Chicken Prediction: Dallas

Posted on May 13, 2023May 13, 2023 by Louis de Ludovico

Gentle reader, when is a not win a win? When the win wins over the fans like a wind through a window. Yes, my hens foresaw a victory, which, by the score, wasn’t correct, but, by the feeling afterwards, was. Phil West was just wrong: The architecture can be marvelous. I.M. Pei’s city hall is…

May 10, 2023.  What a glorious day for Austin, and therefore the world! Not only did Austin FC win for the first time in almost two months, but RODNEY FREAKING REDES SCORED!  Q2 Stadium may have only been about 80% full for the US Open Cup match against New Mexico United on Wednesday, but at…

Chicken Prediction: Etruscan Style

Posted on May 6, 2023May 6, 2023 by Louis de Ludovico

Gentle reader, El FC did not, in fact, win. My beloved hens and I were fighting the over-emotionality of others and predicted a win. Our optimism was wrong. We apologize for missing the score, but not the sentiment. If there is any positive to take from this match, it’s that Phil also missed his prediction….

MLS Cheering Guide – Match Day 11

Posted on May 5, 2023May 5, 2023 by Uncle Tony P.

Goals!  Austin FC scored goals in a real, live match last week!  Sure, it was another home draw ya Debby Downer, but the scoreless drought is over!  You know what? Hey, things could be worse.  We could be Sporting Kansas City. Speaking of SKC…. MLS Sickos Game of the WeekSeattle Sounders vs Sporting Kansas City…
