The Montreal Impact squandered an opportunity to move up the Eastern Conference table in their last outing. They dropped a 3-0 decision to last-place Chicago on Saturday, but dont have much time to sulk.Montreal will look to bounce back Wednesday at Stade Saputo in a quick turnaround match against D.C. United, the team directly below it in the Eastern Conference.Despite Saturdays head-scratching loss to the Fire, the Impact (8-7-9) remained in fifth place with 33 points. D.C. United (6-8-10, 28 points) is clinging to the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, and is currently riding a four-game unbeaten streak.The two teams met three weeks ago, with Montreals Herman Bernardello delivering a late equalizer in a 1-1 draw on July 31 at RFK Stadium.After the game, D.C. United defender Steve Birnbaum called the performance the best we played all year.Everyone looked after each other, I thought we pressed well as a group, put them on their heels and were on the attack the whole time, Birnbaum told reporters after the draw. A lot of positives from this game.Patrick Mullins had D.C. Uniteds goal in the previous meeting against Montreal and did it again in his last outing, scoring in a 2-2 draw with the New York Red Bulls.Mullins is one of Uniteds new additions, along with Lloyd Sam, who were brought in to spark what had been a sluggish offensive attack. D.C. United has six goals in its last three outings. Alvaro Saborio leads the club with four goals.But D.C. United has only one win on the road this season, and Montreal has been stellar for the most part at Stade Saputo, with the loss to Chicago the glaring exception. The Fire had not won on the road all season, until stunning the Impact on Saturday.Still, Montreal has been steady at home, going 6-6-3, and possesses two of the leagues most explosive playmakers in Ignacio Piatti and Didier Drogba. Piatti is fourth in MLS with 13 goals and Drogba has eight in 15 MLS games this season. Cheap Los Angeles Kings Jerseys .

But what about the officials? Every sport has officials and they also have stories about hard work and sacrifice but their accomplishments are seldom recognized by anyone outside their inner circle. OPELIKA, Ala. -- The case against a man accused of torching one of Auburn Universitys famed oak trees at Toomers Corner is going to a grand jury.The Opelika-Auburn News (http://bit.ly/2dq3Jqn) reported Thursday that a judge sent the case against Jochen Wiest, 29, of Auburn to a grand jury to consider an indictment following a hearing Wednesday.Covering the Toomers oaks with toilet paper after Auburn football victories is a school tradition that had been frustrated after University of Alabama fan Harvey Updyke poisoned the original trees, which were removed and replaced with new oaks in February 2015. This fall was the first season when school officials allowed fans to resume rolling the young trees with the highly flammable paper.Wiest was arrested as flames engulfed one of the young trees after Auburn beat Louisiana State University on Sept. 24.An Auburn student said she saw Weist set fire to the toilet paper, followed him and yelled for help detaining the man until officers arrived. Auburn police detective Michael Creighton testified that Wiest had a lighter on him and was wearing an Auburn hat.ddddddddddddWeist, a German national living in Auburn, is free on bond. He did not attend the hearing and has not entered a plea to the charges, which include public intoxication, criminal mischief and damaging a venerated object. The grand jury could add or change the charges, or decline to indict him for any crimes.Defense lawyer Margaret Brown questioned the charges, saying the Toomers Oaks could not be considered a venerated object under the law because they arent a structure, place of worship, burial or monument.But Prosecutor Jessica Venturi said the trees were considered a monument the second they were installed.District Judge Steven Speakman said the status of the trees was more of a legal question than a factual question.---Information from: Opelika-Auburn News, http://www.oanow.com/ cheap falcons jerseys cheap ravens jerseys cheap bills jerseys cheap bears jerseys cheap bengals jerseys cheap cowboys jerseys cheap lions jerseys cheap texans jerseys cheap colts jerseys cheap jaguars jerseys cheap chiefs jerseys cheap rams jerseys cheap dolphins jerseys cheap vikings jerseys cheap saints jerseys cheap giants jerseys cheap jets jerseys cheap eagles jerseys cheap steelers jerseys cheap 49ers jerseys ' ' '
