And that word is: Punchless.
Or it could be seven words: This team is nothing without Landon Donovan.
So let's start with the positive: shutting out Houston at home in front of a sell-out crowd and
forcing Pat Onstad to actually make some saves. Once again Donovan
Ricketts proves his worth making a busload of saves and the backline bends but doesn't
break.

How about Cam Weaver? The coach in San Jose didn't like him and traded him. Then he goes and
has a great start in Houston! Lesson learned, always believe in yourself and don't let one
coach's bad opinion affect your confidence!
Did you think the Fire's penalty kick call against them was legit?

San Jose Earthquakes are wrapping up the signing of 6-foot-4 forward Cam Weaver from FK
