For the first time ever, I am nervous about how Marty’s going to look tonight.
Anyone else share my apprehension?

Can’t say I do.As long as the calendar says September it’s very hard for me to really worry about performance from the veterans (unless it’s something obvious that could be injury related). Once we get to October and things are still a bit off then I’ll be concerned. Until then, sit back, keep an eye on the guys trying to make the team, and enjoy the show.

In Lou We Trust!! (but that doesn't mean we don't wonder sometimes...)
Sir, Our math shows that the bird is equal to or GREATER THEN the word. CHECK IT AGAIN!!!!

gotta say, Marty didn’t look great. Some questionable goals allowed…Marty’s style is not forgiving of slow reaction time. I think SI rated him as having the best reflexes of any athlete back in ‘95 or some time either before or right after the first cup. Those reflexes will, or maybe have, slowed. While a butterfly goalie can cover up slower movements with good positioning, I’m not sure Broduer can as there is a lot of air between the wickets with his ‘half-butterfly/stand up old school style.
I love MArty, I just hope I never have to watch him play past his prime even though he has earned the starter’s job for as long as he wants it.
