Marco Di Vaio did not make the best of impressions when he was red carded against the Houston Dynamo, at the end of the Eastern Knockout game. His red card even overshadowed Andres Romero's initial actions that kickstarted the whole scuffle.
MLS' twitter account poked fun at Di Vaio, intentionally or not, when comparing Darrius Barnes "fouls" Chance Myers during the second leg of the Eastern Conference semi-final between the New England Revolution and Sporting Kansas City.
One might say that you reap what you sow and a bit like everything else in life, people's last impression of you can definitely overshadow any good deed you might have done for 34 games.
