Non-Revenue Roundup: Women's Hoops Get Swept, Chandler Hoffman Turning Pro, Season Kickoff Notes
With most of our fall sports already wrapped up (with men's soccer and men's water polo falling just short of a national title, women's soccer taking a very premature exit in post-season play) and UCLA's 108th national title in the books thanks to Coach Michael Sealy and the women's volleyball...
A London club in free-fall, trains without operators and the elusive 20th MLS team: It's the Hat Trick and Question of the Day!
1 Hard Times on the Thames Manchester United is a very good club. This season, they’ve tossed aside inferior opponents with a startling ease. Despite that, there’s no reason Fulham should’ve lost to them 5-nil at home yesterday. The South London club looked completely unprepared...
Bruin Bites: Embree Family Battle, Prince Will Start, and Captain Carlos Hits the Century Mark
Ahh yes, it's another Wednesday, which means another half-way point to the weekend and another chance for Rick's squad to lose to an inferior team in embarrassing fashion. Not that Rick has a monopoly on embarrassing UCLA, as Ben Howland's total clown show has gotten off to a pathetic start,...
Roundup From BN Walk: Weekend Thoughts & UCLA Football Notes
Hope everyone is having a great Memorial Day weekend. Not too shabby so far. Team USA (led by UCLA's Captain America) brushed off their loss against the Czechs with an encouraging 2-1 win over Turkey. The softball team is off to a good start in the super regional. Hopefully they can get over one...
Victory in Krakow
I didn't get to see enough of the USA/Poland match to write a full match report, but I just wanted to come on here to quickly point out how great our defense looked against a quality European team. It wasn't enough for Bocanegra and Onyewu to just shut down every one of Poland's attacks, they also...

Roundup From BN Walk: A Red, White & Blue Bruin Sunday
We will have an open thread going up late this afternoon (prolly around 2:00 pm EST) to track the US Soccer team's final match against Brazil. As we have written before the reason we are following that action closely not just because we have a lot of soccer fans here on BN but more importantly the...
Bruins Lead (& Help) Team USA In Shocking The World
You think 13-9 was big? To me in some ways this news is even a bigger deal. Carlos Bocanegra (Bruin Alum and the team captain of US Soccer team) along with two other Bruins helped the Stars and Stripes put together one of the biggest victories in the history of American soccer and perhaps one of...
BN Roundup: Updates On Osaar, DC, UCLA Soccer & Pete Carroll's Stand Against Neuheisel's Kids
