In honor of the namesake of our opponent today, I am reminded of an I Love Lucy Episode where Lucy and Ricky were on a couples gameshow and they answered all the questions wrong up until the last question.

We've all seen the picture of George Washington crossing the Delaware, of course you have. So what did George Washington say while making that crossing?

GOOD MORNING YOU WONDERFUL SOL ROSA FANATICS!!!

Remember in the early 2000's that one show on Fox with Jessica Alba, where she plays a genetically enhanced super-soldier who runs away from her program and is set in Seattle. It got like cancelled after two seasons...but boy did it come in hot, Max Guevara (played by Alba) in her tastefully tight leather outfit just out there kicking butt and not even bothering to take names, but Seattle was such a drag that it seemed like her fight was never ending.

That is kind of like when we took a paddle to Portland's behind to end season 2 to make the playoffs, only to have to go to Seattle for the opening playoff games, and it was such a sludge, that we lost...thats like Dark Angel. But hey, its time to turn it around and get our three points there finally, and remind Seattle what they took from us, that game...and Jessica Alba kicking butt.

Match Hype:

Woke up this morning on this sticky morning, climbed up the Mountain Top of Hype to meet with our very own YASSS QUEEN. There she stood in a gunfighter's relaxed stance while wearing a Wool Stetson, jeans, dark blazer, and hand on her hip.

S: What are you thinking?

YQ: Los Angeles is a sunny place for shady people.

S: That sounds very disparaging.

YQ: Don't worry Shlomo, Los Angeles much like the beautiful game... is still for everyone. Happy Pride match.

Not sure about the field fam...I think we should all offer gratitude that the game wasn't streamed using a GoPro from the press box with some field shots sprinkled in, but at least the crowd mics were turned up higher than a WWE crowd booing Dom and Nick Mysterio.

Okay for the game, it was not Fra v Eng slobberknocker...thank god, not complaining, but when that many goals are scored in one single game, its better served when it doesn't involve a team you root for. Instead what we got was another steady performance, led mostly by the defense, and better aided by the attack this time, more possession, more xG, shots, etc... executed by our squad.

The first half was slightly tilted towards ACFC until the Huitema injury where the game leveled out a bit more. Sure Chacon got one that was called back, but that was also her 2nd time being called offside and it was very offsides, so we can't be worried about that, Sams and Gorden got that backline well tuned.

2nd half started off well enough after Borges either got dragged or attacked in the box, hard to tell which one the called the penalty on, but there seemed to be two fouls in the same area within milliseconds.

Chicago maybe had like five mins of momentum later in the game, but it was nothing more than a popcorn fart before Jonsdottir put the game in the refrigerator, closed the door, turned off the lights, for the eggs to cool, the butter to harden, and the jello to jiggle.

On to the next game at the Banque to take on Louisville. It is good to see the team coming together and playing for one another, but I hope this team finds a ball coach and sticks to it in time for when some good ol' fashion ball coaching and adjusting is going to be the deciding factor in an outcome. But for now, the squad has climbed into 7th place, and let us hope the can keep on climbing.

GOOD MORNING YOU WONDERFUL SOL ROSA FANATICS!!!

Match Hype:

Woke up early this morning and headed up the mountain top of Hype to meet with our very own YASSS QUEEN...but, I had to go the long way because it is very wet in West Hollywood right now, more than usual. There she stood in her vest, immediately turned as a approached and slapped me.

YQ: Don't be ridiculous!

S: I didn't even say anything.

YQ: I had no choice, you always ask me the same question, jump to absurd conclusions, paint outlandish pictures of the results, you start to diaperventilate, so I have to slap you and bring you back to reality. But today I don't have time for this, I have a game to watch before the game, then a movie to catch about greek mythology which likely excludes the Gods in mass but has the monsters, then I have to get ready for the big game tomorrow. So a preemptive slap is getting off easy, don't make me do any worse.

Volemos!!!

I hope you've all been properly hyped

Angel City win two on the bounce, this one coming on the road to their rival.

The performance was fairly solid, neither team made the other suffer to much, but Angel City got the execution they needed early.

Despite the stats leaning towards San Diego, they seemed void of ideas. xG 2.57 to our 1.95 wasn't too far off, maybe the missed penalty contributed a lot to that. Possession was about 63% to our 37%...most of that in the 2nd half with San Diego chasing the game.

Anderson did manage with a solid performance, in no large part to the post, in one key moment...at least. Our defense was even more solid, that combo of Gorden and Sams seems to be our most solid choice, hope that means there is a future Savy moving forward.

The line up didnt leave too much to desire, other than Riley on the bench, wondering if Shlomo missed something, as in is she coming back from an injury, or was she just coach Strauss's player...who knows.

But Jun Endo seemed to have gotten injured again. I can not speculate how serious it was, her gait didn't seem to painful as she walked off the field, but the replay did show that it was non contact, which doesn't usually mean better or worse compared to a contact knee injury...but them are the facts. Let's hope its not serious, or lets hope its nothing at all, fingers crossed.

What are your feelings?

Your Ol' short with our FO — Pal Shlomo here, woke up this morning...grumpy. Because he has this thing called a J...O...B that he has to do today, all while following a club that has no idea how to prioritize and/or stay organized.

But, never fear, he managed to make it up the steep climb (steeper than is necessary no thanks to the...FO) to the Mountain Top of Hype where he stumbled upon new age tropical tune and our very own YASSS QUEEN just swinging her hips side to side all on her lonesome.

SH: Uh...we have a game today.

YQ: I am aware.

SH: So are we just going to dance alone all day?

YQ: Back off man!

SH: And another thing, I thought this season's theme was television?

YQ: Isn't the WC on TV?

SH: I thought it meant episodic tele...

YQ: Shut up Shlomo! *goes back to perroa-ing sola
