“Knee-Jerk Reactions” is Hudson River Blue’s series of what we were thinking throughout the match. These were our unfiltered thoughts as they played out in real time — no editing, no revisions. Just raw, pure emotion.
These were my reactions to New York City FC’s terrible 3-1 loss to D.C. United:
First Half
1’: No Ismael Tajouri-Shradi. Like, what!?
5’: Yikes. Too close for comfort.
8’: There’s no other way to put it. We are absolutely trash.
17’: City just looks out of it. No aggression, no possession. Nothing. This three-week break might have been WORSE for us
24’: Is there even a point to watching this team anymore? This is legit depressing.
32’: Amagat is terrible
45’: LOL! That’s all I have to say.
Second Half
57’: “No sign of intelligent life anywhere.” - Buzz Lightyear
68’: I have no confidence in us getting back into this game. Zero.
69’: C’MON!!!!
74’: Welp. That’s it, folks.
78’: Well, at least we got one.
90+4: If it wasn’t my job to cover this club, I’d take a sabbatical until the playoffs.
