[ohhh_yeah]

Wanted to get this up and running. I want to see more posts in this thread compared to last year's thread. Any videos or links you find please post here. I love taking photos but I also love looking at them. Bring your cameras to the match!

Here is two shots I got during the off-season:

What is that on the jerseys -- a purple Miss America sash?

[Geezaldinho]

The Purple River Plate look!

I think they had those once years ago. It might even be a 1990 commemoration thing. There have been some interesting uniforms over the years.

Here's Justi with a vertical look




And here is Frenchie with the full blown Argentina stripes look.

Man City's away kit.

It's amazing to think the likes of Vieira, Adebayor, and Bellamy have played on the new Merlo grass.

Alumni drum night

[PilotDrummer]

I got nothin' to contribute from the first game - was too busy playing drums last night!

I'll add some to this thread throughout the year, I'm sure.

Great photos thanks for sharing!

[UPFAN]

Those are great photos and thanks for sharing. It would be great to see some road game pictures as well to contrast the crowds and field. It will make you love Merlo even more!

[Geezaldinho]

They were on KGW this morning with Drew Carney.

Pretty entertaining. click on the picture.

It's great to see Kendra on Merlo with boots on! Makes me slightly more optimistic about her return.

[Geezaldinho]

She's been running for a while. no scrimmaging, though.

[UPSoccerFanatic]

Go back and take a close look at Cloee.

Nutmeg here would take a skilled player and a very small ball, especially a front-to-back nutmeg.

clearly. I was wondering if this was the epymonious answer to trivia question #1.

[fan from afar]

Oh man, now I have to go look up epymonious

Oh man, now I have to go look up epymonious

Good luck. From context, I think the word intended is eponymous. The use of "epymonious" no doubt is a trick the Geez is playing on us to pass the time between now and 7:00 pm.
