An Adam’s Arms Story…. After receiving Zeke’s latest email, the subject and quality of his content brought me great sadness. I yearned both for soccer and for match reports of said soccer from the #1 AMSA Over 30A Team Website in the Universe. And with that I bring you… 5:45 AM – Zeke receives…
Somewhere out there in the flux of time and space, there’s a parallel universe that is exactly like ours – except for two very key differences. The first is that there is no Corona Virus. The second is that instead of a hot plate to cook his nightly tomato soup, Ryan Willis has a Stainless…
Let’s get one thing straight, this was a glorious day for Cameron Road United. The victorious weekend on the pitch all started with a birthday celebration for Jefe on Friday, as McKenna showed true Badger hospitality at The Grove in the form of tequila shots, wine (both kinds….red and white) and classic Italian entrées. Unfortunately, he…
Cameron Road took another one on the chin today on the first day of March as they fell to ATX United 4-0. But that didn’t tell the whole story as the scoreline flattered ATX. For most of the 90 minutes the game was a closely played chess match. The Badgers knew they might be in…
There just may be a reason Galacticos are currently 22 points ahead of Cameron Road this early in the season. Could be their excellent passing and shooting. Or it could be that the Honey Badgers still haven’t awoken fully from their Premier League hangover. Whatever the case, it was a fairly miserable Sunday at ye’old Onion…
A new year, a new decade, and the Match Report is back baby! And what a way to start of 2020 as Cameron Road United unleash their counter attack to perfection with a 3-1 victory against the Madrigal Dragons. Been a long time coming, yes indeed, but the Honey Badgers are off and running on…
The Soccer Gods have not been kind to Cameron Road this calendar year. A few wins and countless heartache was dished out by the tree line. Character was built up. Life lessons were learned. Patience was tested. But through it all, the Honey Badgers remained a formidable opponent, always ready to fight back when trapped in…
With injuries, out-of-towners, and “maybees” depleting the Cameron Road roster for the week, 10 brave Badgers manned Onion Creek like the Spartans at the Hot Gates. It was a media blackout, but reliable sources said Cameron Road fought well, gave the good fight, enjoyed some fantastic soccering weather, and drank a beer or seven after the game….
The Honey Badgers hoped to maintain a bit of momentum coming off the draw with the Punters, and next up on the schedule was Verity. Verity is another beer and grill loving thorn in the Honey Badgers side from years past. They are pretty big, and do a good job of moving the ball around….
The bi-annual rite of passage for Clark Field Supremacy was on display yesterday as the Honey Badgers and Punters squared off for their cathartic grudge match. Could Cameron Road bust out of their slump and get a result, fueled by Luke’s glorious motivational email and the watchful eyes of the tree line? Slim numbers and…
On the last melting hot weekend of this Texas-sized Indian summer, Cameron Road squared up against Galacticos for an early morning at Onion Creek. The mist rose like warm steam from a fresh plate of Luke’s Grandmother’s biscuits as Jefe and Jake warmed up in the pre-dawn hour. The occupancy of Badgertown was looking sparse…
Driving through the palatial and vibrant regions of downtown Manor, the Honey Badgers gathered for yearly Crown and Anchor bragging rights with Chopped Liverpool – a perennial thorn in the collective badger’s paw. The team was missing some iconic figures prior to the game, as Jefe and the tent were nowhere in sight. A sad…
If one opened up the oven – mid-bake – while a plate of Luke’s Grandmother’s biscuits were reaching their golden brown zenith, it would only be 10 degrees warmer than the searing atmosphere surrounding the Onion Creek fields yesterday at 2pm. Brutal. To combat the oppressive heat, Cameron Road unveiled a new 3 tent system, 2/3 of…
Mid September and it’s still hot as balls at Onion Creek as the Honey Badgers assembled for their noon tussle with ATX United. ATX looked pretty strong, with some vaguely familiar Premier-ish looking forwards in the mix from their apparent league-wide roster of 800 players. Cameron Road fielded a pretty strong side with 4 subs…
Why was it 100+ degrees in September? Why were there only 2 subs? Why was Andy wearing his complete uniform? Why was the pitch a lopsided, gigantic sand dune? Typical opening day questions for America’s favorite rag-tag bunch of soccer degenerates. With the Over 30 Premier nightmare behind them, the Honey Badgers looked forward to…
Are the Brians in Trouble? Brian S Again Seen Out on the Town without Brian T. Who is the Bearded Man of Mystery and Will He Breakup America’s Favorite Odd Couple???
Last game of the summer and Cameron Road are starting to get their swagger back. With two tents, six subs, Lil’Dave, many coolers of beer and a new hat for Chappy, the Honey Badgers were ready to kick it into high gear. Unfortunately, they started off in reverse, giving up a silly breakaway goal in…
You know that one game of Summer Soccer when you start to question your life choices? That mid-August 2:00 game when you don’t have enough players, it’s about 150 degrees outside, and your opponent has about 10 subs? Yeah, that was yesterday. Surprisingly, the Honey Badgers overcame most of these obstacles and fought hard against…
5:55 am – Jefe text Chappy to tell him that it’s raining Dragon Tears. 5:58 am – Ryan takes first shit of morning. 6:48 am – Jefe arrives at fields. 7:06 am – Ryan takes second shit of morning 7:10 am – Chappy captures rainbow on drive showing exact location of Zeke’s Honey Pot like…
The Honey Badgers woke up thinking, “could this be the day?” After Luke’s late-week motivational email, the champagne was re-re-re-re-iced and tucked away in the Yeti along with various post-game selections for the possible taste of victory. Messi was there minus fingerless gloves and mime makeup, Houston was there minus a dog, Jake was there…
Son of a…. Up 3-2 with 10 minutes to play sounded like it was gonna be time to pop the top on that bottle of champagne and breathe a collective sigh of relief, but since this is the year of the dead honey badger, things didn’t turn out the way Cameron Road had planned it….
