[1] Six Revolution players were named to the MLS all-star game, the highest number in the club's history: Clint Dempsey, Shalrie Joseph, Pat Noonan, Michael Parkhurst, Matt Reis, Taylor Twellman.

[11][12] After dropping the first match of the series 1-0, the Revolution would fall into a 59th-minute 0-2 aggregate hole in the home second leg, when Youri Djorkaeff scored on a break-away counter attack after Parkhurst misread a bounce on the snowy pitch.

In front of a crowd of 18,118, a 4th-minute goal from Clint Dempsey would prove enough to send the Revolution to their 2nd-ever appearance in the MLS Cup final.

The match ended somewhat controversially, when an apparent stoppage time equalizer (90+2) from Gonzalo Segares was subsequently ruled offsides.

[15] The 2005 season for the Revolution culminated in a matchup with the LA Galaxy in the 2005 MLS Cup on November 13, 2005 at Pizza Hut Park in Frisco, Texas.

[16] The Galaxy had the upper hand for most of the match, with the Revolution defense struggling to contend with the speed of Landon Donovan, who saw his shot cleared off the line by Parkhurst in the 79th minute.

The match ultimately entered extra time, and, unfortunately for the Revolution, the game's only goal came from Guillermo Ramírez in minute 105 + 2, giving the Galaxy their second title.
