown!
I won't drag this out. I'll make it as short and as painless as I can. We went to watch the Galaxy take on the Colorado Rapids on Sept. 16th at the good ol' HDC. It was a fun evening with family, loved ones, the works. The game was evenly matched, unfortunately it was matched for the worst. Only a handful of exciting moments made the 0-0 tie a little bearable. But still, it wasn't a loss, so that was good. 
The Galaxy were at a point where they needed to win the next 4 games in order to maintain any hopes of advancing to the playoffs. Their first obsticle was the Chicago Fire, as the Galaxy flew to Illinois only to be handed a 2-1. Our lone goal coming from Captain Landon Donovan. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough. Now, we are forced to win all 3 of our remaining games, but even that does not make advancement certain. 
But before those 3 games, we had the U.S. Open Cup final, once again in Chicago against the Fire. From what was quickly becoming an abyssmal season finale, the Open Cup was our only glimmer of hope. If we couldn't repeat the league championship, we could at least have the Open Cup. Not so, my friends. The Fire were, well, on fire, and the Galaxy defense was no match for their attacks. The final score was 3-1, with a lone goal made by Alan Gordon. (Who had been inconsistent, as of late.) Well, on the verge of a very bad season finale, the Galaxy face their hometown rivals for the last time this season, as they welcome the Chivas on Saturday night. In this case, a victory would be doubly sweet. Good Luck, Guys! Let's Not Give Up!
