It’s USL-ALIVE!

Huzzah!  The only obstacle left is whether the Great Firewall and my internet connection are going to let me watch the mighty mighty PTFC.
Hi Mr. Witkowicz
I’m sure you get tons of email regarding the status of USL Live for next season, but I just relocated from Portland to Shanghai China, and I’m now very interested [...]

Well look who’s been called up to the big leagues

“Don’t think, Meat, you’ll only hurt the ball club”
My penchant for major league snark has caught the eye of a big league club. My first appearance out of the bullpen can be found here.

rants and raves

Rant: Fucking Timbers. They’re playing like they’re two goals up when they’re two goals down.
Rave: little piggy Give-away that gave the Army ammunition to pelt the Puerto Rico Goalkeeper who shook his nuts at us.
Rant: Fucking Timbers.
Rave: Bringing tourists into the Army who had fun despite the look of deep sadness on the [...]

Belated independence day huzzah

I had a pretty good independence day, including leading a bike tour for some PDX noobs, giving directions to I5 to a folksy father and son team from small town Oklahoma, and preceded by a great friendly match between the Timbers and a Monarcas De Morelia, a vastly superior team. Friendlies are great because [...]

txt msg from NYC

A budy of mine just sent me this text message:
“Just went to Momofuku and here’s the thing- Biwa is better.”

overheard in the portland interwebs

From my boy Setpiece Toebash over at the Timbers Army forums:
“As a dutiful employee of the city of Gresham, I can attest that most of my frost-tipped brethren have the slickest neon green sleds complete with spoilers and tailpipes with the tokyo drift effect built in. I’m unsure about what happens when the grid [...]

Cooking with Big Papi

The Red Sox have thankfully not replayed 1978 and have won their first AL East title in a good long time. This wonderful news, as my other teams have had nice but ultimately unfulfilled championship runs (first the Suns get fucked by Tim Donaghy, then the Mighty Timbers get fucked by a quartet of [...]

the NBA draft, the Timbers, and why I’m not posting

Forgive me folks, this is barely food related, and I doubt any of the frequent visitors to this site will care a lick about this post, but…
I swore off the NBA after the Suns clearly demonstrated that the NBA was not only fixed, but fixed by idiots. Yet, here I am, on my day [...]
