Soccer is back! After 3 long weeks of rainouts, the Soccer Gods finally smiled on Cameron Road United yesterday…. well, smiled might have been generous given how many folks were out of town, but they at least cracked a shit eating grin at the Honey Badgers. With an 8am start time on a beautiful green…
The Honey Badgers suited up with 4 subs to take on top of the table leaders, AAC on field 10 out at Onion Creek. The cool, crisp Spring morning turned into a hot, humid day by the afternoon, so the Badgers were lucky to have Jake and his giant tent… especially since Jefe and “the…
The Honey Badgers lost a close one yesterday to 2nd place Takoba. Good team, crappy restaurant. It marked the Badgers 5th straight 2-1 game, but this time they were on the wrong side of the score. For the second game in a row, the Badgers were missing two important ingredients: Jefe and the Tent. But…
After a dreadful start to the 2023/2024 campaign, the Honey Badgers have found their stride, winning 4 out of the last 5 games. This week saw them dominate rivals Chopped Liverpool on a cloudy day out at Onion Creek and win 2-1. One of the issues facing the Badgers last season was a lack of…
Walking up to the tree line around 1:40 yesterday, there were already 12, count’em, 12 Ateamo Badgers already waiting for the game to start! A positive look to game number three of the Spring Season. One of those players was a long-lost Punter-beating hero, Miguel, who made his glorious return to the Cameron Road tent…
BOOM. The 2024 Payback Tour has begun in earnest as the Honey Badgers broke off a little something something on ATX and turned around the score from the Fall Season to earn their first win of the year! It was a beautiful day at the office with sunny skies and roasting February temps. An early…
After a balmy week in the tropics, and and an upcoming summer-like week in Austin, winter was back for a few days to greet the Honey Badgers on the opening day of the season. With an 8am game and temps critical zone for Ciro’s internal engine, the Honey Badgers looked to start off the season…
One of the most trying seasons in recent memory came to a close with the Badgers finally turning around the poor form of the early weeks into a nice 4 game run. After beating up Beerca last weekend, the Honey Badgers were looking to make it two-in-two with a victory against Celtic, who sat just…
Global warming has been reversed. Trump apologizes to everyone and drops out of presidential race. Ciro doesn’t shoot ball right at keeper. On any other Sunday, one of these could have been the national headline of the day. But not yesterday. Yesterday the big news was that CAMERON ROAD UNITED WON THEIR FIRST GAME OF…
So close. So damn close. Cameron Road’s nightmare season continued yesterday as they found new ways to leave the field disappointed as Mean Eyed Cat snatched a last minute winner to break 13 Honey Badger hearts. With Thanksgiving behind them, the Badgers suited up on a chilly, windy Sunday to finally face Mean Eyed Cat…
Desperate times in Badtertown. Five losses in a row. A third of the team carrying some sort of injury. Low numbers for a game up north at NEMP. Things weren’t looking good for the Honey Badgers yesterday as they lined up to face Bat City. Cameron Road started with 10 men, and finished with 10…
Another Sunday, another frustrating loss for Cameron Road United. CRU only managed 10 players for the opening minutes, but eventually, the Badgers had 13 players to work with. It was hot though, so more would have been better. With the limited amount of players to start the game, the Badgers answered the riddle of how…
Another week, another tough loss for Cameron Road, as they fell to longtime rivals Chopped Liverpool 3-2. It was a typical, glorious Sunday morning before the sun came up, and after it did it hung in the sky with the moon to form a powerful spirit world nexus on Field #1. It was probably a…
Another day of defensive struggles for Cameron Road this week as the majority of defenders were unavailable for the game. Billy and Guillermo were the sole members of the vaunted “Wall of Badgers,” and only Billy managed to finish 90 minutes without injury. Throw in some bad luck, 2 injured subs, a crap old tent,…
Cameron Road United kicked off their 2023/2024 campaign early Sunday morning with a duel against Austin Athletic Club. The pitch was soggy with a round of Saturday rain, but the Soccer Gods decreed the fields were playable early Sunday morning. In typical 8am fashion, the Badgers took their time getting to the fields, but were…
