It’s the first week of spring, but here in Chicago it’s been below freezing temps and there have been snow flurries on & off all week.
Here’s a shot I took of some DePaul students kicking the ball around on Wish Field from the CTA Fullerton station.
The sun is shining down on us, but if someone has the ability to send us some warm weather vibes, I’d really be into that.
Footy love, nikhak

One more week until another rad women’s soccer league starts in Chicago via Kick It Social!
Two teams need a few more independent girls to join their teams for $60/player or sign up your own team for $350 (HELLA CHEAP!).
If you live in Chicago and know anyone that might be interested in joining a women’s soccer league, please share this with them or reblog.
Cheers & footy love, nikhak

The Chicago Fire Soccer Club are kicking off a season of food, fitness and fun for the city’s soccer fans and families by naming Quaker as the club’s official Breakfast Foods & Nutritious Snacks Partner with the centerpiece of the partnership being the new 2012 jersey, which prominently features the famed Quaker logo in a powerful yet classic design.

Fire and Quaker Oats team up for multi-year sponsorship - [Chicago Fire]

I am torn on the new Chicago Fire jerseys. I like them more than I thought I would, but with so much navy (and I love navy), I feel like they’re similar to the Revs. The classic Chicago flag stars are what really make those away jerseys stand out. I’m excited to see them in person now.
And everyone outta stop hating on Quaker. Here are two thoughts:
1. Sponsorship money is great for the Fire. They were in dire need of the extra cash flow.
2. Quaker Oats is a local company, who better to represent the Fire than a company from Chicago?
What do you guys think of the new Fire jerseys, or any other new MLS jerseys for the 2012 season? Like um, leave um, love um… ??
Footy love, nikhak
Hello soccer peeps :) The above is a pretty sick (cool) series of pictures from my game the other night taken by a friend. If you don’t know me, I play for North Park University as the/a GK. We are currently 2-1 in CCIW. I know its fun to watch the big dogs (aka D1) play but don’t forget about us little people also :)
Hello lovely soccer ladies of Chicago,
I have an e-mail list of soccer women that I e-mail a few times a year about upcoming leagues, coaching positions, etc. If you’re interested in being a part of this mailing list, please send me your name and e-mail address at my Tumblr message/ask box. Please also don’t hesitate to ask questions.
Soccer love, nikhak (The Footy Queen)
p.s. I promise that I always BCC everyone’s names & e-mail addresses on the communications I send out. Sharing is not always caring. :)
(Please feel free to reblog this.)
I heard Spilger hit, smacked, punched, or something Abby Wambach in the face. Is it true? Red Stars defender Natalie Spilger dribble downs the line and looks to connect up top. Chicago Red Stars 2 : 2 Washington Freedom
