To quote author Richard Powers and his introduction to “Galatea 2.2,”: “It was like so, but wasn’t.”  Union Omaha had the lead after 90 minutes, even after playing down a man for 35 minutes.  The three points were within grasp, victory was a mere five minutes of extra time away, and then it happened: inContinue reading “Ref Ruins Rumble with the Red Wolves”

If you only looked at the highlights and the data you’d be stunned we got anything but a drubbing from the so-called “Sad Wolves.” If you were, say, chatting with all your friends on an incredibly beautiful night at Werner Park, you’d feel like we lost a very winnable game. I think the truth isContinue reading “Data Dump: Chattanooga”

As if you didn’t have enough to celebrate this weekend, get ready to celebrate tonight’s match against Chattanooga.  Werner Park hosts the Red Wolves and kickoff is set for 8 PM (CST).  If you can’t make it to the match, tune in to watch the live broadcast on ESPN+.  It would be hard to lineContinue reading “Red Wolves Finally Come to Omaha”

So last week was a ho hum week, but not a bad week for yours truly. Ryan and Liam both took big hits last weekend, and now most of the table is getting pretty interesting as we’ve gotten through more than a third of the season. It was an even better round for Luke, whoContinue reading “USL League One Predictions: Week 13”

Last week felt like more of a routine week when compared with the previous week. Greenville may have a legitimate complaint to that comment, given that they played two of the top four teams in the league in a four day span. Toronto FC II are probably also glad that what has become their routineContinue reading “USL League One Ratings: Week 13”

I had a great night at Werner Park this week did you? Nothing like an early goal and perfect weather to make the game go down easy. Despite the relative ease of the win, some interesting things still happened, so let’s dive in. 1) Greg Hurst loves Werner Park One, who else is super happyContinue reading “Data Dump: Tucson (#1)”

Happy Match Day, Búhos fans!  In their third home match this season, Union Omaha welcomes FC Tucson into Werner Park.  This will be the first time that these two clubs face one another this season.  In 2020, Union Omaha won both matches 2-1.  While there are different faces on both rosters, we can expect veryContinue reading “FC Tucson Preview”

I’m back again with a quick article about players hitting appearance milestones as the season progresses. Over the next couple of weeks we have players hitting the 25 appearance mark in quick succession. If you need a bit of a refresher on what I’m talking about, click here to read my article from last week.Continue reading “Union Omaha Milestones Part II”

“A tie where it feels like a loss” – Jay Mims. In his Mims’ Minute (incredible name by the way, wonder who came up with that one….) said just what I was thinking. I felt Jay was dancing around the fact that the team let off the gas a bit after scoring our first goalContinue reading “Data Dump: at Richmond”

Unsurprisingly, a few matches with a line of straight zeros. But, kudos to Luke and Ryan for picking the Baby Revs to beat Madison, I obviously wasn’t that bold. But who else deserves kudos? How about Liam continuing to defy logic by lapping Luke while only having four more wins than him? I’m not officiallyContinue reading “USL League One Predictions: Week 12”
