<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>POST-GAME - 7:31 p.m.</strong>: That one stung, but this series is far from over. The thing that sets this team apart from the rest of MLS is the guys' willingness to battle for each other, and one loss won't deter them. Huge shout out to all the fans and staff members who made the trip. I can't wait to see RFK rockin' on Saturday. </span><a href="http://ww.twitter.com/raypayne"><span style="color:#ff0000;">Becca</span></a><span style="color:#000000;"> and I have a little drive ahead of us after we close up shop here at RBA. Safe travels home to everyone else. We will check back in with you tomorrow. <br><a href="http://www.twitter.com/mollybruh"><span style="color:#ff0000;">Molly Bruh</span></a></span></p> |

<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>POST-GAME - 6:30 p.m.</strong>: That was a rough loss. Cold night in New Jersey, and a 0-2 loss to our most bitter rival. But, just like </span><a href="https://twitter.com/dcunited/status/529048553117974528" target="_blank"><span style="color:#ff0000;">Ben Olsen</span></a><span style="color:#000000;">, I've got faith in this team. I've been a fan of the Black-and-Red long enough to know that we can bounce back from this</span>. Thanks to all the fans who made the trip.<br><a href="http://www.twitter.com/raypayne"><span style="color:#ff0000;">Becca Payne</span></a></p> |

<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>GAMEDAY - 2:56 p.m.</strong>: Settling in here at RBA. Nicky D takes a little extra time in the middle of the field to get ready for the game. </span><a href="http://www.twitter.com/raypayne"><span style="color:#ff0000;">Becca</span></a><span style="color:#000000;"> and I will eat a few extra Twizzler Pull and Peels to get ourselves physically and mentally prepared for this one before we move onto cookies. Can't wait to see all of your beautiful faces in the stands!

<p><strong>GAMEDAY - 1:05 p.m.</strong>: The team pregame meal is finished and the guys are getting ready to go. All that's left to do is pack and get on the bus to head to Red Bull Arena. You can feel the mood switch from last night to today, and I expect them to take it to another level once we get on the bus. I can't wait to see all our fans and staff at the game. Bring the noise guys!<br><a href="http://www.twitter.com/tjscholl16"><span style="color:#ff0000;">TJ Scholl</span></a></p> |

<span style="color:#000000;"><strong>GAMEDAY - 10:50 a.m.</strong>: Staff and Supporter buses are on the way! Lots of donuts and coffee being consumed as we gear up for Red Bull Arena.<br><a href="http://www.twitter.com/jamiegus"><span style="color:#ff0000;">Jamie Gustafson</span></a></span> |

<p><strong>GAMEDAY - 10:20 a.m.</strong>: Team walk complete. Let's just say that windy is an understatement. All those coming to the game should bring layers upon layers. My fingers don't stand a chance on a computer in the outdoor press box at RBA.<br><a href="http://www.twitter.com/tjscholl16"><span style="color:#ff0000;">TJ Scholl</span></a></p><em>PS: <a href="//www.dcunited.com/news/2014/11/qa-nick-deleon-ahead-of-leg-1-of-the-eastern-conference-semifinal"><span style="color:#ff0000;">Stopped for a quick chat with Nick DeLeon during the team walk</span></a></em> |

<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>GAMEDAY - 8:20 a.m.</strong>: Gameday jitters are the worst. </span><a href="http://www.twitter.com/mollybruh" target="_blank"><span style="color:#ff0000;">Molly</span></a> and I are heading out on a run. <br><a href="http://www.twitter.com/raypayne"><span style="color:#ff0000;">Becca Payne</span></a></p><em>PS - <a href="http://on.fb.me/1DIjDxz" target="_blank"><span style="color:#ff0000;">Check out from last night's team meal (courtesy of Tony Quinn)</span></a></em> |

<p><strong>GAMEDAY - 8:00 a.m.</strong>: Remember that time when you set your alarm for 8:30 to go to the team breakfast on the morning of Playoffs, but your phone didn't fall back for daylight savings? So you actually got up at 7:30 and you had no idea until your roommate tells you...? Yea, that just happened. Happy GAMEDAY.<br><a href="http://www.twitter.com/tjscholl16"><span style="color:#ff0000;">TJ Scholl</span></a></p> |

<p><strong>Saturday, November 1 - 8:14 p.m.</strong>: The team arrived a few hours after we did, and settled in before a<a href="http://on.fb.me/1DIjDxz" target="_blank"><span style="color:#ff0000;"> team meal</span></a>. All eyes are now on RSL vs. LA. Going to be an early night here in chilly Jersey City. Let's hope the weather clears up before tomorrow.

<p><strong>Saturday, November 1 - 2:00 p.m.</strong>: To say there are some very interesting people on the Amtrak from DC to NY is an accurate statement. What a start to the trip. But, good news is we are en route and I have Bojangles.<br><a href="http://www.twitter.com/tjscholl16"><span style="color:#ff0000;">TJ Scholl</span></a></p> |

<p><strong>Saturday, November 1 - 12:30 p.m.</strong>: Well folks, the Playoffs are finally here! <a href="http://www.Twitter.com/mollybruh"><span style="color:#ff0000;">Molly Bruh</span></a> and I are hitting the road. The team is taking <a href="http://on.fb.me/1DIjDxz" target="_blank"><span style="color:#ff0000;">Amtrak</span></a> in a few hours, but we're getting a head start in Molly's little Mini Cooper. I feel like we are in a real-life game of Mario Kart! Do you guys have any song suggestions or food recommendations for us? Ok, see y'all later!<br><a href="http://www.twitter.com/raypayne"><span style="color:#ff0000;">Becca Payne</span></a></p> |
