Maybe THIS week our positivity will pay off.

D.C. United are enduring a struggle of a season here, and their performances the last two weeks have been awful teases—just good enough to not look terrible, just bad enough to not win.

In the Portland Timbers, United face the current MLS champions, but those champions have also traveled across the country and haven't been particularly good on the road this year. Is this the moment for the Black-and-Red?

Somehow, we're still generally optimistic about our team's chances.
