The Carolina Railhawks (USL-1) are playing the Chicago Fire (MLS) in the third round of the US open Cup tournament at SAS.

They looked real sharp tonight, demolishing this Wisconsin team 4-0. Plus, the railhawks have already beaten one MLS team this year, in Chivas, so they definitely have a shot.

I wish I could get hyped for this match like I do when I go down to Wilmington for Open Cup matches, but it's just not the same.

SAS just isn't ghetto enough.

I played some flag football down at SAS, I always wondered why I didn't hear more about the Railhawks

They are doing pretty good for an expansion team. I think they are 4-3-5 in USL-1 play. Plus, they've been getting 5,000+ to some of their games which is decent considering no one has heard of em.

here's their website
