If the goal scored around the 12th minute by Herculez Gomez had not been called back due to a bad offiside call, the Rapids would have gone up 2 - 0.  Instead of that happening, Real Salt Lake scored a just a short time afterwards to tie the game at the final score of 1 - 1.

Had the goal been allowed and the Rapids gone up 2 - 0 anything could have happened during the rest of the game.  Maybe Real Salt Lake gets pissed off and scores 4 2nd half goals, who knows?  But the one thing I know is that I would have been much more likely to have a correct Thursday prediction.  I would have bet $100 that Real Salt Lake is not going to come back from 2 down.  They did that last week, they won’t twice in a row.

But no matter what I think, I was still wrong.  This isn’t going so good with 1 correct out of 5 weeks.  I’ll probably manage to screw up Dallas/Chicago next week as well.
