Hoping to start climbing back up the table, Cameron Road fought a hard battle early Sunday morning against a difficult Black Star ATX team but managed to come up just short at the end of the day. The final score read Cameron Road United 3, Black Star ATX 4, and as the score suggested, this…
On a balmy fall day where you could reach out and touch the tree line, Cameron Road United again found itself trying to desperately claw it’s way back from an early deficit to rescue a point – but like OU QB Sam Bradford’s mercurial throwing shoulder, we again fell on hard times.
For the second week IN A ROW, we got rained out. See you at practice on Wednesday, and at the Crown & Anchor to discuss our offering to the Soccer Rainout Gods.
Cameron Road United faced a friendly rival this past Sunday in the form of Scotty and his orange-crushed Struggle FC. A friendly but drunken wager had been made in the summer between the two teams that the loser of this game would bring a keg for the Spring match-up/post-game grilling “sesh.”
There is nothing like the smell of Onion Creek at 8 AM in the morning: Dew-kissed grass, freshly trimmed corner flags, Willis’ bucket, and the arousing scent of a tree line lingering on the edge of your every thought. This isn’t just another Sunday at the fields; this is where the Fall 2009 campaign for…
Last game of the summer season and we responded with a nice late comeback win with loads of post-game beer options. This game had it all, early goals, late goals, comebacks, fights, you name it. Since Moneyland didn’t show up last week for their game, we were a little worried that they would do the…
On a day where you could fry an egg on my forehead, Cameron Road fought hard, but ended up just short against Mike’s Hard Lemonade drinking Black Star Austin. The scoreline might not have shown it, but this was a very close game and we had plenty of chances to get some points. Black Star…
For the second week in a row, Cameron Road United put in another stellar team effort to come back from an early goal and rock Austin Blues with three unanswered goals. After a game like that, when you’re drenched in sweat and the legs are burning because you played close to 90 minutes, you just…
Sometimes playing in the summer season can be tricky – the vacation bug can strike at any time, making it challenging to field a full team – today was one of those days. If your 8-year old was watching the game on ESPN, he would have asked “Daddy, where are BT, Peterson, Dermot, Jay, Big…
Chappy here…. posting up Lukes report all the way from Mexico. See you guys soon! As team “Chap-tain” settled his gargantuanly-nude head down for a lazy week of Coronas and charro beans, Cameron Road United strapped on the supple leather boots, slid on the compression shorts, and groomed their finely-trimmed war beards for a battle against…
Dear constant reader of the most popular D2 AMSA blog in the city of Austin, after a week’s absence in the fine fine state of Mississippi, I am back to report on what was a valiant second half comeback yesterday against old nemesis Struggle FC. Although everyone could reach out an touch the win that…
Thanks to Luke for this Game Report! WIth our captain, or should I say “The Chaptain”, being out for a few weeks due to a mecca to Mississippi and Mexico, I have been honored with the task of keeping this well-oiled blog flowing with the sweat, blood and ink of our team. The proverbial torch…
In an 8 goal thrilla, Cameron Road came out on top and got the first win of the summer season. It really wasn’t as close as the scoreline showed, but it was pretty exciting stuff. First off, lets hear a round of applause for the return of Ciro to the pitch! 7 long months after…
I don’t know about you guys, but my back is flaming red. Who’s idea was it to go shirtless yesterday anyway? So yeah, the summer campaign didn’t exactly get started the way we envisioned it, even though we outnumbered Elite FC in sideline tents 3-1. We lost the game by one goal, 1-2.
[TABLE=7]
One a day where summer seemed to be on hold and the cool weather was a welcome surprise, Cameron Road bounced back from last week’s embarassing defeat to win our last game of the season against Shiner FC 3-1. We controlled the game for the first 20 minutes or so, partly because Shiner started off…
To quote The Stranger in the Big Lebowski, “sometimes you eat the bear, sometimes the bear eats you…” Looks like we got eaten by the bear yesterday. The first half was a total disaster. We went down 0-4 and were not looking very good. We couldn’t string any passes together, couldn’t create many chances, couldn’t…
The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. The Good: Our points steak continued for the 5th straight game. The Bad: Marcus went down with a possible ACL injury early in the first half. The Ugly: We let Struggle back into the game with minutes to go. It sure seemed like we were already deep into…
Cameron Road exploded for 8 goals against a severely out-aged group of teenagers from the mean streets of San Marcos yesterday afternoon. To be fair, I’m not sure why Gary Job Corps got thrown into the deep end of D2 when they should be playing at recess, but what’cha gonna do. It’s fair to say…
So who will score 4 against Gary Job Corps this weekend with the sweet sounds of “Somebody’s Watching Me” in the backround? It could be you! httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUikdnvxMUg

If it’s not freezing out on the high plaines of NEMP, then you’ve got to deal with the 40 mph winds swirling around overhead. That was the case yesterday when Cameron Road once again rose to the occasion and scored a legitimate victory against the Strikers. We may lack the scoring touch of Celtic and…
On a chilly Sunday morning, on the frozen tundra of NEMP, under the black cloud of a possible rainout, 10 man Cameron Road vaulted two spots in the D2 table with a convincing win verses old rivals Shiner FC.
Our streak of not losing continued this weekend on the high plains of Pflugerville with a convincing draw against Deportivo Fuerza Unida. Do you even remember the team that got thrashed by Celtic 0-5 a few months ago? Who were those guys?
So where were you when Cameron Road won it’s first game of 2009? If you were one of the lucky 8 players who showed up yesterday, you were at Onion Creek field playing in a rag-tag lineup celebrating a victory and a shut out. Many thanks to Bob, David, Vestre, Peterson, Jay, Willis, Andy, Marcus…
If anyone else was writing this game report it might be a little more upbeat from the start… It’s just that I don’t know whether to be happy about scoring our first goal of the season, or upset for missing a few other chances to win it at the end? Well, enough of my mental…
Here are Sean Connery and Michael Caine in their finest roles. For independent research you must seek Victory, watch several clips, and report on your findings. httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xYy5BQ3k9k httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nf8TzuRAnB8&feature=related
After giving up a pretty soft penalty kick to Celtic early on, we managed to hold Celtic to 1 scrappy goal for the entire game. We held strong and managed to hold onto the 0-2 scoreline from the end of the first half. Who knows, if the post hadn’t saved my header from a pinpoint…
Anyone up for seeing some Aztex Vs MLS (Revs, Crew, Dynamo) teams: http://austinaztex.com/AztexTickets/index_E.html — Dermot.
Submitted by your Keeper. Good evening Gents, We have had a tough couple of last games, last Sunday we lost 3-0 and where dominated in all aspects of play. In order to improve we will have to get more fit, play smarter and most importantly have fun. This weekend we are playing Celtic and in my…
