A History Of The Ultras by The Don (Not Garber)
By: Sean |I had planned on making this blog relatively supporter group-neutral, but a post from Don Gagliardi about a certain playoff game in 2003 on the Ultras forum was just too good to pass up:
The thing new 1906 Ultras should know about that game is that our precursors, the San Jose Ultras, played a material role [...]
San Jose v New York preview
By: Melissa |I’m leaving town this weekend so you get the preview a bit early. And what’s in store for us against the Red Bulls? We beat them once in pre-season and then we lost our mojo. But we got it back on Saturday against Colorado so I’m crossing my fingers we can keep [...]
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 [...]
Shout out to the Ultras
By: Melissa |Yeah, I dunno. I was so bummed out on Friday I completely forgot about the positives such as the folks who traveled down to the HDC to support the team. I’m also a little bit inspired by Chicago Sean’s recent post so I’m bogarting his idea to rep the SJUltras for their efforts [...]
Centerlinesoccer finally debuts
By: Melissa |This is gonna be the de-facto spot for Quakes related media from now on. Don’t even think about it, just bookmark the site immediately and check it like 20 thousand times a day. Nice how one of their first articles confirms Yuri Morales is no longer training with the team. I [...]
I will kick your prom king ass
By: Melissa |Here are Thursday’s Earthquakes Odds & Ends to get you through the day:
* According to the economic impact summary for the proposed SSS (and my fandom certainly DOES NOT extend to reading that thing) the new stadium will include a concert stage. Personally, I don’t have an opinion about this one way or the [...]
Another slow news day
By: Melissa |I’m 99% positive my friend took this photo during Oakland’s first Fridays pretentious self-congratulatory art walk sh*t-fest. Can you tell I am not a fan? There are so many terrible things I want to say about this picture right now (but not about my friend who took the photo, she’s great).
Moving on… this [...]
Save the HULK
By: Melissa |The latest Joe Cannon blog is up on the official Quakes site. He doesn’t really spend a lot of time commenting on last week’s games against Houston. Instead it’s full speed ahead with pre-season (although he does give a little shout out to Saturday’s Pub Crawl, hrrrmmm, I was there and didn’t see [...]
Dear Cheryl Cole
By: Melissa |Definitely dump that asswipe. Don’t think about it, just do it. Also, I know you are grieving right now and stuff because you look very sad in those tabloid pictures. But please please please, stop moping around, channel your pain, and focus on making another awesome Girls Aloud album! I [...]
Sign Fabrice (dot com)
By: Melissa |I feel it may be a little premature to start making sweeping predictions for a team that’s only been practicing together for ten days. Coupled with the fact that the roster is still not complete, I think I’m just going to focus on who left the best impressions and, of course, how much [...]
