35th most powerful blog? Really?
By: Melissa | March 12th, 2008Wow, congrats to us. And with that in mind, its time to finally get down to business and focus on poignant, serious, and informative posts about the subject manner at hand. So lets begin:
* On May 6th, the Quakes will play Stanford University.
* The Bay Soccer’s Earthquakes page is worth bookmarking. They’ve been posting excellent match reports for every pre-season friendly (check out their write-up on Friday’s Berkeley scrimmage) and they’ve got a great player pre-season stats chart. Pretty amazing stuff.
* Last night, the San Jose City Council approved the cost/benefit analysis of the potential new Quakes’ SSS. The report says the stadium will pump $62.3 million a year into San Jose. Wolff and his partners want retail land rezoned to allow housing construction. The profit from the new homes will pay for the SSS. More details on the report are here. And SSV has a little breakdown on the numbers. They also say the next step is an additional study on the site earmarked for the stadium. My guess is its an environmental study to determine the details on cleaning up the damage left by FMC.
* The team leaves for South Carolina on Thursday (or maybe today… not sure).
And… thats today’s news. Thats it. The end. No more news. Ok.
Aw sh*t, I can’t resist. Last week, a friend of mine left her work in Hayward just in time to catch a huge truck topple over from the weight of a ginormous crane on top of it. She managed to take a few photos. Enjoy!

You mean the denver song? I’m all about finding great bands from Mexico & beyond. I kind of feel the US is a bit played these days and the good stuff is coming from down there (expecially Chile — seriously off the chain musically).
As for who is on the plane, besides the “first team”? Honestly, I’ve seen 2 pre-season games and I’m looking at the Bay Soccer stats chart right now and I can’t predict. But I’m crossing my fingers to see Adam Smarte and Yuri Morales sub in for at least one of the games. I think we’ll know who went when we see the boys play on Saturday.
