schiri Posted July 15, 2013 Report Posted July 15, 2013 http://www.portlandtimbers.com/ What a finish! I swear, I thought Arena was going to punch Porter right in the face after FT! Damn i only caught the highlights. What was the source of Arena's angst after the final whistle? Is Caleb upsetting Brucey's little cloistered world and getting too much attention?? Quote
Ando Posted July 15, 2013 Report Posted July 15, 2013 It was a hard-fought game, and I think he was more upset with the fact that Portland managed to steal 3 points at the end than he was at Porter specifically. They're both, shall we say, strong advocates of their own cause, and the fact that CP constantly acted as if his team was being victimized by officiating probably understandably grated Bruce a little bit Bruce has kinda made no bones admitting he isn't CP's biggest fan, though Quote

Z.I.P. Posted July 15, 2013 Report Posted July 15, 2013 Mark this match (7/13/2013) as the beginning of a very contentious rivalry. Love it! I will be watching the replay on Time Warner Cable SportsNet, the galaxy's network tonight (was at BB summer league game on Saturday nite). All I can say is, it sure is time the galaxy got a rival. Zemansky should relish what it means to have them as a rival, after his years with Chivas. Quote

Z.I.P. Posted July 24, 2013 Report Posted July 24, 2013 Must have been some game -- six yellow cards? Wonder if there's a Cascadia Cup for PDL. Quote
Zip_ME87 Posted August 24, 2013 Report Posted August 24, 2013 This is a good listen. Some great Akron stuff 16 minutes or so into it. http://www.portlandtimbers.com/news/2013/0...ch-caleb-porter Quote

fknbuflobo Posted August 28, 2013 Report Posted August 28, 2013 Visualize those fifteen minutes in the Timbers locker room between Full Time and the press conference. You can bet it was not pretty. Were he still Zips HC, I can only imagine how Porter's “winning mentality" would have looked after that underachieving (exhibition) showing at SLU. I really miss that S.O.B.! Quote
fknbuflobo Posted October 14, 2013 Report Posted October 14, 2013 Forgive me if this has already been posted. Article highlights the relationship between DN and CP. It was mentioned during broadcast of last night's Timbers/Sounders clash. http://www.oregonlive.com/timbers/index.ss...be_profile.html Quote
yazan07 Posted October 20, 2013 Author Report Posted October 20, 2013 Porter's boys clinched a playoff spot today, first time Timbers have done so in MLS. They're also in second place for the supporters shield right now. If they win/tie next week (Chivas away) and Sporting KC ties/loses (Philadelphia away) then Timbers will win the shield, I think. Beating Chivas is definitely doable, but they'll need a little help from the Union. Would be an incredible story for Porter and his revamped Timbers side. Edit: nvm, just realized NY hasn't played this week and they currently sit just one point behind Portland. Still possible though Quote

An in-depth look into the life of Porter http://www.nbcsports.com/soccer/mls/caleb-porter-destroyer Thanks Yaz. I learned how CP got his desire for new challenges after hearing his mom Mindy tell about taking over as principal of a Navajo middle school in Sanders, Arizona. I don't think there's a ceiling on Caleb's career. He'll succeed at whatever he wants to. Go Timbers! Quote

yazan07 Posted November 7, 2013 Author Report Posted November 7, 2013 It is no secret that CP wants to take over for Jurgen Klinnsman when the time comes. How awesome would that be for us Akron fans who really watched him take off? I would love to say I was there watching the future national team coach when he was just getting his start. Quote

What a night for Portland soccer last night as Caleb's Timbers made it to the MLS Conference Finals with the 5-3 cumulative victory over the Sounders downtown at Jeldwen Field on NBC, while the Portland Pilots women defeated Santa Clara uptown at Merlo Field to win the WCC (co-champs) on ESPNU. Wish I were back in PDX! Quote

fknbuflobo Posted November 14, 2013 Report Posted November 14, 2013 I cannot imagine how Timbers can overcome a 2 goal aggregate deficit. http://espnfc.com/blog/_/name/soccerusa/id/3661?cc=5901 Quote

fknbuflobo Posted November 14, 2013 Report Posted November 14, 2013 Ummmm...score two goals? I believe that we shall win. But Real Salt Lake are better. They hold the ball, defend, and attack better. I will clearly root for Timbers, but I dunno. Quote
