The game in pictures + some observations

By: Melissa | Comments No Comments

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?)

——————————

We started off happy.

But then we were sad.

Halftime = the art of sausage. Oh […]

I keep forgetting to mention on this here blog that I went ahead and started the Women’s Professional Soccer blog a few days ago. I’m secretly hoping I can grow it to look like the MLS page here – with individual blogs for each team. So please stop by and leave comments and […]

Still no mojo

By: Melissa | Comments 1 Comment

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 […]

Player theme songs

By: Melissa | Comments 3 Comments

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.

Last night, we got our asses beat and I saw a fantastic movie

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 […]

Vote Kamara’s goal Goal of the Week!

By: Melissa | Comments 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? […]

Cancel the Viagra prescription, we scored (twice!)

By: Melissa | Comments 7 Comments

I guess we actually scored three times but a few of us in the bar weren’t sure why the Glinton goal got recalled (handball?). And after the recall, did it not cross your mind that maybe some asshole put San Jose under a freaky voodoo curse? Anyways, thanks to a simply fantastic shot […]

About that not-goal

By: Melissa | Comments 3 Comments

“I’m definitely not going to be logging on to any blogs anytime soon, so please be nice — I’m sorry I missed,” said Salinas half-joking. “I really do feel bad. I feel like I cost the team a point, and I won’t miss again.” — Center Line Soccer
The end of that second half was pure […]

By: Melissa | Comments 8 Comments

I’m not entirely sure how many hours we wound up tailgating on that effin pavement in the effin parking lot. Whatever. Pictures should be coming soon. I’m still a bit drunk so here’s the game analysis I can pull out of my drunk ass right now: Shea Salinas and Ryan […]
