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…
Sunday brought the bi-annual pilgrimage to the high plains of NEMP. Jefe was (of course) first to the field to set up Badgertown and greet the players. The patchwork pitch was actually looking slightly less than terrible, with strange patches of St. Augustine sprouting up inside the 18 yard boxes, and rolling hills of semi-green…
The Match Report according to Jefe: They scored on us on a break away five minuted into the game. Jeff Z intercepted the ball but it went right to their guy, Todd. Of course his name is Todd…. he’s cool though. He was on the wrong side of me and it was a race to…
The musty jersey that has been sitting in the trunk of your car for a month. The search for the 2nd red sock. The shameful pre-game trek to the port-o-potty. The stickers covering the ball in pre-game warmup. Ahh, the sights and smells for Opening Day at Onion Creek. The Honey Badgers suited up for…
Last night, the Badgers picked up their trophy for the Over 40B title to add to their cabinet of curiosities. There was a Gigi appearance, ceviche in margarita mugs, a Punter trophy sighting, some actual decent t-shirts from the league, and a spry Peterson doing cartwheels post back surgery. It was a good night!
Big thanks to Beerca for providing the post-game grill out infrastructure for an epic end-of-season celebration! Those boys do it up right. For some the post-game lasted approximately 7 hours. Such a fitting end to a fantastic summer season. Couldn’t have done it without all the Punters, Jesus and Mark, a Verity and Guillermo N…
Finally, the end of the long, grueling, hot, summer season was at hand. In more of a friendly with the good folks from Beercalona, Cameron Road packed the 3 tents of Badgertown with a full squad of 20 players ready to battle it out on the pitch and then party down until sunset. It was…
Looking for an opportunity to bounce back from last week’s meltdown, the Honey Badgers gathered under Nick’s lone tent to prepare to battle the day glow clad gentleman from Austin Power Outage, who were decked out in bring pink tops. With Jefe successfully penetrating the inner sanctum of the Q2 Stadium the night before and…
The Honey Badgers were in for a fight today with some Hooligans. They were younger, faster, younger, and scoring goals for fun this summer as they rolled through the league with an undefeated record. Cool I guess if you’re into that kind of stuff, but did they have a tent with mist? Exactly. Boooooring. With…
Chappy was in Mexico so the Match Report is all heresy and conjecture. But word on the street was that it was a good game, albeit hot as balls at noon. Mark T scored a hat trick with assists from Adam G and his proud Papa, and Jefe shielded the keeper from his final free…
Another beautiful 8am game at the Clark Field Stadium. Green grass, musical vibes, Ciro had Starbucks and Jefe had a pre-game Twisted Tea. All was good…. except there wasn’t a keeper in sight with Jaybone reenacting the 1985 smash hit Easy Lover by Phil Collins and Philip Bailey in his living room. “Billy, you want…
“A wiser fella once said, sometimes you eat the bar, and sometimes, well, the bar eats you.” And sometimes the bar is the sponsor for two teams in an epic shootout at Onion Creek on a muggy Sunday morning. The Badgers and Friends squared off against an ancient foe yesterday as they faced Chopped Liverpool….
The good folks at league headquarters pulled the old switcharoo on the Badgers for their 8am game on Sunday. Instead of playing Cell United, the hapless team from Tesla, Cameron Road faced and Over 40 Premier team, Mean-Eyed Cat. Looks like they got bumped down to our division, while Cell United moved on to greener…
For the 2022 Summer Campaign, the Cameron Road United Board put together a Frankenstein-like squad filled with Clark Field All Stars and fellow Over 40 members to battle the heat and young legs they might face. With game one scrapped, this was the Honey Badgers first test, and they drew the short straw of time…
25 goals. 10 assists. Constant hustle. This was one of the most incredible offensive season’s in Cameron Road history! We have run out of words for what Gianluca did this year. So many important goals and leading the team in assists as well. Bravo Gigi, Bravo!!
So many story lines as the Honey Badgers capped off their championship season with a 3-1 victory over Balcones Fault FC. With the Jugglers losing prior to kickoff, the Badgers ended the season with a dominating 8 point margin at the top of the Over 40B table. Champions baby, champions. With the season wrapped up,…
Needing one point in the final two games to claim the Over 40B title, a short-handed CRU took the pitch against the dreaded Jugglers with dreams of another title on their minds. It was another week of “next man up” as half the squad was either injured, out of town, battling COVID, or raising a…
This was gonna be a tough one. The Honey Badgers were in desperate need of 11 players not injured, out of town, or missing in action. Luckily, no small thanks to Chris Peterson’s social media blitz, 11 players showed up and took the pitch to face the Old Boys on a beautiful Sunday morning. The…
In a rematch of the season’s opening day loss, Cameron Road wanted revenge on Travis FC on a boiling hot Sunday afternoon. Way too hot for April, but so goes Texas. The Honey Badgers had a lone sub on the sidelines and Travis FC showed up with none. The Badgers are on a roll with…
Gigi remained unstoppable. A new Bald Dome of Power took center stage. Andy had white socks.
On a glorious, sunny day, Cameron Road set up shop on field three to protect their lead at the top of the table. With the Jugglers tying before them, the Honey Badgers could build up a bit of a f-up barrier with a win against Balcones Fault and their boring green uniforms. The troops were…
It was sweet sweet revenge for Cameron Road today as they leapfrogged The Jugglers to go back into first place on Jefe’s birthday. Jefe was there in spirit, as his physical body had been consuming mushrooms and margaritas since 6am as he received a day off to extend the celebrations. #sakibomb It was a (shocker)…
