Saturday Galaxy/Chivas USA Gameday & More
More than you ever wanted to know about your blogger: Why am I posting this alleged "preview" when it's almost noon? For the first time in years I stayed up until the wee hours in a (ultimately futile) attempt to finish this (highly recommended) novel.
So I'll keep this brief.
If you're going to the game tonight (an unusual 8 p.m. kick off, BTW, live on Fox Soccer Channel), there's a pre-game concert by A Cursive Memory.
Check them out:
Chivas USA is in Salt Lake City.
Game story.
Both ex-Galaxy midfielder Sasha Victorine and Brazilian Dejair, who has received his work permit, could make their debuts for Chivas USA.
Incidentally, Chivas USA supporters group the Union Ultras will host a viewing party at the Black Watch English Pub in Upland at 5:30 p.m. The pub is at 497 N. Central Avenue.
Friday college scores:
No. 2 UCLA women 3 Miami 0

Gotta finish this book.......

Pre-game concert by A Cursive Memory. Fitting, that, especially since the Galaxy has become a cursed memory. ;)
I hope this joke of a team loses.
Chivas USA is the only true team in LA.
