Pre-match: St. Louis CITY SC - San Jose Earthquakes (Saturday, 3/18) pregame thread

Honestly Goodsy, i don't care how she spells her name as long as she's not broadcasting our games.

 

I thought maybe she had a brother.

 

What the heck? I'm going to predict a tie. We are going to have a lot of close games and ties this year. Not sure who is going to replace Monteiro. HIs passing and decision has been poor in general, but we will miss his work rate.

 

We get Eric Krakauer who will be announcing into thin air, and former player Lloyd Sam

 

I haven't been a big fan of the rotating commentators. Also, I only re-watched a portion of the game, but Danielle kept spouting out stats which was annoying. I assume she was told to provide the info. We will see how it evolve over the season...

 

Bundle up kiddies!

"Right now, weather guessers team #1 have Saturday's high around 34 and low around 21, with a NW breeze about 17 MPH, and weather guessers team #2 has the gametime temps in the high 20s with low 20s wind chill. Both promise "partly cloudy" which can feel like just-stepped-out-of-the-shower-into-a-frigid-room-and-can't-find-a-towel delightful. I don't think dogsleds are needed, but multi-layer wrapped-like-a-mummy wouldn't be overdoing it."

Quoted from the St. Louis boards.

 

Wimps and wussies.

 

Glad we live in a place where we don’t need multiple teams of “weather guessers”.

 

Her, let me help you.

 

Yeah, they're called Californians.

 

?

 

I distinctly remember you playing weather man a few times here.

 

I have another word for it, but its not Big Soccer appropriate.

 

Let's be clear, these are Southern Californians.

 

Here in Wisconsin there are 12 seasons:

Winter
Fool's Spring
Second Winter
Spring of Deception <--------- Right now we are here
Third Winter
The Pollening
Actual Spring
Summer
Hell's Front Porch
False Fall
Second Summer
Actual Fall

 

Orange County GOP committee

 

Summer is between "Actual Spring" (of course squeezed due to "The Pollening") and "Hell's Front Porch". How long does it last? About a week?

This year not so much, but normally I think we essentially have one long summer - one sunny day after another, some days colder than others, though it can be further broken down like this:

Colder Summer
Early Summer
Summer
Indian Summer

 

What the f*ck is an Indian Summer?

 

Warm weather in autumn. Well-known expression among us ancients.

Since this is the St. Louis thread, here’s how the Euros (famous Czech poster artist Alphonse Mucha, in France) perceived the Americans, circa 1904.

 

Funny, they look like DNC posterchildren.
