Propaganda: The Capital City Crew

Soccer is a game made up of many elements; Speed, Power, Accuracy, Vision, and even a bit of Luck and Magic among others. To honor some of our more dedicated and favorite players on this incarnation of The Capital City's soccer team I've cooked up a new wallpaper for those of you who are interested. I plan on following up with tributes to more players both past and present in the future so hopefully we'll see more on this subject sometime soon.

Ultra Merch: HSH 5th Year shirt

So awhile back I posted a few of my ideas for the Hudson Street Hooligans fifth year T-shirt. Now thanks to the work of the wonderful guys running HSH the design has taken root and become reality. It was featured on the Ohio News Network program CrewXtra being worn by Crew legend and fan favorite Duncan Oughton. So if you're in the capital city stop by the HSH bar down on the corner of Summit and Oakland and pick up your own.

Propaganda: Legacy

There's been a lot of talk around the interwebs about all the new teams joining up in MLS. Everyone's been oohing and awwing about their fans and how wonderful they are blah blah blah. Don't get me wrong It's nice too see the packed stadiums and it's great to see the excitement around the league, however... If there is one thing that drives me crazy, is the contempt that these new fans seem to show for their forebears. They're joining a league as it is reaching peak popularity and standing on the shoulders of the hard work put in by the league's original '96 clubs. So to honor the legacy of The Massive Club. THE original team in MLS here's a new piece of wallpaper propaganda adorned with the names of just a few of the Crew's stand out players.

Propaganda: 11 players, 1 goal

So it's been awhile since I put out a new wallpaper and figured it was time to remedy that situation. So without wasting any more of your time here is the new bit of propaganda and what is currently adorning the desktop of my laptop.

Crew vs Vancouver: first contact

The Crew has kept their record of never losing to a Canadian club (whiskey not counted) intact on the back of Emilio Renteria's brace in their 2-1 victory. This was the first game in over a year that I did not take in from the Nordecke. Instead I was on the stage enjoying the beer garden and view from behind the goal. So here's a few pictures to take in of the pre-game and game itself, enjoy...

Crew vs TFC: View from the Bar

So finally after over a month without my own laptop I finally have it back. This is a soccer blog so I won't go into the details of my ordeal but lets just say I will never be buying a Dell Computer again after all of that hassle. Onto the game!

It was finally that time of year again, The Massive club were taking on Terrible FC up in the land of ice and snow. This yearly guarantee of at least a point on the road came a good time of the year, Easter Weekend. This meant the usually small crowds that are associated with this were not our problem and we could watch from the comfort of our local bars. I took in the game down at the Hudson Street Hooligans bar on Summit and Oakland. The bar is a members only club that can be joined for just 20 bucks, for which you plenty of goodies to make it worth the trouble. I highly recommend checking it out sometime if you get the chance, It is the only supporters owned bar in the USA and a great place to catch a game.
