A Pair of Games Coming Down the Road

By: Bob Kellett | Comments 7 Comments

After a pair of nil-nil draws this past weekend, the Portland Timbers will spend the week preparing for a road trip that will take them to Puerto Rico and Miami. Both locales are lovely enough to visit, but are not exactly that much fun when you have to run in 90-percent humidity for 90 […]

Two weeks ago the Portland Timbers took the first scalp in the 2008 Cascadia Cup by defeating the Seattle Sounders 2-0 at PGE Park. Saturday night they travel to Seattle for the next installment of the NW Derby. The Timbers enter the contest with a 3-0-1 record and are in first place in […]

Guest Post: Leagues of their own

By: Bob Kellett | Comments 6 Comments

David Falk is the webmaster of www.GOALSeattle.com. He has followed the Sounders and the Seattle soccer scene since 1974. He was instrumental in starting the Cascadia Cup competition and had lobbied for the NBA Sonics to change their Yellow & Green (ick!) color scheme.

Honk if you support the Timbers

By: Bob Kellett | Comments No Comments

Without much fanfare
From the club’s Tuesday press release: “The Timbers announced today the club has signed goalkeeper Steve Reese and midfielder Tom Taylor for the 2008 season, pending USSF approval. Both were members of the Timbers in 2007.”

Stand Up for the Rose City

By: Bob Kellett | Comments 2 Comments

Back in the dark, ugly days when USL Live did not exist, it was next to impossible to scout teams in the USL First Division. You could read the meager game reports provided by the teams, hope that there was coverage in the local newspapers, and read the biased thoughts of fans on message […]

Juventus Primavera Tickets on Sale Tuesday, Two Games this week

By: Bob Kellett | Comments 2 Comments

After a week off, it is game week once again for the Portland Timbers. The heroes in green and white will try to be bloody dynamite against Rochester on Thursday at PGE Park and on the road against those dreaded Seattle Sounders on Saturday. It seems hardly fair to have to go through […]

And the home of the…..TIMBERS

By: Bob Kellett | Comments 5 Comments

The workweek closes with the Friday Tribits from which we learn that the Timbers players are following the NBA playoffs. Yep, it has been a slow news week. We also get confirmation that the club has scheduled a friendly with an Italian club on June 14. Loyal readers of this little ol’ […]

Cup-tied Burse, Larry the Cat, Arsene’s Girlfriends

Racking up the frequent flyer miles
The Timbers might have the weekend off, but that doesn’t mean that their keeper will be free to stay home and watch the third season of Arrested Development on DVD. Ray Burse will join FC Dallas in San Jose this weekend and be available for the game against the […]

Timbers Grab Bag 04.30.08

By: Bob Kellett | Comments 1 Comment

I dig Anne Ramzy’s weekly USL-1 column on Soccernet, especially when she leads with a Timbers bit like she has the past couple of weeks. I never was concerned with the speed of Chris Brown or Takayuki Suzuki, but I guess someone out there might have been. Suzuki has deceptive quickness and as […]
