Six Degrees: Timbers Lose 1-1

I’ll be honest: this game hurt me. I walked out of Providence Park Saturday afternoon hot, sweaty, exhausted, and very, very angry.

1) It’s been said so many times, it’s almost a cliché, but some draws feel like wins, some draws feel like draws, and some draws feel like 4-0 losses. This game was definitely the latter, mostly because it was so damn winnable.

The LA Galaxy came into the game with one of the worst defenses in the league, with Ola Kamara and both Dos Santos brothers gone to the World Cup, and with a lineup still tired from playing a game on Wednesday night.
