Tribute to Cerritos

By: Ian | Comments 5 Comments

The signing of Ramon Sanchez has me pleased as punch.  Finally, the Quakes have signed a central midfielder, the position we desperately need help at, with international experience as captain of the El Salvador national team.  I am overcome with wishful thinking at this point, but I am hoping he replicates the form and impact [...]

Five Fears from the Shrink’s Couch

By: Ian | Comments No Comments

The ball bulges the back of the net and I throw my hands up in disgust, but the half-heartedness of the gesture betrays my true feelings.  Not disappointment or anger, not even pain.  Instead it was that bitter resignation which takes up shop in a fan’s heart around the time he realizes that his club [...]

Back with a vengeance

By: Ian | Comments 9 Comments

The San Jose Offside is back from its holiday break, and all I have to say is: what happened to the Quakes while I was gone?  The Cannon saga was thankfully concluded with The Joe remaining in San Jose as he should, but it definitely left a bad taste in the mouth of most fans. [...]

Will He or Won’t He?

By: Ian | Comments 3 Comments

The talk around the town is that Ronnie O’Brien has been left unprotected on the expansion draft list released today.  Speculation is that Yallop may be gambling that Seattle will not pick O’Brien due to his aversion to turf, his high salary, and his history of knee injuries.  They also signed Ljungberg, who plays the [...]

Quakes/Spurs Collabo

By: Sean | Comments 4 Comments

I had heard rumblings (har har) about this for a little while, but didn’t want to get anyone in trouble and let the cat out of the bag. Now that CLS has confirmed, I can talk about the Quakes partnership with Tottenham Hotspur, and what it will mean (if anything).
My gut tells me that [...]

“Aw man.. is there gonna be some LOVIN’ goin’ on tonight, in the bedrooms of San Jose.” – Ray Hudson
“Nine months from now, maybe a few “Darren”s popping out…” – Phil Schoen
That’s about what it feels like as a Quakes fan.
