alright, that title sounds dramatic, but I truly cannot think of a better sporting game i have ever seen in my life. (and it was Soccer for crying out loud). Real Salt Lake was in the MLS Championship game against the LA Galaxy, and from kickoff till the end, i was soo entertained. this was high action soccer! We (Real Salt Lake) were huge underdogs, and barely made the playoffs, but put it together when it counted and made our way to the Championship! LA Galaxy have David Beckham who is world famous (top 5 player) in the entire world. I wish i would have had the forsight to record this game. we were down 1 -0 at halftime, we made a fantastic score in the second half and out played LA the entire second half, we had numerous opportunities to score a winning goal, including the very last play of regulation and came up just short. these guys were gassed, you could tell they had given it their all, it was so neat to see a team put it all on the line. the game came down to penalty kicks. it was soooo dramatic. i was on the edge of my seat and sweating. you have to watch it for yourselves http://real.saltlake.mlsnet.com/t121/ then click the link for MLS cup 2009 penalty kicks to see for your selves how it turned out. this is the first major sports champiionship in utah since the 1971 Utah Stars... it was just soo entertaining.

it is fun to have teams representing your locality doing good, it makes it soo much fun. i have been following the Ducks a little this season. it looked dismal after that first game and then BAM they are doing awesome
Way to go SLC soccer.
