	Portland Timbers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Portland Timbers are Portland, Oregon's entry in the USL First Division, the second tier of professional soccer in the United States.
		The Timbers' hardcore fans are known as the Timbers Army.
		The lead fan is Timber Jim, a wild man who wields a live chainsaw around the field, cutting off a slab of a log each time the team scores.

	VANCOUVER 1 PORTLAND 0
		Portland had taken the first game 3-1 for only their second positive result of the season.
		Maybe it was a case of tired legs at the beginning for Vancouver and at the end for Portland: the game fizzled out of the gate, being hampered by close marking, closer refereeing, and an inability to hold on to the ball for any measurable length of time.
		The Timbers defence dealt capably with the problems that were being created, until the 56th minute when the Whitecaps almost stole the opener.

	VANCOUVER 1 PORTLAND 1
		By about the mid-point of the half, it was the Timbers that were carrying the play, and the Whitecaps had to endure some nervous moments: McKinley Tennyson was a presence all evening, but his opportunities were limited by the inability of the supporting cast to get the ball to him with any accuracy.
		Timber forward Fadi Afash chased the apparent lost cause to the endline before hooking over a cross that deflected off someone in front and landed right at the feet of Jake Sagare who side-footed the ball into the goal for the opener.
		Portland were content at that point to put all available players behind the ball, leaving big Tennyson to handle the goal scoring chores.

	The Timber Mill - "We Saw It All"
		Portland Timbers radio announcer Andy McNamara has been nominated as a finalist for the 2005 Sportscaster of the Year for the state of Oregon, an award presented annually by the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association (NSSA).
		Portland was known as "Soccer City USA" during the heyday of the Timbers in the 1970's, and has maintained that reputation, even without a professional team calling the city home for several years.
		That excitement returned to Portland in 2001 as the newest member of the A-League, the Portland Timbers, had the 2nd highest attendance in the league, had two crowds over 11,000, and advanced to the second round of the playoffs in their first year.

		Currently the Portland Timbers are at the top of the Western Division of the A-League and have won all of their games on the almost-real-grass field at the newly refurbished PGE Park (formerly Civic Stadium).

	Portland Timbers - Seattle Sounders, 2005 Aug 20
		For Portland, Kevin Goldthwaite's throw-in to the near post was flicked on nicely by Dan Antoniuk's head towards the far post, and Preston Burpo had to be sharp to dive out and snare it.
		At 31', Portland chipped a ball through the Seattle defense to give Paul Conway a pressured shot from 15, and he was just wide of the far post.
		For Portland, Higgins worked a nice wall pass with Antoniuk inside the penalty area for a 15-yard shot up the middle, and Burpo collapsed on it and held.

		As the Portland Timbers opened their clash against the San Jose Earthquakes at a sweltering, sizzling PGE Park last night, the local minor-leaguers had the Major League Soccer champions on the run.
		Portland forwards Alan Gordon and Byron Alvarez-a two-man scourge of the A-League with almost two dozen goals between them-managed little headway against a defense anchored by Curt Waibel, a menacing shaven-headed warrior who towered over Alvarez and out-muscled the rookie Gordon.
		Portland’s midfield struggled to adjust to the ‘Quakes speed, while a number of promising Timbers attacks that would likely have struck minor-league gold died on canny San Jose defenders’ boots.

	PORTLAND TIMBERS 2005 PREVIEW
		Portland finished the regular season with the most points, the most goals, the largest goal differential, and the most points per match…and then crashed and burned pretty quickly in the playoffs.
		Portland started the season winning six straight, and went 7-3-0 in their last 10 regular season matches.
		So the Timbers are without their top scorer, they’re older than dirt, their new owners appear to be too cheap to find a top-shelf striker, and they don’t have Edmonton, Calgary and Milwaukee to kick around anymore.

		PORTLAND, OR (9-8-2005)-- With much on the line the Timbers came through Thursday night with a gigantic 6-1 win over the Atlanta Silverbacks, improving the teams record to straight 9-9-9 with one regular season match remaining.
		Section 107 was almost entirely empty, only Drumman and a few others were there and that was mostly in a role of unifier between 106 and 108 and at the 75th minute the two sides converged to fill 107 for the last part of the match.
		Byron would give the Timbers their second goal early in the second half (51st minute unassisted)when he stole the ball and made a nice run to the net, faking the keeper and putting the ball in.

		The Timbers Army, if you aren’t in the know, is a group of hardcore fans who sit in section 107 of PGE Park.
		The place was packed with people decked in the Timbers colors of green and white, and it took a good while to get to the bar and snag a couple of $3 Red Stripes.
		The teams were pretty evenly matched, but I think the Timbers had an advantage on the artificial turf, which lets the ball roll faster than on grass.
