San Diego Sports
Today is the day before the day that the Padres take the field in what is possibly the most anticipated season in over a decade. They’ll be taking that field at the place they’ve called home since 2004, PETCO Park. Of course prior to that the Padres played their Baseball in a cavernous cement tomb […]
On a summer’s evening in 1992, photographer Charles “Charley” Starr, on assignment for the San Diego Union-Tribune, drove to an empty lot in the hills above Jack Murphy Stadium, hoping to get a twilight shot of MLB’s annual All-Star game being played there. The picture he took on July 14, 1992, is now considered one […]
I’m not exactly sure how I should start this post, but I don’t think that’s ever stopped Nick Canepa from writing, so I’ll continue. In fact, if I were to think like Nick Canepa I’d obviously start with something about the Chargers, then move backward hopefully touching on the topic the article is about. Then […]

They talk about the similarities and differences in the SoccerCitySD and SDSU West’s plans for the San Diego River and whether either have a chance of actually happening. Then they talk about growth in the […]
This week the guys sit down with Paul Reindl for The Ben and Woods Show 6-9am on the Mighty 1090. They talk about what it was like transitioning from the Dan Sileo Show to Ben and Woods, the early season struggles of the Pads, and what it will be like programming a local sports show […]
The last weekend of March was host to the first ever El Trafico, the nascent name for contests between the Los Angeles Galaxy and Major League Soccer newbies LAFC as each fights for supremacy in the City of Angels. Despite the expansion team starting the season with two successive road victories (a new MLS record) […]
The day after the Padres Opening Day 2008 I published the first post on thekeptfaith.blogspot.com. No, I wasn’t in my mom’s basement. I was 27 years old and was using my future wife’s better computer at her apartment in University Heights. Once posted, I sent the link to the new blog to about thirty people […]
