The Galaxy Season Ends

By: Laurie | Comments 26 Comments

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?

Galaxy’s Playoff Hopes Not Yet Dead, But They’re Not at All Well*

By: Laurie | Comments 7 Comments

If we’d won last night, we could have done it on our own, without anybody else’s help. If we’d lost, the dream would be over. Instead, we’re in limbo, relying not just on ourselves but on help from FC Dallas and Real Salt Lake.
Of all the teams I would prefer not to have [...]

Galaxy 2-1 Toronto: The Dream Continues

By: Laurie | Comments 11 Comments

This is me, with my mind filled with, like, love, and happiness, and, y’know, world peace and an end to famine and stuff.
And…um…wine. (Which does make the Galaxy games much easier to watch. I highly recommend it.)
Seriously, though, what a great day! I dragged myself out of bed this morning [...]

Galaxy Take Out Houston, 2-1

By: Laurie | Comments 9 Comments

I knew they had it in them. I also (in my mind) predicted the goal scorers: Nate Jaqua, Carlos Pavon, Gavin Glinton. (My big fear was that there would be some Houston scores I hadn’t predicted.)
I figured Jaqua would score because he had something to prove. And [...]

Some More Thoughts on the Galaxy-Crew Game

By: Laurie | Comments No Comments

I finally got to watch most of the first half of Sunday’s game. And since there is NOTHING going on in Galaxy-land this week, aside from David Beckham working hard to kick the ball around without getting reinjured, I thought I’d offer up a thought or two.
– Boy, that Troy Roberts goal was flukey, [...]

What do The Galaxy Have in Common With Dorothy-In-Oz?

By: Laurie | Comments 2 Comments

I have a trivia question for you: I’m going to give you a list of players, and I want you to tell me what two things they all, with the exception of Chris Klein, have in common. Are you ready?
Starters
1 – Joe Cannon (GK)
2 – Mike Randolph
3 – Ty Harden
7 – [...]

Crew 1-2 Galaxy (and they continue to tease us with that P word. You know. Playoffs.)

By: Laurie | Comments 1 Comment

You know what’s frustrating? Trying to figure out what’s going on in a broadband game when your internet connection isn’t working and all you’re getting is still shot followed by still shot followed by blank screen followed by “page reload” followed by…
It’s a little like trying to figure out those impressionist pointillist paintings made [...]

Galaxy Beats 9-Man KC, 1-0

By: Laurie | Comments 3 Comments

Something seems to have happened while I was out of the country. The Galaxy have apparently become a team. And this is true even when they’re playing rather uninspired soccer, as was the case last night. Their play, at least in the past couple of games, has gotten much more precise. And [...]

Galaxy 2-1 Dallas

By: Laurie | Comments 7 Comments

Every once in a rare while this season, the Galaxy can still put a silly, happy smile on my face. This was one of those days. A solid and well-played game that actually ended with a win. How long has it been since that happened? (Well, maybe it was the Colorado [...]

Galaxy Take on the Sleazebags of FC Dallas

By: Laurie | Comments No Comments

Remember back in the preseason when I was joking about creating a rivalry and using a rational process to decide on a team to hate? (I am still amazed at how many people took me seriously.)
Well, this rational decision-making process is no longer necessary. I have found my team to hate. My [...]
