My SuperLiga Awards to Our Galaxy Guys
By: Laurie |Well, we may not have taken THE award at SuperLiga, but that doesn’t mean our guys aren’t worthy of winning something. So I’m creating my own set of awards in the wake of that courageous, painful loss on Wednesday.
First the “Remember This Feeling — It Comes From the Presence of a Backbone” award to: [...]
Beckham Out 4-6 Weeks?
By: Laurie |Bad news, folks. From what I’m reading, it looks like a knee sprain, and it looks like it could be another 4-6 weeks of healing time for David Beckham.
“At this stage, it’s hard to tell, but it doesn’t feel good. With a ligament strain, it’s four to six weeks. We’ll have to [...]
That Amazing Chris Klein Goal
By: Laurie |You know the only thing worse than writing up such a painful loss on the morning after?
Writing up such a painful loss on the morning after with a hangover.
I blame Verizon. There’s something wrong with our internet connection right now where it’s running so slow that we can’t watch video. And [...]
Galaxy. Ouch. Losing on Penalties.
By: Laurie |How much does it sum up this season that we essentially lost SuperLiga on an own goal, followed by missed penalties by the ultra-reliable Landon and Xavier?
Ouch.
More tomorrow.
Stop the Presses! Becks May Play in SuperLiga After All!
By: Laurie |Despite still being reported by the Galaxy website as “Out” for the SuperLiga game, David Beckham apparently today told the press that he planned to try to play.
Does this situation define the phrase “mixed emotions” or what?
If he played, and they won… Well, LA would get some silverware to counteract [...]
Beckham Out For SuperLiga
By: Laurie |Well, this year just keeps getting better and better, doesn’t it?
(Note: That was sarcasm.)
Looks like Beckham will not be playing tomorrow in SuperLiga, that ankle injury (combined with horrendously poor management decisions) being the gift that keeps on giving. And both Landon Donovan and Abel Xavier are listed as “questionable.” [...]
A Few Galaxy Odds and Ends
By: Laurie |First off, is anybody seeing anything about a Ty Harden injury? Lane posted in the comments that he’d read it, but I’m not finding it. This doesn’t mean it isn’t there — just that I may not have given google the correct magic words. But I’m hoping it’s wrong, because [...]
Let’s Also Check Out that Donovan Goal
By: Laurie |Earlier I gave you the David Beckham goal. Now I give you the Landon Donovan goal off the Beckham assist. All I can say is: How in the world did he place it so perfectly? And kudos to Donovan for seeing the hole that allowed him to finish it off. [...]
Video of Beckham’s First Goal
By: Laurie |So this might not be considered Beckham’s first MLS goal, since it was scored in SuperLiga and not in league play. But it was without question his first goal scored for an MLS team. (Which is what I’ll tell my great-grandkids when I describe seeing it live.)
Here’s the video, which was [...]
Landon Donovan is a Classy Guy
By: Laurie |I was recently reading that bra manufacturers are going to have to alter their product. Seems that a large number of women are getting implants, and the result has a different shape than the real thing. (I believe the word used in the article was “pointier.”) So the old models don’t [...]
