In the highlight video of the final (on the NCAA site), the narrator says that Stanford is losing only one player to graduation. Can it really be...
The only times Bernardez looked really bad were when we were playing three in the back. He just isn't fast enough to play in a 3-back system. But...
Have to figure Leitch will be fired (or perhaps re-assigned back to the youth setup) after the season. The first couple games seemed fine, but in...
Interesting lineup. Are they going back to a 4-4-2 empty bucket? If not, who is the other wingback (besides Salinas)?
Crowd counting six seconds on goal kicks = comedy.
It seems like there are only about three natural wing-backs on the roster: Lima, Salinas, and Cato. With Cato not even on the bench today, I was...
The Thompson sub completely changed the game. Is Thompson that good, or is Dawkins that bad?
They should bring in Vako and Hoesen for Dawkins and Wondo at halftime.
No punting for young kids seems reasonable to me. What do they mean by "Offside is determined at the BOL"? Does that mean you now cannot be...
Wow, so sorry to hear about your foot! You've really had a run of bad luck. I am still hanging in there for now, but not sure how much longer. I...
I'd rather have it too cold than too hot. Yes, it's cold and windy at the Burlingame field, but after a little running you barely notice the cold....
It never occurred to me that the team might agree to something like that. Would be very cool to get to play in a real stadium.
I hope they don't put a stadium on that site. There is already a great grass field there, used by many rec leagues. Would be a shame to lose it.
My reading of the trade is that the Quakes get these two things now: 1. The fifth spot in the allocation rankings. 2. $175K in GAM. In exchange,...
I only saw the first half but I agree with the consensus that Lima was a pleasant surprise. I had never seen him play before, and thought he might...
The latest rumor is Henok Goitum. Could be the next Innocent! (Not that I'm being pessimistic...)
Cato's shot was closer to being a throw-in than a goal. How can a pro miss the goal by THAT much?
We should change the forum tag-line to "Waiting for Godoy". Edit: aw crap, someone already made a similar (better) joke in another thread. Never...
I was just wondering about that. I thought this would be his big chance to get a game with Goodson out.
Really a bad decision to sub out MPG. He was playing well and looked really motivated today. Way to crush his spirit. Why not sub out one of our...
I don't think BigSoccer will go for it, but what about: Say "Goonies" again. Say "Goonies" again. I dare you! I double-dare you, motherf**ker....
Largest outdoor bar in North America, smallest club in MLS.
There are many reasons why the Quakes should not "stand in the way" of letting LA have Kljestan: 1. We are already stacked with talent at...
I disagree. At the time Torres touched the ball, Donovan had barely had time to move. He appeared to still be within the small corner-kick arc,...
I think Donovan was offside and the goal should have been disallowed. It's hard to be 100% sure, since none of the replays seem to have the...
