San Jose Earthquakes - FC Dallas (Wednesday, 10/2) pre/in/postgame thread [R]

105 degrees in Los Gatos at 5:30. Heading to the game in about 45 minutes.

 

Won't be that bad at the game. ~85 degrees at game time, dropping to 80 by the end. It'll be balmy but not that uncomfortable.

 

I'm going for a pre-game run for three miles in a few minutes. Will skip going to the game and watch them at home. Go Quakes!

 

I'm going to have to watch on delay. Oh well.

Also, I don't care about other local sports teams, or Bay Area sports teams. Go Quakes!!

GO Quakesfans!!

 

It’s 94 degrees here on the grass at 6:30 pm.
I just realized this game is pointless, as FCD has no chance to make the playoffs

 

Starting Skahan at center forward after complaining a few weeks ago he didn't have any center forwards left (implying that he didn't consider Skahan a forward?). Or will Espinoza or Hernán play forward?

 

Wilson is back?

 

I thought Russell said we'd be playing some younger guys from the town? It's basically the same team as always. Just starting Verhoeven & skahan at forward. Bummed. I would have liked to have seen some younger kids called up.

 

Stadium looks empty. My friend who works for the yellow jackets says it’s really hot at the stadium, luckily she’s watching a luxury box so she’s under the roof.

 

I made it, so it’s all good.

 

at least on tv looks like a very sparse crowd.

 

We’re surrounded by scabs tonight! Hardly anyone in PPP

 

Whos captain tonight? JY dont have it

 

86 degrees at KO. Comfy in the stands except that the seats are warm

 

they just referred to JY as the captain

 

Ugh - Gruezo.

 

Espinoza is captain, he has the band

 

well a small crowd means short lines at the food trucks and concession windows. (Haven't been to PPP/Avaya in years do they still do the food trucks on the lawn)?
