World Cup Training site news: Australia will train in the Bay Area at the Oakland Roots/Soul Training Facility.

It was like getting together with some old friends and reminiscing on the good times we had together. Thanks for the thoughtful and thought provoking conversation!

Nice write-up of the #Quakes74 roster heading into the 2026 season. Those 1 or 2 players Bruce Arena says the team is pursuing are vital to this team taking the next step toward a playoff position in the West. I, too, predict a big season from Preston Judd.

Happy to subscribe. You should too!

New secondary jersey for the #Quake74 this season: The Grateful Dead Kit. Thoughts?

Quakes74 preseason news: All three of the #Quakes74 2026 Coachella Valley Invitational (CVI) matches will air on KTVU Plus (KICU-TV), including today's match against Charlotte FC at noon. The games will also be broadcast via live stream at www.sjearthquakes.com/livestream.

Heavy news for #Quakes74 this morning, as the club announces the passing of head sporting strategist Vassili Cremanzidis. He was just 36. “There are no words to adequately express the depth of our grief,” the Quakes said in a statement.

San Jose Earthquakes stadium has been chosen as one of six sites to host early round games of the LA 2028 Olympics soccer tournaments. The final stages will be held at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena.

A cashfer for Chucky Lozano would be a move by the #Quakes74 that I'd endorse.

My first impression from Timo Werner's introductory press conference is Bruce Arena and the #Quakes74 have hit a golazo with this signing. Timo, both as a person and a player, fits exactly what San Jose needs at this stage: experience, winning attitude, strong personal perspective.

By signing Timo Werner, the #Quakes74 and Bruce Arena are following through on their intent to change the mentality at the club, but it will mean little unless the team ascends in its results. Bay Area fans, for the most part, expect their teams to be winners.

Chicho returns to San Jose!

Preston Judd is going to win the Golden Boot

I am absolutely over the moon to welcome @mlsist.bsky.social, @jeffrueter.bsky.social, and @ellabrockway.bsky.social to the Guardian. www.theguardian.com/guardian-us-...

To think that the #Quakes74 lost the guy at the top of this graphic due to a clerical error...

This is the kind of gamble you make with a DP contract, best German signing since Florian Jungwirth. #Quakes74

Utter malpractice by the #Quakes74 to lose Cristian Espinoza.

Two phrase that somehow go together when discussing the Quakes.

Given that San Jose is only 280 miles from the most southern peak of the Cascades, perhaps the #Quakes74 will be invited to join the Cascadia Cup competition when MLS realigns in 2027!

The headline made me snicker, but, yeah, the Bay Area won't be hosting any of the big teams this time around. Let's see how dynamic pricing works for this slate of games. www.sfgate.com/sports/artic...

Receiving the FIFA Peace Prize?

Still feel honored that Henry Taube was on my dissertation committee. Amazing scientist and person; I couldn't have been more fortunate.

Bravo! 👏

San Jose Earthquakes 2025 MLS regular season schedule has been released. Two home games to the start the season, then a first road game at the Philadelphia Union. Sweater weather for all three! #Quakes74

Get at it, fellow Californians!

They should approve home playoff games next

Very insightful from Jeff, the shot to the @wesburdine.bsky.social chaser linked within.

Congratulations to #Quakes74 legend Chris Wondolowski.

Jamon delivers again! One of my favorite weekly features, the Friday Stat Dump, even when it arrives on Saturday. 😉

It's Preston Judd's time to shine.

Haha! This is amazing 😆

Just finished an abbreviated end of season press conference with Bruce Arena. After almost a year with the #Quakes74, and seeing how MLS is evolving in recent seasons, he had this assessment of the organization: "We have to overachieve here to be successful."

Please take a moment and fill out the survey. Thank you!

It's sad that The Town FC just last night hosted the first home playoff match at PayPal Park since the stadium's opening ten years (11 seasons) ago.

Fun Fact: Go back in time another 5 years, and San Jose still sits at 0 MLS playoff games hosted.

Bruce Arena talked up the team’s progress, but also said there “at least 6 games” where they dropped points that they shouldn’t have. Said they weren’t consistent enough. He also had this gem. “The salary cap is always challenging…I’m going to call into Inter Miami and see how they do it.” #Quakes74

We're all St. Louis City fans.

#Quakes74 with an almost full strength roster for tonight's Decision Day game against Austin FC. Regular starting goalkeeper Daniel a late scratch due to injury, so Earl Edwards Jr. gets the nod.

This is the 5th time in team history that D.C. United have finished at the foot of the overall league table, putting them back into a tie with San Jose for most all-time. If you need a tiebreaker, the Quakes have done it in 2 fewer seasons.

Something to keep on eye on: If the RSL @ St. Louis game kicks off later than scheduled, then we might be waiting to learn about the #Quakes74 playoffs qualification fate -- assuming they win tonight against Austin FC!

The San Jose Earthquakes still have everything to play for this Saturday against Austin FC, but the season postmortems are starting to be discussed. After training today, head coach Bruce Arena was asked about how the culture of the club has changed since he took over ahead of the 2025 MLS season.

Wrote something a little different during the break that I hope MLS PR considers, as national outlets keep decreasing coverage and now AI content is replacing writers. Someone had to say something before media access just gets worse. (Free post) www.patreon.com/posts/141166...

Also, there's a giveaway planned for the season finale -- an action figure of #Quakes74 captain Cristian Espinoza! Available to the first 5,000 fans in attendance. #LaMaquina

Was out at the San Jose Earthquakes training facility for today's press availability. It's now double in size (the new half is in the foreground), though the team is still waiting for the use permit to be issued in order to play on the new part. A small, but necessary, improvement.

If you didn't see Tsakiris' free kick live, Telemundo Deportes has you covered. #USMNT #U20WC www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1rl...

Niko Tsakiris, absolute filth to make it 2-0 to the #USMNT U-20s against Italy. Ten minutes from the Quarterfinals. #U20WC

Niko Tsakiris my gawd man

Gonna rage if Tsakiris doesn't get 2000+ MLS minutes next year. Be it in San Jose or elsewhere.
