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…
A cool, windy 4pm start to the Badger’s Sunday saw a sizable contingent of players and family members descend upon Onion Creek for the match. The tent was replaced by picnic blankets. Danny and Jake showed up for their first action of the season, and Cameron Road had a nice group of 4 subs available…
Been awhile since we checked in on America’s zaniest couple, but this week’s episode was full of drama as Brian S’s family was stranded at Onion Creek with a flat tire. Brian P to the rescue with a timely post-game ride home. You can always count on a Brian.
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…
Cameron Road United closed out this epic Summer Season with a thrilling 4-1 victory over Travis FC on a 107 degree noon day at Onion Creek to finish off with a winning record…. a not-so-easy feat for summer ball. Since Chappy was high up a mountain in Santa Fe, all reports and findings in this…
This week’s Sunday morning brought a trip to the beautiful, plush, well groomed fields of NEMP for an 8am showdown with CC United and their new strange, orange camo kits. Cameron Road welcomed back Jeff Z for his first summer action, were thankful that Jefe survived several golf course related incidents Friday morning, and even…
Piecing together this week’s match report as Chappy was out of town for his annual Bald Dome of Power polishing at an old machine shop in West Virginia. The word across the wire was that Austin Blues had quite a large roster to choose from, while Cameron Road struggled this week with a bare bones…
Cameron Road finally got a break with an 8am game, but it was still hot as the humid dew filled the air like the delicious smells of a fresh batch of Luke’s Grandmother’s biscuits. With Ciro and Derek both out of town, the team’s average height shot up 3 inches, leaving Scotty as the lone…
8 subs! 4 tents! Mist! A generator! Badgertown was humming Sunday at noon for the big showdown with bar rivals Chopped Liverpool. They had no Johnny Football, and were pretty much doomed to be toothless in front of goal while the Badgers were prepared to come at them in waves. Early on, the Badgers started…
Another nooner in full effect this week as the Honey Badgers faced Austin Athletic Club. Cameron Road welcomed back Guillermo with open arms after week’s on the shelf with a foot injury. Look out for those tiny turf divots you 40 year old! The Badgers also gained the defensive services of Nick L, picking up…
Summer soccer at noon. A rite of passage. Can you survive? Can you outlast the other team? Will you pass out from a heat stroke and have to be revived by a cooler full of gooch water to the dome? Honey Badgers don’t give a shit. Good squad for yesterday’s match with 4-5 subs, which…
The league gave the Badgers the honey pot spot with an 8am game on Father’s Day. It was cool, cloudy and not yet into triple digits. Jefe was out, but he made sure to give the precious Real Ale cooler to newcomer Matt (did you happen to hear Cameron Road has a sponsorship with Real…
First game of the 2023 Summer Season. The Onion Creek grass was lush. The tent was wobbly. There were plenty of new faces in the mix, and Jefe rolled 7 bones. Jefe had been hard at work recruiting some extra Badgers-in-Training to make sure the core squad didn’t die of a Texas heat stroke in…
Lofty FC fought well, but they were no match for the staying power of the Honey Badgers on the last day of the season. A victory after a victory! There were Sour Patch kids (a far superior candy to anything made by the Jolly Rancher clan), kolaches, icings of Ciro (of course), golf balls hit,…
It’s been far too long since we’ve heard the sultry voice of our clean-living Scotsman. But he’s back with an end-of-year assessment!
In perhaps his best performance of the season, Chappy put his money where his mouth was and grabbed Danny’s 50 yard wedge shot out of the air on the first try. Might be a third act as a circus performer in his future.
We got an MVP winner, a Spiritual Leader, a Normal Human, and the Golden Boot winner all celebrating together.
With real ice. Look at his face. He loves it.
After narrowly missing out on the final game of last year, Danimal joined the “normal humans” after receiving his Golden Pineapple for a red card-less season! He also probably set the record for defensive goals in a season finishing on a hot-streak of 4 in a row.
It was a tight race, but Derek edged out Jesus on assists to add to his silverware.
With a brilliant, consistent season in midfield, Schwarzy takes home the MVP for a great season!
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…
