About that not-goal
By: Melissa |“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 […]
Wow we lost but that was so much fun
By: Melissa |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 […]
San Jose v Chicago Preview
By: Melissa |Here’s my attempt at a proper and thorough preview of Saturday’s game. After last week’s fiasco, we will – uh, not necessarily win this one, but we will certainly perform better if A) our central defenders and “the David Beckham of San Jose” collectively pull their heads out of their asses and B) our […]
Fingers Crossed
By: Melissa |I’m supposed to call Ricky’s later today and ask Ricky if his bar will show Saturday’s MLS games. Wish me luck.
Are you a morning person? Well you are in luck. Saturday’s itinerary begins at 10:30am right when the Coliseum gates open. I think basically all the supporters groups will be in […]
Hmmmmmmmm
By: Melissa | I know lots and lots of people are really excited about Saturday’s pre-game events so I’m going to keep the snark to a minimum. Here’s what we get to look forward to (besides the footie):
* A special Earthquakes video on the stadium big screen (can anything top We Believe? lets all find […]
Beuler? Beuler?
By: Melissa |So far, not a peep from our team this week. Oh well. Here’s some news to tide us over:
* Camp starts Feb 4th at the 49ers practice facility in Santa Clara. No official word whether its open to the public (but it probably is).
* And the pre-season schedule so far

Its raining soccer
By: Melissa |Well, it certainly has been raining. Not only do Bay Area fans get to look forward to a few pre-season Quakes games, but our FO helped organize a friendly between Mexico’s and Australia’s Olympic squads for Sunday March 2 at 2pm in Oakland. Tickets for that game go on sale Feb 1st. […]

Buck Shaw too ugly for national television, Joe Cannon debate continues
By: Melissa |According to Steve Davis at ESPNsoccernet, among the many scheduling conflicts that make up our convoluted MLS season (those pesky international dates, non-MLS tournaments, and having to share the stadiums with other sports teams) is the new problem that the Quakes’ temporary home, Buck Shaw, is apparently too hooptie to properly represent a professional sports […]
You can’t spell mullets without MLS
By: Melissa |Ok seriously, I can’t take credit for the awesome title. I nicked it off a comment over at Sacha Kljestan’s myspace page. Anyhooo, I’ve spent the last two weeks in bed with the flu from hell followed by a trip to Southern California where my family spent the entire “vacation” taking turns yelling […]
