Happy Portland Timbers Day (pdf)! The MLS Portland Timbers‘ first home game is finally here.
The visiting Chicago Fire (1-1-1) face the Timbers (0-2-1) at 8pm tonight at a match broadcast on ESPN2, ESPN Deportes, 95.5 The Game, and La Pantera 940 AM.
But of course the place to be tonight is the wet, cold [temperatures in the low 40s, rain and wind, possible thunderstorms!] and wild Jeld-Wen Field. I’ll be one of the lucky 18,638 in attendance, staying warm by cheering and clapping and hoping for some Timbers goals!