After rescheduling 3 times, the Honey Badgers were finally able to close out the 2022/2023 season against Lofty FC. The grass was lush and green, there was a light mist in the air, the tent was standing proud (that would be the MVP vote getting tent), and Ciro was chomping down on a spicy chicken…
The Austin weather gremlin was busy at it late last week going from hail on Friday, to NEMP-like winds on Saturday, to summer-like heat on game day – which made for a tough outing at Onion Creek for the 2:00 start. Luckily the Honey Badgers came prepared with two tents, several Badger Cubs, plenty of…
It wasn’t Wrexham winning promotion level excitement, but Cameron Road roared back to life with a thrilling and complete victory against Chopped Liverpool in a battle for Crown & Anchor superiority. After two crushing defeats, it was time to right the ship. With Chappy out of town, Jefe was in charge of the precious ziplock…
Another week, another bounce of the ball that just didn’t go the Badgers way as they lost a close match to Austin Athletic Club. Things were looking positive before the game. The tent was erected. Jefe had royal blue shorts. Danny brought donuts and kolaches. Andy and his extra 9lbs graced the Badgers with his…
This season the Badgers have been hot and cold, and like Ciro’s post-game crotchal region, they were ice cold on Sunday. The good news was that Cameron Road showed up with not one, not two, but three shiny new game balls and 6 subs. Consider the pre-game won. After splashing on a copious amount of…
Just when you thought summer was here, Austin decided to throw one last cold front into the mix – sending Ciro and his delicate core temp in search of warmer climates. There were other notable missing Badgers as Gianluca decided to take Adam’s ’03 Accord on a road trip with Guillermo, and Jefe was in…
Match Day 3 and the Badgers were facing first place Travis FC. Cameron Road had a good pre-game as Jay, Jefe and Chappy showed up early to get a feel for for the exposed dirt fields which are starting to fill up the Onion Creek Soccer Complex. Also, Jefe told the tale of his new…
Game two of the young season and Cameron Road was looking for an improvement over last week’s game at NEMP. Speaking of NEMP, the trade winds from Pflugerville must have been blowing because Onion Creek was gusty. A strategic coin toss win saw the Badgers get the big winds for the second half surge, if…
Opening Day 2023! A nice and steamy February morning had the Honey Badgers up early with a trip to the wonky fields of NEMP. The mist was rising, as were the bumps on the field. A strong group gathered pretty much on-time with four subs at their disposal to face off against Hill Country United….
Last game of the Fall Season against a Classic old-school CRU opponent, the dreaded Celtic Cowboys! The Honey Badgers Haden’t faced off against the Celts in a few years, but it was nice to see the green and white hoops across the lines like days of old. With Jayone suffering a shoulder injury while dreaming…
On an actual winter morning, with frost in the air and Ciro in need of a thick, wool blanket, the Honey Badgers got back to their winning ways with a 2-1 thumping of long-time friendly rivals, Beercalona. Badgertown didn’t have a tent on this gray morning, but they did have some Badgers to welcome back…
Sunday. Noon. Still too hot and muggy for November. Ciro was in uniform, but for how long? Andy showed up, but would he have his jersey and cleats? Jefe and the tents were back, but would they turn the tide? Three-ish subs arrived, but would they be enough? So many questions. So many questions. The…
No tent. No ball. No beer. No Jefe. There were some David S Pumpkins level Halloween tricks going on yesterday at Onion Creek. Brian Parks did show up for this first action this season after recovering from successful pronoun surgery. He’s now going by “Dem Parks”. He also brought a ball, as did Ciro who…
Well, strategically, the Badgers are putting in work on their long-term plan of staying in Over 40A, and yesterday was the first step. The Badgers controlled most of the action, but just couldn’t find the back of the net enough to grab some points from their friendly rivalry with the pit masters of Beerca. Cameron…
October. A hint of fall in the air. Back to Onion Creek for a game against Lofty FC. Wait, what’s that, 3 subs in Badgertown! (well, for the first half anyway) A Nasty Nate sighting! Danimal was back. Babies, children, two tents….. things were looking positive for Cameron Road during the pre-game build up. The…
