    The Storm website has just announced that defender Matt Johnson will be out for one month and they have signed local kid Eric Luken to a 5 game contract.

    Capt - do you mean the 3 girls in the Matt Johnson jerseys at the last game? I sat right by them - one or two were from San Diego - the third moved here already (and one will be moving here soon). Nice girls. Funny - didn't think you saw them from behind the goal. They said they would be back for more games. We'll see Sunday. Bang that drum!

    Another note - what happened to CFO Carey Moore?

    The Storm's game at California on January 7th will be televised on Comcast Chicago tape delay on January 9th at 1PM according to the team's website. Brian Bauer did say that this was in the works.

    This game is live in California and can be seen live in Chicago if you have Directv and their Sports pack. I believe it is Channel 654 on DTV. The tape delayed broadcast is like last year early in the season at Philadelphia which was shown a few day later as well. The Cougars and the Kixx both have deals with their local Comcast spoerts networks. Expect the March 11 th game at Calfornia to be shown on delay as well as it is also being televised by the Cougars.

    Speaking of TV, did anyone notice at yesterday's game up in the balcony across from the benches there appeared to be a broadcast going on. I doubt it was for the webcast as they had a black and yellow backdrop and with alot of lighting as well. There were also more cameras taping the game than usual.Will this game show up on tv as well? Cable access, On Demand like Milwaukee does with their home games? Were you a part of this Kenn?

    The word I got on that was that it wsome sort of test to see if it could be done.

    Maybe some college project or something. But from what I heard they weren't pros and it wasn't airing anywhere.

    The Storm ended their 4 game losing streak by defeating the Cougars 9-7. Gus Kartes had 4 goals and 1 assist and just miss tying Awadla Morad's team record of 5 goals in one game . Anthony Maher scored his first Storm goal a minute into the game. Mathew Steawrt played his best game of the year , he was very active on the floor adding a goal and an assist. Danny Waltman scores his second empty net goal of the year. The Storm has picked up midfielder Semir Mesanovic from the Wave.

    Great bounce back win aginst the Steamers. Storm played backup keeper Jeff Ricey today and he looked solid. Newcomer Semir Mesanovic hat the hat trick. Valle , Stewart , and Novi each added goals.

    The Storm is playing the defending champion Wave sunday. Do any of the Storm " fans " in this forum care? Or is the only Storm coversation on this board have to do with the doomsday clock! The Storm had a great win last week against the Steamers and nobody wants to talk about it. Why are you people even wasting your time worrying about if the team is going to be here next year when nobody cares to talk about the games.I think people just want to complain because the attendance last year was better , but it still was not " good enough" . If the Storm was to get a sellout , then people would be complaining about it bing either " too many kids " , or " the crowd is not into the game ".

    It was a great win last Sunday. I hope they win again this Sunday against the Wave. I'm expecting a very good game. Despite the Bears game, I'll probably be at the UIC pavilion with my family. The kids should enjoy the mascot game.

    Skip . Good for you. That has to be tough choice for you and I just wish you did not have to be in a position to chose between the 2 , Storm game against the rival Wave would have fit like a glove this saturday night.

    Waltman was goalkeeper of the week? No offense to Danny, but that was not one of his better games.

    To be honest , that is just what I said. There were alot of goals given up this week and I guess he was the best of the rest.

    Only three freaking teams played this week, folks. Milwaukee (0-2, giving up 16 goals), St.Louis (1-0, giving up 4) and Chicago (1-0, giving up 5).

    Brett Phillips no doubt finished second, but he only faced 8 shots on goal. Waltman faced 15, making 10 saves.

    So why be surprised that Waltman got GKOTW when there were only three candidates?

    Because he had a poor first half of the game and he gave up a terrible goal in the second half so I didn't think that merited any type of honor. I didn't bother making an in-depth comparison of his performance to the performances of the other two goalies this weekend because I was just making an off-handed comment on a soccer board and not doing a master's thesis on the performances of MISL goalkeepers this past weekend. OK?

    I grew up with basketball and went to a Bulls game and sat in the lower level suites. About the most boring spectator sport exprience I have ever had. Much more intensity at a Storm game. The obvious difference is the stadium attendance which creates a spectacle itself. It is still mind boggling that people would rather go to a basketball game vs. the MISL. I saw more uncoordinated geeks on the court than I care to. Sweetny looked about 50 lbs over. Nowizky didnt even give a damn until the last 4-5 minutes. This is sport?
