The Official 2021 San Jose Earthquakes related Blogs/Press thread

Jared Shawlee in the house!

 

Do tell about those devotion day events...

 

Prepay to watch my favorite coach get fired? Uh - no thanks.

 

Could a Kaval’s Kickoff be coming also? A Leitch’s Lineup, perhaps??

 

I just got my message too, but I started a new thread on it. Please feel free to merge if you think that is appropriate.

 

Hope you are well, Mark.

 

Anybody have an update on the SC county vote for the Fairgrounds land use...it supposedly happened yesterday 8/17...

 

What do they want to build there?

 

Soccer academy fields and facilities.

 

Oh wow I never knew this.

I always thought they would utilize the flight paths empty fields south of Pay Pal?

 

Quakes move from 17th to 11th in ESPN power rankings.

NEWS: Earthquakes to Face Mexico’s Cruz Azul in Friendly on Oct. 7
https://www.sjearthquakes.com/news/news-earthquakes-to-face-mexico-s-cruz-azul-in-friendly-on-oct-7

 

Got excited as I received an email from YouTube TV that they now carry Univision and Unimas. This means YouTube TV should show ALL Quakes games. No more watching on Twitter!

Only hope the SAP feature works so I can watch in English.

 

Flash back! Found this on Reddit and chuckled.

 

Story STILL checks out!

 

Someone on reddit says that the woman whom Shea hits on is his real-life wife. I guess that made him feel a lot more comfortable about doing the spot.

 

It is.

 

When I heard there would be an announcement today I didn't think it would be this big.
I really hope this is successful. This is good for the Quakes as we don't usually (never?) qualify for CCL or Leagues Cup. Now we get a free ride into the tournament and Leagues Cup games are always played in the USA. So this means home games for the Quakes against Liga MX clubs in a game that matters (not just a friendly).

I'm sure the Quakes FO is happy about this. I think most fans will enjoy it as well.

For the fans who aren't interested in inter-league play this is gonna suck for you. A month long break in the middle of the season and no doubt this will lessen the value of Supporters Shield and possibly MLS Cup ever so slightly.

 

For a moment in time it seemed the stars had aligned and I could finally watch ALL Quakes games with my YouTube TV subscription.

I should have known it was too good to be true.

Today I learn that YouTube TV is very likely to drop all NBC related channels. Which of course means it will be next to useless for watching Quakes games.

If this actually happens I will save myself $65 a month as I primarily use YouTube TV to watch the Quakes. However, I have no idea how I will watch the Quakes at that point as I don't plan to subscribe to cable ever again.

Man, that's brutal. youttubetv had been money for me for most of the last year. I see that the Seattle game is listed as available. Last Saturday's game is listed as unavailable. Vancouver game in Vancouver - unavailable. Beyond that availability is listed as "TBD".

 

No tweets before September 14? What is s/he hiding?
