3 Questions: Tormenta (Home)
A lot of optimism and a little wistful is how I’d describe myself going into the second to last home game of the season. Sure a longer season would be great because we’d have a better shot of making the playoffs, but I’d take more games just to watch this team continue to reach itsContinue reading “3 Questions: Tormenta (Home)”
Data Dump (Ft Lauderdale Away)
Hey-oooooooooo! We won! Not only did we beat FtLCF but we beat the ref. I still can’t get over how bad the missed call was on their first goal. My favorite part is that all three FtLCF players start walking away since they saw the handball as well. Ok, #refrant completed let’s dive in! 1)Continue reading “Data Dump (Ft Lauderdale Away)”

Data Dump: Revs II (Home)
It’s Wednesday morning and half the nights since the game I’ve had dreams about UO being unable to get a goal while down 1-0. I view this level of personal emotional investment as a good sign and hope that we all are feeling as strongly as ever that simply having the opportunity to be furiousContinue reading “Data Dump: Revs II (Home)”
Owls struggle to find the back of the net against Revs II
Coming off of their first loss of the season against Chattanooga, Union Omaha looked to bounce back against bottom of the table New England Revolution II. This would not be the case as the Owls came up short in a 2-0 defeat for their second consecutive loss. The Owls have scored only one point inContinue reading “Owls struggle to find the back of the net against Revs II”
