I’ve poked around on cbcsports.ca to see if there will be a video of it and I can’t quite tell. If [...]

The Galaxy to do Battle with the Axis of Evil?

By: Laurie | Comments 5 Comments

Do we want to paint this in deep, dark philosophical terms, or is it just another high-profile Galaxy friendly?
Whatever. Our boys are apparently going to play Iran in May. (Despite previous Galaxy front office protestations to the contrary.)

I have been frantically and desperately trying not to find out what happened in the game this morning until I can watch it myself. Although I may have seen one headline. And if so I may be happy about it. We’ll see. Hope that’s not a spoiler. (For what [...]

By: Laurie | Comments 9 Comments

First off. Umm… Penalties?!?!
Did anybody else who was watching the game know that we went to penalties after drawing in regulation time? Did they show it on TV? Did they say anything about it? I know my brain is fuzzy at 1:30 in the morning, but I think [...]

“The right foot seems to be working.”
– LA Galaxy player David Beckham, after delivering two perfect crosses which led to the Galaxy’s two goals.

So I Heard a Positive Galaxy Rumor…

By: Laurie | Comments 12 Comments

This is over on big soccer, and I’ve also gotten third-hand confirmation elsewhere, so I assume it’s true.
But I heard that the Gals had a closed door scrimmage with Houston today (Friday) and kicked some Dynamo butt. In a big way. 4-0. Big Soccer says it was against the Houston reserves [...]
