San Jose have added Scott Sealy, Francisco Lima and Darren Huckerby in the past week.

Honestly...I think these guys are better than we are now.

oh come on. Give me a break.
Sealy is really not that good at all.
Who the hell is Francisco Lima anyways?
Huckerby is still not match fit

You also have no clue whether these guys will gell together. You'll have to wait atleast 2 months before making a statement like that

I'd rather it be Cunningham, that we he gets suspended and can't step on the pitch until he's waived :)

Neither Huckerby nor Lima are starting, and likely will not come on off the bench either. Dont worry. The Quakes are us from last year. A bad team with an injured Ronnie O'Brien.

Former key Roma player...and will most likely be the second best left back in this league behind Jonathan Bornstein.

..."you scored the greatest goal ever according to the internet....please confirm or deny..."

Classic....

Oh boy...i dunno, I hope the cali girls and sunshine are enough for Hucks to be putting up with that stupidity.

LOL, local news in the US is brutal!

LOL that interview was hilarious! Not in a bad way either. I really thought it was funny. Funniest part was when he tells the writer who wrote "North Port" to start packing.

I was surprised to see Huckerby out there starting today.
I thought he was OK at some points (speedy).. almost got behind Marvell Wynne at one point.. But he was invisible in the second half.
Lima didn't offer much in his first game.

btw, Ronnie o'brien was shitty today.

i wouldn't exactly say that huckerby is a "legend".

If that was the best Huckerby has to offer, I am glad he is not with TFC. This worries me a little, because Carver was so hot for this guy. I think Andy Welsh looked better in his first mls game. Lima was a good player in Serie A, so that is not bad, probably on the same par as Robinson.

I doubt it, it was his first game, and he's just off the plane nursing a bum hip, so to speak.

Hucks has practiced twice in the past month and once with his teammates (from what I read today).

So given that, I hardly think today's performance is something to judge upon.

That interview was one of the worst ever. Even Bobbo McClown could do better, and he hates soccer.

Smenge

Huckerby looked gassed in the first ten minutes. He should have made more of an impact given all the hype that has surrounded his arrival in mls.

Dirk Diggler

Cut him some slack guys. No player on this planet would be on his best form right after such a long off-season. Seriously, how many players do you know in any sport who light up the competition in the first pre-season game of the season? Because that is what it was for him.

With that said, Fuckerby is still a bastard.

How many flops did Hucks do in the first half? I counted 3.

Must have been the turf.

Smenge

Who made more of an impact on his first game or two? Robert, Ricketts, Welsh, Dichio, or Huckerby??? Each of these players had an assortment of ailments, and/or extended layoff from soccer. He is a pro athlete, if he was out of shape, or otherwise incapable of playing, he should have stayed on the beach drinking a latte. If you put on the kit and the boots, you should be able to play, or stay the f...k home....I just don't think he is nearly as good as Carver would have us believe.

Those weren't dives, he was trying to get 'grass' stains on his kit to remind him of home.

He was testing the carpet for soft spots.
