When I was in France last month for the France-Scotland game, I came away very impressed with the Scots and their Tartan Army. Wow, I thought after viewing the cuddly drunks enthusiastic fans who support the Scotland team, Scotland must be a delightful place.
Well, I’m rethinking this (or at least their taste [...]
What’s the News on Those Galaxy “Cliques”?
By: Laurie | 2 Comments
I read a particularly interesting two paragraphs in a Billy Witz LA Daily News article from a few days ago about a team meeting that took place right after the end of the season.
Team chemistry was also a subject that was addressed.
Cliques developed within the team - mostly along the lines of age - [...]
Becks and Co. to Play Against Lalas and Co. For Charity.
By: Laurie | 6 Comments
Well, this is not exactly how or where the guys had hoped to be playing in November, but it’s for a good cause, so that makes it okay. Right?
The Galaxy, apparently including David Beckham, will be squaring off next Sunday, November 4, against Hollywood United at the Home Depot Center. All [...]
Beckham is the Manliest of Manly Men (But Did They Consider Chabal?)
By: Laurie | 7 Comments
David Beckham is the Manliest of Manly Man. The poll says so.
Okay, so I don’t really get it.
I personally would have picked a guy who was a little less…oh…what’s the word…it’s on the tip of my tongue…starts with a “wh” and ends with a “ipped.”
But the “Ask Men” [...]
The Future of the LA Galaxy Offside
By: Laurie | 7 Comments
A couple of weeks ago, reader CentralCoaster asked me this:
“Are you gonna ditch us once the Sounders join MLS?”
Fair question. If any of you have been around since the LA Galaxy Offside started up last January, you’ll remember that this blog began as an experiment: Could my French-football-loving self learn to love and [...]

Yes, the 2007 season is over. *Sigh.* Have you worked your way through the Kubler-Ross grief stages? Are you finished with denial, anger, bargaining and depression and on the road to arriving at acceptance?
Yeah, me neither.
But time moves on, and there is no rest for our Galaxy boys. [...]
I am Not Saying This is Really Beckham Naked, but…
By: Laurie | 8 Comments
What can I say? I’m not saying it’s Beckham, and I’m not saying it’s recent. But this showed up in my inbox yesterday from an Italian website. And what else am I going to blog about in the off-season?
(I personally find this particular picture kind of icky. But there’s [...]

This time, sadly, my headline is correct. Chicago 1-0 Galaxy on a 93rd minute goal by Galaxy reject John Thorrington.
And what else is there to say?
Playoff Scenarios: How the Galaxy Can Still Do It
By: Laurie | 2 Comments
To at least partially make up for my major screw-up in telling the world we were out when we’re not, here’s a quick recap of the playoff run and how and why we can still make it. (In my defense, I spent the entire afternoon at Urgent Care with a son and his sprained [...]
KC Beats Dallas, and the Galaxy Dream … Okay, Wait a second… We’ve Still Got a Shot!
By: Laurie | 18 Comments
UPDATE: ACK!! Thanks, guys, for the comments and setting me straight! So I can’t add OR count. I knew KC had started at 37, making them out of our reach with 40, but I forgot there were still TWO playoff spots to be decided. So I prematurely gave everybody [...]
