Not sure, but I think my decision's going to hinge on if that one's home or away. _________________________ We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.

The opponent's pretty much guaranteed to be KC or Chicago, right? They wouldn't send Cbus up here... _________________________ I like to think that #winning is exactly the type of crap we embrace. -Tim Hayes, 2011

If both pay its a coin toss and away teams money returned. _________________________ Nothing like barfing tacos and Bender in a dorm shower on a Sunday after a Stars victory. -Hairygrump Make sure the lids of the paint pots are securely fastened before drifting around corners looking cool. -Ayeready

If both pay its a coin toss and away teams money returned. No joke, this is the most Mickey Mouse operation I have ever seen. Where can you find out information on how later rounds' home/away status is determined? I know it used to be determined by bid, but I thought they got rid of that in part. The twitter machine tells me that the draw will be made today for round 3. Who are we hoping for, KC or Chicago? Edit: Ok, I found it buried: "All hosts will pay the USSF 15% of any gross receipts over $100,000. In addition, in Round 3, the hosts must pay the federation a $12,000 fee in advance, which increases in to $18,000 in Round 4, and $25,000 in the Quarterfinals." http://thecup.us/ussf-announces-monumental-format-changes-to-2012-us-open-cup/ Edited by Minnesota NiceFC (05/16/12 10:31 AM) _________________________ -Wes

Chicago's got crazy athleticism and flashes of skill on players that never know where each other are playing. On the other hand, Columbus just sucks. _________________________ I like to think that #winning is exactly the type of crap we embrace. -Tim Hayes, 2011

c0ldfuse First Team Member Registered: 04/22/10 Posts: 718 Loc: mpls	I'll probably be +1 now as well with a first timer from last week who enjoyed the game. I pointed him here to start posting. _________________________ Nothing like barfing tacos and Bender in a dorm shower on a Sunday after a Stars victory. -Hairygrump Make sure the lids of the paint pots are securely fastened before drifting around corners looking cool. -Ayeready

I'm interested, but I don't think I can make it happen.
