DC United mention on Deadspin

2
Over at Deadspin, there is a post about some Fire fans in attendance at Chicago's second leg, 3-0 (3-0 on aggregate) drubbing of New England. Funny pictures.

In the comments, DC United supporters got a shout-out, so I thought I'd let you know about it.

Those guys in Section 8 are crazy.

DC United v. Chivas - A Contrast

4

At the beginning of the season, I was a guest on John Dyson and Aaron Stollar's short-lived podcast a few times. On the season preview, I picked Chivas USA to go all the way this year. Admittedly, at the time I didn't realize that Guzan would be gone midway through the season, but I felt they were a good team that also knew it let itself down in last year's playoffs.

Paul Sotoudeh - Screaming Eagle

0
Thirteen years of supporting a team (DC United) and twelve years as a member of a supporters club (The Screaming Eagles) can give you a little perspective. Paul Sotoudeh has that and more as we find out, going from contributing to a club fanzine (remember those!) to organizing road trips to his current position as Screaming Eagles club president.

DC Downed by Houston, It only took 5 hours!

4
Imagine waiting at a stadium through a three hour delay to see the half hour of a soccer game.  Would you do it?  It wouldn't be for me, but that was the reality last night at RFK stadium.  Even the most faithful fans such as the Barra Brava and the Screaming Eagles deserted after a while.

TSR: Columbus responds, women win

3

The Columbus Crew released a statement, curiously not on their site, disputing the reports of a large brawl in the stands at their friendly against West Ham United. The problem, the Crew say, is that three West Ham supporters went into the Crew supporters section and caused trouble until security intervened.

AUDIO: Columbus Crew's McCuller's Blames Toronto for Crew Fan Ban, Claims Creation of DC's Barra Brava and Screaming Eagles

0
In an audio interview with a Crew blog, Columbus GM Mark McCullers claimed among other things that:

* Toronto forced the league to take action that resulted in the Columbus enforcement of a ban against throwing streamers on the pitch in Columbus.

* He and DC United's front office gave birth to the Screaming Eagles (an organization which pre-dates United) and La Barra Brava. Click to continue reading...

Barra BRA-VO!

5
If you didn't catch the opening minutes of The Nooner on ABC yesterday you missed one of the most phenomenal player tributes by the fans that I've ever seen in American sports. I'm no Ben Olsen fan (Captain Caveman has always been a thorn in the Metro side) but I do respect the amount of reverence that the DC United faithful have for him. Click to continue reading...

One Little Thing About Beckham

8

I didn't say this on the Screaming Eagles Podcast, because I wound up spending more time talking about him than I usually do on an opponent. But there was a moment in his post-game press conference that told me a lot about him. Early on, he interrupted himself to note that a tape recorder next to him on the table had stopped.

Anyone Fancy A Little Afternoon Delight This Sunday?

2
Normally I don't condone talking about a players race, religion, sexuality or wife & children. But in the cae fo the photo above, the Screaming Eagles kind of have a point. Sorry Posh, but they can hit them highs in way that you can't...they are the Mariah Carey of supporters groups.
Depending on what part of the country you are in you'll need to either skip church, wake up early or not even go to sleep to watch Sunday's 12pm EST match between DC United and LA Galaxy, a game we're calling "The Nooner" here at TOR Towers. Click to continue reading...

Photo Daily | November 15 | DC United

As much as it pains me to say it, DC United have impressive supporters' groups, in particular Barra Brava and the Screaming Eagles. Sadly for them, their fervent support didn't help them as they lost in the playoffs to the Fire once again this year. No, I couldn't resist the cheap shot, and I'm not [...] SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Photo Daily | November 15 | DC United", url: "http://pitchinvasion. Click to continue reading...

The Nest Liner

1

From 1999-2000, I ran the Nest Liner, a newsletter that combined match reports, humor and news about the Screaming Eagles. Even though I was proud of the work we did, I stopped mostly because a monthly, printed newsletter was quickly becoming an outdated form of communication in an age with a constant need for new information. Â

When I began this blog, the SEs asked me if I had any ideas for a replacement blogger.

Feed Your Wife - DC Fans on Beckham

3
Well, the Beckham circus passed through another city, another stadium's seats were filled, and another set of regular supporters made it clear how little they care about David Beckham. The DC Sports Bog caught it all on camera. Two observations on the video: one, it says a lot about this [...] Click to continue reading...
