Galaxy Roster Update
By: Laurie |I don’t actually have an LA Galaxy roster update, because the LA Galaxy website doesn’t think we need to know these things. And while it is really fun to read about Easter egg hunts and Miss LA Galaxy… Well, sigh. Galaxy folks, you underestimate your audience.
Fortunately there are other teams [...]
Posh Does Designer Duds and Reality TV
By: Laurie |Okay, first thing, I’m probably not the person to ask about high fashion. When it comes to buying clothes, I have two criteria:
1) Will this get me in and out of the store really, really fast?, and
2) Will this keep me from being naked?
Yes to both? Well, here’s my credit card.
Although I did [...]
See All the 2006 MLS Games. Wait, No, Just Kidding
By: Laurie |Here we continue the exciting, ongoing saga of Laurie Trying to Watch 2006 Galaxy Games.
If you’ll remember back to right before Valentine’s Day, I recommended this service from MLSnet. Hey, $10 to watch every game from the 2006 season? Cheap entertainment. And I really assumed that it was only a [...]
Galaxy Salaries for 2006 (Or: $$$, Part I)
By: Laurie |I’m in the process of researching Galaxy salaries and how they’ll be affected by Beckham’s arrival (and how much this will affect the decision as to whether Landon Donovan stays or goes next year. Not that anybody’s actually talking about that. Yet.)
So here’s step 1: Take a look at salaries [...]
Galaxy 4, Bermuda 0
By: Laurie |The LA Galaxy website is on the ball today. Only a 24-hour wait for this one. Way to go, Galaxy website folks!
And I am so taking back my “wimps” characterization. The Galaxy did play Friday night against the Bermuda National Team, and they did it battling “extreme winds and the occasional rain [...]
Galaxy: Odds and Ends For the Week (with a Little Bit of Snark)
By: Laurie |– The Galaxy was supposed to play yesterday against a team that may or may not have been the Bermuda National Team. (I’ve read conflicting reports.) The game was scheduled for yesterday evening, but on Thursday the Galaxy-Revolution audio broadcast said that they were expecting storms and gale-force winds before game time and [...]
Ooh! It’s the David Beckham Academy!
By: Laurie |The fun and exciting promo I’ve just received from MLS is for the David Beckham Academy. Perfect for the LA mom, because this will totally get the little brats out of the house so she can continue getting it on with the pool boy.
Or was that “Desperate Housewives”? Whatever.
What do you [...]
Today Only! Obsolete Uniforms! Only Full Price!
By: Laurie |So as part of my dedicated effort to learn to love the Galaxy and MLS, I’ve signed on to receive every little promo and junk e-mail that the Galaxy has to offer. I want it all! Easter Egg Hunts! Dollar sales! Beckham Academy! (More on that one later.)
It was [...]
The Post in Which I Fawn Obsequiously Over The NE Revolution
By: Laurie |Galaxy lost to the Revolution today. Which means I lost the freakin’ bet with NE Revolution Offside bloggers Jeff and Sabin, so I must now dedicate this post to how incredible their team is.
This sucks. Whose idea was this stupid bet anyhow?
But at any rate. The Galaxy lost 3-1. [...]
Thomas “Mad Dog” Gravesen Heading To LA?
By: Laurie |It’s funny. I was just reading a 2005 article about Real Madrid where Thomas Gravesen was listed as playing with David Beckham, Luis Figo and Zinedine Zidane. I don’t know about Gravesen, but those other three? Let’s just say that for some (although NOT my happily married self! Of course not!) [...]
