Pre-match: San Jose Earthquakes - Seattle Sounders FC (Saturday, 8/2) pregame thread

If the Dodgers had done this, maybe Brian Stowe would still be able to wipe his own ass.

PS. I want cops to keep the drunk drivers of the roads.

if anyone needs extra tickets to this*******, PM me

 

FYI, I beat Seattle 4 out of 5 games on FIFA 14 today with a 4-2-3-Wondo. Hopefully this is a good thing.

 

Did you try a:

4-2-(1-MPG-1)-Wondo? Or a 4-2-(1-MPG)-(Djalo-Wondo)?

 

They didn't have MPG on the roster. It was JBP+Cronin in front on the back four, with Salinas, Djalo, and Cato lined up under Wondo.

 

I was kidding of course. If he's on FIFA '14 but still no announcement, the FO has a real serious issue with making announcements :--).

Cato instead of Harris - good. Gotta go Smurf...

[strike]Bash[/strike] -> Smurfs

At least the VTA are aware there's a game on... though no mention of increased service which is key. Unless one of their smiley ambassadors want to carry me back downtown on their backs. I'm going to presume they're not that stupid and will have extra services on for it. Please for the love of God don't be that stupid.

 

Nobody ever went broke underestimating a government bureaucracy so expect the worst.

 

Smurfball over bashball(goonieball) any day of the week.

 

Any organized tailgating, or are we just winging this mother****er? Not about to drag two five year olds on public transit from Oakland so driving the big ass van down. Pray for me.

 

I'm thinking the same thing, but be advised that they are closing down part of the San Tomas trail. I'm not sure how much yet, but I'm quite sure it will be from Agnew road on the south side. It's possible they'll close it at Great America parkway on the north side, although I'm just speculating on that. The 'bicycling' tab on the website said you'll have to loop around to the train station and come out essentially at the Golf Course entrance. The good news is that they have valet parking lots for bikes!

 

Thanks, see y'all at the game.

 

Mother of God this sounds awful...that being said I wouldn't miss it. Based on how long it will take to get out of this hell hole...any one ready for a post game tail gate breakfast?

 

Is no one planning on camping out?

 

Any word on if the Sounders are still trying to defiantly refuse to come down? Any word on how the Ultras are taking this game? Because we have NBCSN and the local press for this one.

 

I think it was just the ECS who said they didn't want to come down. My guess is that there will be a number of individual fans that make the trip.

 

Agreed on both points, and it's probably why they are doing it. Does not make me want to go to an NFL game. Ever.

 

Oh my! How I already miss those halcyon days of old in Porta-Potty Field.

 

Did anyone get their tickets in the mail? I don't seem to have mine. What does the envelope look like?

When I talked to a quakes rep, the first thing they asked me was if I received mine yet, so I think many people must not be getting them. He told me I have to go to the ticket office at Levi's on game day to get them printed out. Open's at 10am. So lucky me, I'll probably make two trips there so I don't have to fight the crowds waiting in that line just before the game starts.
