Oh heck no. He cuts a round off the log behind the home goal any time the Timbers score. He also is a part of the crowd, revving the chainsaw. It gets LOUD.

The old guy, Timber Jim, also used to climb the spar as well as hang from the rafters with a drum.

Knight, looks like the Union are heading out here Saturday, May 7, for a 730pm game!

HALA MADRID!!!!!

I love futbol :) and as you can probably tell, the great Real Madrid is the object of my affection.

I want to get into MLS, but I haven't had the time to. That mascot is awesome

Portland Timbers fan. There's a great fan base here and our mascot runs around with a freakin chainsaw.

Timber Jim:



Oh man, I remember Timber Jim from the NASL days in the early '80s - who'd a thunk the perfect fit for soccer would be a screaming two-stroke?  Then again, I guess now they've got the moral equivalent in those damn vuvzelas...

The team I try to keep up on these days is FC St. Pauli (which should get easier when they clinched upgrade to the Bundesliga in 2010). Something about building a team with a fan base of anarchists, prostitutes, punk rockers and other denizens of the Reeperbahn just seemed too wonderfully absurd to ignore, and it's been fun following them ever since.

Tickets are booked for pdx.

If your offer to show a poor east coaster around and let me pass out on your lawn still stands I would be happy to take you up on it. I'm thinking of getting a hotel for after the game though. Something close to the stadium and with my SoB brethren.

Lemme know!

Absolutely man. You ok with a couch and a slobbery dog? She's not as pretty as your moose but she's very cuddly.

I'll PM you so we can get everything worked out.

I am more than fine with that. I'll see if I can pack some local treats for you guys too.

Ooooooh  -  TFC!!!!!!!

Toronto FC is my number one team in the MLS.

Barca in La Liga

Man City in the Premiereship

Inter in Serie A

Stuttgart in Bundesliga

Toronto FC opens this week in Vancouver and then come home to knock down the Portland Timbers on the 26th.

Just the fans and the game, that's it. 

Running time, no commercial breaks, no cheerleaders, no mascots, no music during play.  No organized fun, no waves in the crowd, just drunkenness and singing. 

It requires desire and patience, for that patience you are rewarded, your eyes must be glued to the play.  Anyone who has played knows it's damn hard to kick a ball where you want it to go, while running at full speed as well, one touch is magic.

I hope to see Barca and Real go at it in the semis of the Champions League.  And Man U and Chelsea should be good too this round.

That Timber Jim is freakin great!!! What a foto!! I'm a DC United fan and we too plan on coming to Portland for our first game there. We will be expecting some heavy razzing up in Portland!! We went to Philly and Toronto for DCU's first games and had a blast. Great time in both those cities!!! The opposing fans were great. Gave us plenty of stick but we are all civil enough to share pints as well. Expecting it to be just as great in Portland. Our home opener is tomorrow. Can't wait!! I do love Football in general and also follow La U Catolica de Chile and Man U as well. Thank God for women, beer, football and Ducati's!!

You and I would seriously get into it.

La liga-Real Madrid
Premier -Manchester United
Serie A- AC. Milan
MLS- Houston

Kinda polar opposites here, huh?

Ha ha it's all good brother, we've still got our monsters.  but if this were the football factory then that would be a different story.
