Portland Timbers Blog Joins SB Nation
The "year of soccer" may be coming to a close here at SB Nation, but our community continues to grow.
Please welcome Stumptown Footy to the network. The blog is run by Geoff Gibson, who has made the step up from his Chopping Timber blog.
I've heard a lot of United fans ponder adopting the Timbers as their second club. There's a lot of reasons to do so: their jerseys are cool, they've got Rodney Wallace and Troy Perkins, and they hate the Sounders. I'm not going to go that far, but it's nice to see Portland represented on SB Nation.
This makes 12 blogs out of 18 MLS teams. And more to come.

They've won me over with some slick marketing
This spot is pretty damn awesome (love the creepy kid with the axe). And this is a better spot than I’ve seen from any MLS team, and they did it while they were in the USL. Any team that pulls off tifo like this is alright in my book. And Timber Jim is a true mascot legend.
Plus the hating the Sounders thing.

It’s great to see a Portland blog, but “Stumptown” just makes me think of a city populated entirely by amputees.
