Pre-match: San Jose Earthquakes - Austin FC (Saturday, 4/2) pregame thread

Blue corn mush, blue corn chips, blue corn tortillas.

 

Good match then for our attack though gotta say.

 

Not really blue either. This is apparently why there are so few blue fruits / veggies:

Individual pigments can differ considerably. One reason that there are so few naturally blue foods is that a combination of pigments is usually present in any given fruit or vegetable. Blue anthocyanins are chemically less stable than other pigments and are usually dominated by them.

 

Verde is the new brown. Pass it on.

 

EWWWWW BLUEEEEEE!

 

With the extreme drought we are in, I thought it was the other way around, brown is the new verde.

 

Only in guacamole.

 

A sad statement about how good our team has been this year, that this is what we are talking about.

 

So to prepare for FC Broccoli, the Quakes will eat blue corn and guacamole as a pre game meal?

 

Proper prep involves #fivehourtailgate.

Jamon asked the burning question - what’s up with so few chances, and the answer is what we’ve all been saying - too slow on the attack. Of course Jamon couldn’t help but to stack on another question. Just one good clear question guys!

 

Yeti. LOL.

Gonna bring my 15-dollar Safeway cloth 12-can royal blue (Quakes colored) cooler to the tailgate, as per usual the last decade or so. No need to drop several hundred on a Yeti.

 

We’re going to get ripped. Three to nil is my prediction.

 

I thought "merde" was the new brown .

 

I can't possibly imagine why, but these days I go to the games with a sense of dread, like "it'll be really terrible if we lose again", and that sinking feeling when the other team scores, instead of excitement about a possible or even (like the old days - pre-Almeyda / Stahre) a probable home win.

Not sure how many people realize that even in lean years at the new stadium pre-Almeyda it was fairly rare that we lost at home. 2015 - 3 home losses total, 2016 - 3 home losses total, 2017 - 2 home losses - we were 10-2-5! Now it only takes us 2 home games to lose 3 it seems.

 

I believe that we will win.

 

I stood behind Goalsevelt with Outlaws @ Levi’s in 2016. US v Colombia.

 

Merde has been brown for millennia.

 

We will smash the Broccolites 4-1. Take it to the bank!!

 

At this point I'd take an improbable 1-0 victory where the ball hits Jebo shoulder and ricochets off of Chofis's stomach and into the goal while a flock of seagulls miraculously descends multiple times to block sure goals for Austin. Seriously if we can't get a well-earned victory, how about some luck for once?

 

Verde is merde. How's that, to tie it all together in a multilingual way?
