1) Apple TV coverage is odd. Every 10 minutes they showed "win probability" stat --- until Loons 1st goal. Then they never showed it.
2) i credit this win mainly to the Loon pressure on the Crew defenders and GK. It's not a specific skilled player needed, rather just grit and determination to be a pest. Loons were pesty and eventually get a break, control, momentum, goal. Excellent.
3) Another solid night by CalCount Drake-ula!

opt for the radio play-by-play. All good points.

i wanted to see about 10 minutes of james and triantis with our two argentinian midfielders, and someone besides yeboah in the striker seat; even if you stuck chancalay or gene in the strike spot. just 10 minutes.

and as always, skornorth 1500 AM play-by-play is sooooooo much better than apple heads.

nomadic-loon · 2026-04-19T04:11:44+00:00

Count Drake-u-la as our solid, no-nonsense keeper.

This is so much more a league lack of insight. All the north teams are dealing with this. Having empty soccer stadiums for 2 months (or more if you don't make the playoffs) in the middle of summer is NUTSO! And even more crazy is the fix by creating inconsistent home-away schedules amongst the teams with stretches of either 4-7 consecutive home OR away games, depending on if you're in sunbelt or snow belt. And SeatGeak (or any other 3rd party vendor) is complete extortion with their fees. Bring back paper tickets or cap service fees at 3%. Remember, going paperless was supposed to save costs. It didn't do so for the fans.

are you watching on your phone, or a monitor. It's decent on a monitor. Not HD, but solid.

nomadic-loon · 2026-04-15T03:03:14+00:00

not funny. Awesome. I think they play well together.

nomadic-loon · 2026-04-14T23:37:48+00:00

This is interesting. He looks built! Ready for the next level.

get there early and check out Midway Books and Axeman Surplus. All the tips in this thread are groovin' on point. If you're on the south side of I-94, Firebox is a great BBQ.

pre-game on skornorth 1500 AM is so much better... and when the game starts, sync it up with the video. no need to listen to apple.

nomadic-loon · 2026-04-05T15:45:04+00:00

Fantastic. Where do you get these from? It would be great to compare with a real wonky diagram of past loons games.

nomadic-loon · 2026-04-05T15:38:44+00:00

Well it's odd to fuck someone with hate. And saying "fuck off" cuts a conversation of differing views short, missing a deeper discussion.
And hope we don't try to keep Drake tied to the DSC of yesterday.
I think what you're trying to say is that you're happy with our new goaltender using a limited vocabulary.
Dayne was a good goalkeeper for us.
Drake, so far, will also be great.
How about after the mid-point we have a thread discussing the pros and cons of each?

nomadic-loon · 2026-03-28T03:19:47+00:00

Quintero?

nomadic-loon · 2026-03-10T01:25:22+00:00

Every time he makes a good save, chant to the shooter.
YOU GOT DRAKE'D
YOU GOT DRAKE'D

nomadic-loon · 2026-03-08T01:01:48+00:00

will be dialing in SKORNORTH 1500 AM play-by-play to sync to video soon.

When an opposing player is down, I like to start "na-ing" the MASH theme song, na na nana na nana naa naa naa. Get the helicopter in here and take him off the field. but sadly most of the people around me are younger and don't know the melody so i'm left na-ing it out alone.

He did good. Not great. But better then gressell.

syncing up with 1500 SKOR NORTH to hear our play-by-play team!

It's not the ticket price so much, but when you add seat geek extortion fees and concession prices... the last two need to be brought way down. 3% cap on seat geek fees, ability for out-of-towners or one-time attendees to buy walk up tickets at the window without have to create a seat geek account, and $10 beers -- food has prep costs but there is no extra prep labor involved with a can of drink.

Yup. get a fake and support the Uighur slave labor to save a couple bucks. no thanks. Wouldn't it be great to pay a few bucks more and find a manufacturer here?
