Good On Ya, Landon

Our very own, freakishly skilled, Landon Donovan received his 100th cap for the USMNT yesterday at Giants Stadium against #1 in the world ranked Argentina. Although it’s arguable that it’s easier to reach 100 caps when playing for the US (where the competition for caps has been weaker than for other world teams, like [...]

And Sideline Views will save the day. The game is not being televised and is only being broadcast via Spanish radio, so head on over to Sideline Views at 7:30 PST for some great liveblogging. (Correction: The Galaxy site will have the English radio broadcast.)
Both Landon and Becks have reunited with their respective national [...]
News Before it Happens: Landon to Create an International Incident
By: Laurie | 5 Comments
Just in case you don’t read the comments, reader PocketKings has this theory about how the Galaxy-Iran friendly will play out:
AP Newswire – This just in, Landon Donovan creates international incident when he purposely crosses himself 50 million times before taking a penalty kick. After completing his hat trick, Donovan mimics the use of a [...]
The Galaxy to do Battle with the Axis of Evil?
By: Laurie | 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.)
Iran. You know. The country that won’t let women come [...]

A few little things:
First off, is this not an awesome photo? It’s my new computer wallpaper, replacing this one of Becks and the kids. (Thanks, Mag!)
Second, look here! Jen and I get to tick off another minute from our fifteen minutes of fame. The answer to the questions we [...]

Just a few thoughts on Beckham’s performance during the England v. France match today.
*He worked tirelessly on both offense and defense.
*With the exception of one or two, his crosses were spot on.
*He had a chance at the goal early on, sliding far post, that would have silenced his detractors.
*Regardless of the missed chance (and I’m [...]
The Video of Beckham’s 1998 Sending Off vs. Argentina
By: Laurie | 4 Comments
I went searching for video of David Beckham’s little meltdown at the end of the Dallas game the other night.
(I’m still trying to process that one. What’s up with his temper in this off-season? Is he trying to prove that he’s still got the passion for the game? Or is [...]
Post-Game Thoughts on the Seoul-Galaxy Game
By: Laurie | 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 [...]

A huge thanks to George for that little date/time reminder, or I would have missed this entirely.
That Galaxy game is scheduled for tonight (yes, tonight, Feb. 29) at 11:30 Pacific. Be there!
I’m not sure that I’ll be liveblogging, but I’ll definitely be watching the game with my computer on, so feel free to stop [...]
A Tudela Photo
By: Laurie | 3 Comments
Here we have a fun photo of Josh Tudela from Saturday’s match. (Is anybody else happy he shaved? And am I the only one to like the headband? Why do I like the sight of players in headbands so much?)
But anyhoo. I believe the goal in this game was his first [...]
