We lost #RIvPOR on purpose, to win #PORvAV with our best eleven, but didn't.
Now we need an HUGE improvement, to get atleast 3/9 points of the last nine days!
Kickoff will be 30 minutes after midnight, but I'll support you live. As always. #UpTheHearts
Dear Hearts. this was an exhausting week for us fans and some disappointing showings by the team.
We need to win this match, to climb a bit and to not make this three game stretch a total disaster.
You lost #RIvPOR on purpose, to win #PORvAV and didn't. Now third time's a charm, right?
A new #FallenLeavesPod is now online! ♥️🌲

I'm now watching #PORvAV a 2nd time, so I can recap and probably rant the 2nd match on my new #FallenLeavesPod!

Some #UpTheHearts thoughts
- We lost #RIvPOR on purpose, while being toothless at the league game we lost for
- We still have no Plan B
- Without magic moments / mistakes we can't score
- Corners & Crosses are still harmless
- Playing through the middle is lava #PORvAV
Yeah, sure.
My Hearts lost #RIvPOR on purpose, to focus on the midweek match vs AV², to play the A-Squad there. Well, we lost 0-2.
Now we have no chance for the knockout stages of UsL Cup anymore and lost the game we wanted to lose for.
ICYMI: Here's the #AnchorsUp x #FallenLeavesPod collab you waited fore!
@rifcpodcast.bsky.social and I discussed the 4-1 win of Rhode Island vs my Hearts of Pine, the vibes & much more!
Give this a listen and support the USL in general!

I re-watched and recapped #RIvPOR for my #FallenLeavesPod.
Some quotes:
- "Robert E. Lee and the Conferederates had more fighting spirit, than we had"
- "It's like David who shot a cotton candy on Goliath and not a stone!"
A disappointing mess. A loss on purpose #UpTheHearts #USLJägermeisterCup
I was re-watching a certain USL game for a certain USL Podcast and I realized:
Eh Rhode Island: you have a tiny pinch of game in your ads!

Some #UpTheHearts #RIvPOR thoughts:
- Unsure about the amount of rotation
- We conceded goals by things we're abysmal at [crosses]
- We were clearly outperformed.
- Several players who had an off day
+Titus looked decent
+Keegan got more playing time
+uuuuuuuugh
FT at #RIvPOR. 4-1.
This game was a duel between boys and men.
While we couldn't do much and looked disoriented with a to heavily rotated XI, RIFC did nearly everything right and got their 2nd hom win plus the best performance of '25.

Are we watching soccer or a Monster Truck Show?
RIFCs stadium announcer probably things the latter.
#RIvPOR
Sure. Fuson scored.
Was not good - at all - in 2025 and he scored today. Today everyone is allowed to score.
Eddie Guerrero returns from the grave, cashes a MITB briefcase in and scores too! #RIvPOR
Can we get Matt of Raising Anchor being the RIFC PA again?
The new guy really sounds like, he wants to sell you tickets in an old Monster Truck Show commercial
"Sunday, Sunday, Sunday. Just at the Vault ..." #RIvPOR
Isaac Angking will score the 4th for RIFC. I call it!
#RIvPOR #AnchorsUp #UpTheHearts
We have now more people on the roof, than Dikwa goals this evening. Yet.
COS Dikwa scored THREE goals. #AnchorsUp #RIvPOR
#RIvPOR halftime thoughts:
- 11 guys but not a team on the pitch
- Keegan needs more playing time & is rusty
- We saw/heard more ads than saw good ♥️ chances
- Natty clearly our spark in the match so far
- RIFC clearly the better team
- RIFCs stadium looks empty on camera
"We have a problem with reliable strikers" - @rifcpodcast.bsky.social at the #RIvPOR preview.
Who scores not only 20 minutes in? Dikwa!
That was some type of psycho voodoo by Matt!
Any guesses how few fans are at #RIvPOR?
Seeing more gaps than people sometimes, I'd guess 5k at maximum.
It's time for the most important thing, of the least important things.
My Hearts of Pine, play in the USL Cup vs a D2 side from Rhode Island.
It's tough, but I now have to root against @rifcpodcast.bsky.social & @tmclaughlin79.bsky.social for once, but I forgive them!
Anchors up & Dirigo! #RIvPOR
Either @kaylorhodges.bsky.social and you are complete sickos - which I'd prefer at #RIvPOR - or delusional. :D

Yeah, I think I'll try to re-write / re-sent the media request next monday for a third time. Hope someone answers then! 😅
But atleast I'll have some cross-promotion/recording for #RIvPOR with me visiting @rifcpodcast.bsky.social
So @tmclaughlin79.bsky.social can't hate me for beating RIFC to much!
TITUS WASHINGTON SCORED! TITUS WASHINGTON SCORED!
IT'S NOW HEARTS 1-2 RHODE ISLAND. NEXT GOAL DECIDES THE GAME!
