Let me reiterate… I am a USMNT and Galaxy supporter. As such I have very easily identified enemies in life, the Mexican National Team and Chivas USA, both of which can be further identified by the smell of chicken feed and the wearing of ponchos.
So with those factors in mind I have this to say [...]
It’s too cold outside for soccer. Or for writing about soccer in my case. One thing I love about writing about MLS? I get to play hooky for three months in observance of the savior’s birth. (It takes me about that long to put on 15 pounds of cookie weight and then lose it every [...]
Remember that scene in Star Wars when Luke Skywalker shoots his torpedoes down the shaft of the Death Star and let’s off the worlds biggest sigh of relief? Yeah, that was you earlier today. But not me.
I was determined not to get bogged down in the Fan Boy hysteria of the last 48 hours when [...]
So your mission today is to call your local oldies station and request a dedication. When the guy doing his best Wolfman Jack impression answers the phone, you tell him you want to request Gerry And The Pacemaker’s “Ferry Cross The Mersey” and dedicate it to your favorite on again off again man crush, Landon [...]
So tell me loyal followers, which was the bigger man-on-man hate crime committed Sunday night? Adam Lambert’s dirty dirty prison mouth rape of his on-stage keyboard player? Or when Landon Donovan chose to rip my still beating heart out of my chest, Temple Of Doom style, and drop kick it over the bar up in [...]
Let’s start this week off with a bit of a tale, shall we?
Once upon a time in a place called the IE our hero, The Rodius, finds himself 18 years old and playing pick up games over the summer. What I witness that day is an example of what I like to call the “Keeper [...]
Let’s start with some disclaimers:
- If you want well thought out and researched facts/analysis of the beautiful game there are plenty of writers here at WSR for you. This area is not one of them. I plan to spray toxic fumes of uninformed opinions all over your monitor only to laugh as you try to [...]
Does all the pain matter if the ends justify the means? I mean, no one planned it this way right? No one said, “Hey let’s blow up the league’s most consistent franchise and see if we can rebuild just for the hell of it.” But at times over the last three years it certainly seemed [...]
What a shame.
That was the phrase that plagued me the whole drive home after the Galaxy’s convincing 2-0 win over Toronto FC Saturday night. There is something truly remarkable going on with the Galaxy this season and it’s coming two years too late. As a fan, I am happy that it is happening at all. [...]
I was really bummed this week to hear that Alecko Eskandarian was put on the season ending disabled list. Even before he joined the Galaxy, from the evil team which must not be named, I was a fan. And honestly, being a fan of this guy isn’t hard. How can you not like a guy [...]
