Speaking of which, make sure you get to House Park this Saturday night as we take on Tampa Bay Rowdies. The game starts at 7:30pm In both matches so far this season, both of them have been draws/ties (2-2 at Tampa and a thrilling 3-3 at House Park). So be there at the Tavern for pre-match gathering along with Chantico's Army at 5:30pm and post match gathering at Cuatros. Hopefully we can finally get a win against the Rowdies whom their record doesn't reflect on how they played this season. Also the Crocketteers (San Antonio Soccer Supporters Group) will be making their IH-35 trip to House Park(on a Lion and Rose Double Decker Bus) to see the match. So we need every support we can get to support our beloved Austin Aztex to maintain our top of the USSF D2 table status.
Don't forget this evening (Monday) there will be open lines from 7:30 - 8:00 p.m. CDT for the new Austin Aztex and Chanticos Army podcast show called In the Mixer. Call in on Skype (mgrayscale) with thoughts on the Austin Aztex win over Miami FC and well as USSF D2 teams' news and league game results.
Also Futbol en Vivo will be on tomorrow afternoon from 1pm to 2pm with the first half hour in Spanish and the second half hour in English. You can catch the show on KOOP 91.7 FM, community radio for Austin, Texas.

Alex Nimo has found a brilliant way to kill any time wasting tactics from his opponent. Well, at least he tried to that is. LOL! Thanks to Matthew Gray & his wife for finding this.
Thanks to Austin photographer Patrick Meredith for this bad ass picture of Jamie Watson staring at Tampa Bay's Pascal Millien. So what do you think Jamie said to him? :-)

The Aztex played to a 2-2 draw against the Rowdies at their "evil Yankee Owner's" baseball field on May 8. ;-) Here are the highlights of the Tampa Bay Rowdies vs Austin Aztex match:
Now was this a penalty or not? You make the call. But I think all of us can agree that the referee was poor in this match.
