Our boy Nick rocked the new BP Crest t-shirt on Fox Football Fone-In tonight. Good lookin out Nick…we definitely appreciate it!

I didn’t get back from the UCSB game at Cal Poly until 2.30am, so it was off to nap before hitting LAX at 5.30am for my Delta flight to the SLC.

Got a sweet little First Class surprise (I’ve only flown up with the Riches three times) when I got there, so the flight was just that much more comfortable.   Max and I headed over to the Radisson for our 10am production meeting.

Big 6 point Western Conference swing tonight for the winner of FC Dallas at Real Salt Lake on FSC.  And some damn good sub-plots going on as well.

Rogo and I headed north this afternoon for tonight’s UCSB at Cal Poly match.

Made a stop in Santa Barbara for some grub at Rogo’s old stomping grounds, Longboard’s Grill.

Made it with time to spare.

My perch during last night’s Toronto FC at FC Dallas match.

Mike, monitor, lineups and notes.

A little Cheesecake Factory after the game, an early flight back to LAX and hitching a ride to long term parking.

Only one thing gets me through the travel day.

That and posting up to grab a little grub…..

Pretty massive game for both sides Saturday on FSC.

This is what delirious looks like.  Rogo and I had a 4am call time for yesterday’s North Korea v South Korea World Cup Qualifier that was played in Shanghai because of North Korea’s refusal to allow the South Korean flag into the stadium and their refusal to play the South Korea National Anthem.  FIFA had to step in and relocate the game.

After the game Rogo and I headed down to the Home Depot Center and the LA Galaxy practice where Rogo got put through his paces by my former New England Revolution teammate and current Galaxy goalie coach Ian Feuer.

Then it was a little interview with the LA keepers and Josh Wicks for Fox Sports Net West.

For a day Rogo got to re-live his D1 San Diego State days back in the 90’s.

Then it was back to the FSC studios for the Australia at Uzbekistan World Cup Qualifier at 2.30pm.
