The Official 2018 San Jose Earthquakes related Blogs/Press thread

From the Leeds United website: "Leeds United will also benefit from the business expertise of the 49ers Enterprises in areas including ticketing strategies, sponsorship and commercial opportunities, stadium development, technology, retail and merchandising, and sport development and training." Hey, we could use all of that!!..

 

They sent the fork in the beginning of the year so I guess they already knew.

 

So could the 49ers. They were more woeful than the Quakes until Jimmy Garropolo arrived late last season, and even then finished 6-10 and out of the playoffs. Four consecutive seasons and counting without playoffs for the Niners.

That makes one of you...

 

“They have all these players and elements that I think individually are promising/useful/intriguing at the very least and when combined just form a big pile of soccer sadness. #FreeTomThom”

Truer words have never been written....

 

The spoon (wooden) will arrive at the end of the season.

 

Ouch! They certainly didn't have a high opinion of us, did they?

 

A perfect description of our situation.

Drive down to Avaya and see that the "select items" are nothing I want? No thanks!

 

"Selected Items" is an alternate fact version of "Passed over Items"

 

It might be worthwhile if you're in the general vicinity this evening. I just happened to drop by at lunch while leaving tickets at Will Call for the LAFC game. Picked up one of this year's edition black parkas, discounted to $100 from $200. There were some other nice items for sale, too.

 

My wife picked up a shirt and some gloves. The black rain jackets and a lighter "stone white" rain jacket were both very nice and half price. . Those jackets had Quakes logo but did not have a big "Sutter Health" on them.

 

So thoughtful of the Quakes to consider speeding up the process in the security lines.

They have implemented another step, too, to speed up those lines. Can anyone guess what it is? Anyone? Anyone?

 

Uhh.... I didn't have to take my hat off going through last game.

 

LOL. Data has shown that a chronically bad product will alleviate store lines. The Quakes now offer gut-wrenching losses against ostensibly inferior and/or brand new opponents in both basic black and retro red.

 

I dunno, but in my clear plastic satchel I had a black bag with Quakes-branded baby items to give to a friend with a recent newborn. Security never inspected the black bag.

 

It's stupid. Someone with a turban would not be asked to take it off because of their religion (which is totally fine with me) but, then I shouldn't have to take off my hat, because I worship the Quakes. Well, most of the time.

 

There are "pliable" flasks which can fit nicely under a decent sized hat.
