    It was the most incredible game I've watched. Also the most stressful. Altman said his mom was so stressed she was sick. It's a two-game final, home is on the 22nd vs the Ft Lauderdale Strikers; away is on the 29th.

    We're starting the new season soon (probably -there is the small matter of the league not being sanctioned. Long story; IMSoccer News has the highlights: NASL Releases Press Statement Concerning US Soccers Decision to Decline Sanctioning | ). Anyway, we're getting ready for the new season, and...

    We're back! Okay, we're a step closer to being 'back'. We have a team, and if sanctioned, will have a league to play in. Thanks to Mendoza* for investing his $20million for the cause. NASL Bid for Sanctioning Division 2 Soccer Includes Atlanta and Minnesota | IMSoccer News *Okay, it probably...

    We do have some amazing goalkeepers here. The Carolina keeper (Nic Platter) played in Minnesota last year, for the Thunder. Matt VanOekel is a star in his own right. But the true hero for the Minnesota Stars is Joe Warren. STARS TV: 5-13-10 - NSC Minnesota Stars (starting at about 1:55)

    Actually, you get a bargain - it's only 12,754,774.13 GBP! That should help. :D

    "Band" is a generous term. :) If you want to play, pick up a drum, grab a cowbell, bring a horn, join in however you want. No skills or talent required. Why would you support Tampa Bay?! They're thugs in shiny clown suits! ;->

    Mendoza: No luck yet on photos of Takada, or game video either. The video comes from the home team, and I don't have much faith in AC St Louis getting it done. Last night's game was great fun - very WET great fun - and NSC should have the video up soon. I'm pretty sure Nessy was swimming near...

    I will mope around the house a lot (I have experience from last year when the Thunder went away) and return to my Eurosnob ways. I think we can watch EPL and Serie A, plus Euro 2012 qualifying and Champions League...

    No such luck. Since 1 August, we've had 2 draws and 2 losses. Against the MLS-bound Portland Timbers, 'Papa' Joe Warren picked up a red card and VanOekel was subbed in to defend the penalty kick (unsuccessfully). The rest of his game was good, including a nice double-save at 1:27 in the...

    I've received the shirt and scarf! I tried to post a photo, but it's not cooperating at the moment... Thank you, Mendoza! The exchange is complete. Almost. I'll drop your scarf in the mail today. ;->

    Do any of you collect scarves? I have Minnesota Thunder scarves from 2008 and 2009, (one of each) both still in packaging.
