SJMN (9/14/2002): "For Quakes, a playoff appetizer"

bpc · Sep 14, 2002

``A split does it for us,'' Yallop said. ``We want to get the result in L.A., though. We have to. We can't expect to lose down there and come back and have the pressure to win here.''

A split and we would be okay...but could you imagine the momentum with two wins?! Go Quakes!

A SPLIT!!! I do not want to lose any games to LA. We need to beat them and shut down Ruiz.

A couple of weeks ago, after we lost to LA in the Open Cup, I saw Joe Cannon in the autograph line shaking his head and saying (to all of us who would listen) "You can't lose to LA!" Get 'em tonight, Joe. Shut LA out, big guy.
