2014 Christmas List


I think this is my 3rd Timbers Christmas list. I can't find the previous two to prove that so you'll just have to trust me I guess.

This year I only have one item on my list. That by itself is good news. It means the Timbers are doing a ton of the things I want and there isn't much more I really want to add.

Just to spend a minute on what I'm grateful about: I'm grateful we have this team in this town. I'm grateful it has a personality I can believe in. Good players who are good people and enjoy playing here. I'm all in.

So what's left on my Christmas list.

TIMBERSFEST!!!!!!!

If this sounds familiar it is. I've asked for it every year. I hoped that holding the ASG would prove the point I was hoping for. i.e. that this is THE city that should have a summer soccer festival. That the city, the team, the army could help create a yearly festival celebrating soccer. Schedule a couple of games (a Timbers game, a T2 game, a women's game), on a given long weekend in late summer and surround it with some events and a beer garden (to watch the WWC?) and call it Timbersfest.
