HFH: Albinos, Gingers and Canucks, OH MY!

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 [...]

Hatin’ From Hollywood

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 [...]

Galaxy: Three Years In The Making

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 [...]

Galaxy: Too Little Too Late?

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.  [...]

Galaxy: Are You Not Entertained?

It definitely wasn’t the best game of the weekend in MLS, but in true Galaxy fashion the game between Seattle and LA was surely the most entertaining.  In a game that saw more red cards than goals, I experienced something I had only felt once before.
Two years ago the Galaxy played in the inaugural Super [...]

Galaxy: Strikers vs Strikers

A note to Alan Gordon:
Do you see those two things approximately 6 feet below your nose?  You know, the two things attached to your ankles that are made of stone.  Those are what we humans call feet.  Don’t panic!  It’s normal, everyone has them.  I know you have just discovered them so, like Baby Bambi, [...]

Galaxy: The Dynamic Duo?

The Galaxy keep getting bailed out, plain and simple.  The late game heroics aren’t always going to be there.  The last ditch goals are going to end at some point.
Five games into the season with only four points to show of it?  That isn’t the start we wanted as Galaxy fans.  It is, however, the [...]

Galaxy: Heir Jordan

If I were Bryan Jordan I would totally rock the #23 jersey for the Galaxy.  What do you mean #23 isn’t available?  I’ve been to three homes games this season and watched the first road game Saturday and didn’t see anyone wearing #23.  Oh… That Beckman guy…  Is he still with the team? Oh well, [...]

Galaxy: Soft Like Margarine

Three weeks into the season with two games played and the best thing I can say about my Galaxy fan experience so far is that I sold my two tickets to the AC Milan game for $450.
For five months we heard Galaxy coach Bruce Arena talk about defense being a priority.  After conceding 5 goals [...]
