In the course of a few hours I wound up following three different soccer games in three different cities: the Quakes/Revs game in Foxborough, the SF Seals game in San Francisco, and the Chivas/DC game in Los Angeles. (The Chivas game was brought to me via the magical gods of SMS and my friend [...]
The game in pictures + some observations

I’ll start off with my personal highlight of the match: Crew dude getting smacked in the face by a giant Microsoft sign. Ha Ha. (Does it make me a terrible person because I laugh at the misfortune of others?)

So we walked away without a goal but so did Dallas. I think out of all the match reports I’ve read, Embele Awipi put it best: Quakes keep shooting blanks in tie with Dallas. We created lots and lots of chances throughout the game, but yet again, could not finish them. And [...]

It was an entire day of tailgating (pictures coming soon), thanks to the hospitality of a Santa Clara resident who lives mere blocks from the University. On the ride home, we rocked the driver’s ipod and came up with theme songs for a few players.

I was on my way to The Parkway and I got this text message from a friend:
The report from Salt Lake is that your own guys are running into and injuring each other and RSL is up 3-0
Turns out her friend was at the game and reporting back via text message (SMS is seriously keeping [...]

Category: Game TimeVote Kamara’s goal Goal of the Week!
By: Melissa | 11 Comments
So far he only has 7% of the votes and stupid Landycakes is winning. WRONG. Head on over to the official Quakes site to vote and vote often.
In the meantime, please enjoy the highlights from Saturday’s game.
Not featured in the highlights is Cannon’s yellow card for *ahem* “Delaying a Restart?” Wasting time? [...]
