What A Terrible Weekend (And It’s Only Noon On Sunday)

By: Sean | Comments 1 Comment

Following an 8 hour bus ride to Pullman, WA and back, this is not what I wanted to come home to.
Landon Donovan is my least favorite player in the history of The Major League Soccer. And its not even close.
Growing up idolizing Barry Bonds probably did a lot to skew my view of “villains”. [...]

Where Did Our Rivalry Go?

By: Ian | Comments 8 Comments

A three-nil drubbing at the hands of your most despised enemy is enough to put any fan in a mood so sour that puppies and songbirds seem like good targets for a well-placed kick.  So bear with me if my vision is clouded by Saturday’s events.  It seems that Quakes fans everywhere, myself included, are consumed [...]

Hate Week – David Beckman Edition

By: Sean | Comments No Comments

OK, I was gonna wait to start more Galaxy-bashing until tomorrow, but this couldn’t wait.

Genius.
Also, quote from former San Jose Earthquake George Best: “He cannot kick with his left foot, he cannot head a ball, he cannot tackle, and he does not score many goals. Apart from that, he’s all right.”

We may be in the cellar but we are going to make the most of it

By: Melissa | Comments 6 Comments

If you watched Saturday’s game, you know there were a lot of corner kicks. There were so many corner kicks, our little section wondered if the Quakes were in the process of breaking a new record. Well whaddya know, we did!

The Earthquakes and Columbus Crew combined for 25 corner kicks Saturday night at [...]

Is the rivalry dead?

By: Melissa | Comments 1 Comment

Ok, I really need to get off the internet. Especially since my co-worker plans to quit in the middle of a “restructuring the department” meeting that I think is going on right now.
Was it me or did you get the sense that there was zero passion from the players and the crowd last night [...]

Its on bitches!

By: Melissa | Comments 18 Comments

After I left that Quakes v UC Berkeley scrimmage a few weeks ago, I took Bart home. While waiting on the platform for my train, I saw a dude walk by wearing a Beckham LA Galaxy zip up jacket thingamabob. I was initially shocked because I seriously never thought anyone would actually buy [...]

When you diss Dre you diss yourself

By: Melissa | Comments 4 Comments

I don’t know if you’ve been following the news of a more pop-culture variety so you may or may not know that one of the best television shows of all time is about to be redone for US audiences. The remake certainly looks to be an epic trainwreck thats destined to fail from the [...]

Ann Killion: Dropping science like Galileo dropped the…

By: Melissa | Comments No Comments

Hey guys, the Merc has an article on Wednesday’s game complete with quotes from Doyle and Kinnear. Yay. Thanks Ann. So to sum it all up, the Dynamo turned down Doyle’s request to interview Kinnear for SanHo’s head coach job but Kinnear isn’t unhappy. In fact, he says the idea of [...]

Seattle joins MLS… time for San Jose to step it up

By: Melissa | Comments 4 Comments

Its well known that back in the day of just a few years ago, the SJ v LA rivalry was the biggest in MLS. Well, now that humanity is at the dawn of Earthquakes v2.0 (or perhaps 3.0, depending on who you ask), and with the news today that Seattle is getting a MLS [...]
