fuegeazy

so, mike and i went and saw the fuego whip up the bakersfield brigade on saturday night. the fuego played very well together, and looked very potent on the attack. our side scored 4, including a hat trick, and gave up two cheap goals in the last 15 minutes. good stuff overall.

today, i read a story that was from july 3. former u.s. national team player (3 world cups), eric wynalda signed to play with bakersfield. wha? dude's been retired two years, but still, national teamer, scored the first goal of the mls, now playing in the developmental league? maybe he's only playing home games, because he wasn't there saturday.

that win puts the fuego in second place, and the playoffs. but, right now we're only in 2nd on goal differential with one game to go. we need to win next saturday @ san francisco (currently 4th place) and hope that 3rd place ventura loses to l.a. storm (6th place). the first place san fernando are done, so maybe if we win 10-0, we can pass them on goal differential.

Oh, 10, nil. Is that all? Shouldn't be a problem.

Eric Wynalda is a jerk, and a terrible commentator. As far as the Brigade, they hired him as a publicity stunt. I guess he needed something to do after ESPN/ABC suspended him for saying "Jim Rome can suck my ----"
