I remember pretty well talking to Jimmy Conrad after a match years ago at CAB after the then Wizards had just beaten... some very poor team, but just barely, and on a last minute play. I told him “You know, you guys don’t always have to make it interesting. You can just win outright sometimes”. He sort of chuckled and said something like “Yeah, that’d be nice, but we like to keep you on the edge of your seat.”
It was nice, then, to see Sporting Kansas City really cruise past a Real Salt Lake team they ought to beat, especially at home.
