I remember playing football for Bend High 51 some-odd years ago and traveling hundreds of miles to places like Pendelton, La Grande, Baker...on a bus donated by Trailways to the high. Sleeping on our equipment duffel bags on the way back, traveling on a 2-lane highway through the mountains. We called the driver Mario Andretti for the speed he took through the hills...
Boy that gave me some flashbacks to hockey road trips back in Alaska. Six hours to get to Homer, where much of that drive is through passes where you're right in the heart of avalanche country. Scary as hell. Fun as heck. Some of my favorite memories.
I'd place Dana Altman at the top of the table among B1G hoops coaches. Cronin's act is tired and I'm not convinced Tommy Lloyd is anything but a great recruiter.
The Timbers did play with a lot more energy with DaCosta on the pitch. Losing a man in the 14th minute, however, really affected the match. That being said...Vancouver in general looked faster and more organized than the Timbers.
