Welcome to the second Forecast of 2018! We hope you’re here to take a shot at predicting the outcome of this weekend’s Timber’s match. Remember to make sure you’re clear on the rules, particularly on how cards and assists are scored, and keep in mind the fun prediction has to be at least a little bit absurd (as in, not something likely to happen) to be considered! Also, a reminder to STYLES34: as last year’s victor, feel free to add “Stumptown Weatherperson: Prediction Champion 2017” to your signature. Everyone needs the reminder that you’re the one to beat!
For the game summary, I’m going to steal a line from oregonvania’s prediction: “Sadly, it’s March at StubHub, and our defensive midfield and fullback play allows self-immolation,” and that was pretty much the story, at least of the first half.
