Incredible turnout, incredible game: These boys deserved it! Last night truly felt like a T1 match. Absolute magic! Look forward to more nights like these!

I get that T2 had an amazing night.

But is the MLS season over? Are we just over supporting first team? ....

Where is the hype thread?

Who are you voting for this year and why? I’m stuck between a few players

Whenabouts do you think it’s necessary to enter stadium for the giveaway tonight? By far the coolest item on deck tonight, but for the keychain goose I got there at 6:30 and there was a ton still left and I just sat around for an hour lol

What a game!

I feel like a bitch in with a retirement party I promise

Family emergency popped up and we can’t make it tonight. $25 is face value. First come, first served!

I have kept an on and off eye on T2 all year and now finally made it to the game like many folks did tonight, but man Lund looks like a baller.

I know MLS Next is much much worse than actual MLS but this kid looks rock solid, played youth at a big German club before moving over here. I could see a call up for him in the future and would love to see him progress at the club!

Can't make the match tonight.

First DM gets it!

T2 KEEP THE SHEETS SPARKLING CLEAN AND HAVE A HANDSOME AS HELL COACH!!!!

TIME TO MAKE A PLAYOFF PUSH AND GET US A FIRST MLS NEXT PRO TROPHY!!!!!!

3-0 T2 WINS AND WE MOVIN ON!!!!!!

Hey friends! It's kids author (and Pennsylvania-area Timbers fan) Jonathan again. I had been out earlier this summer for some book events and doing some stuff w/ the Timbers and I got to meet some of you then, which was so awesome!

I'm back in Portland again this week doing school events with Timber Joey, for his Rose City Readers program, but I also have my own story time at Powell's City of Books TOMORROW (Saturday) at 10:30am.

I would love to see some of you if you have kids and need something to do in the morning! I'll be reading TINY T. REX TRIES SOCCER and my newest holiday book, plus signing whatever other books they have in stock. No problem if you can't make it, it was just really fun getting to connect with some of you at my last event in Portland.

Also, I'm excited to go to my third match at Providence Park tomorrow night! Hoping we finally get a win!

Cheers and #RCTID

Blend of T2 and Timbers news!

My preview of tomorrow's match.

On the day of their first home playoff game, let's meet some of the members of the squad responsible for the rapid ascent of Portland's second team.

Now that he's playing with the first team, is he eligible to play tonight? If not, that's kinda sh*tty, he helps the team get to the playoffs then doesn't play with them.

I’m looking forward to it! It would be incredible if we could break the MLSNP Playoff attendance record during T2’s first ever Next Pro Playoff match!!

My guess is no, since they typically don't sell academy stuff, but I would love to show support to the T2 players specifically.

Not at his best, but a determined performance

Sorry for the delayed upload, was flying home from L.A!
