A 2-year-old needed lifesaving surgery. One doctor said he "can do this with my eyes closed," but others had grave doubts. The child died on the operating table.

Did JMH put profit ahead of safety? Important work from the @sfchronicle investigative team

Where, if anywhere, will Chris Wondolowski play soccer next season? He may not stay in San Jose. https://t.co/pqxxDm5BHx @NickEilerson

[Nick Eilerson @NickEilerson]

Will he stay or will he go? Wondo's decision appears to hinge on whether the Quakes get more aggressive this offseason or stick to the status quo: https://t.co/CBRNuy2SyX #Quakes74

The Quakes were getting massacred on a regular basis and instead of shaking things up their coach made a wild bet: "We're going to double down."

And it worked.

SJ heads to top-seeded Kansas City Sunday for its first playoff appearance since 2017:

I wrote about the election from the perspective of a surly British couple:

Wow. That errant whistle may well have cost the Quakes 3 points. Not great!

[Nick Eilerson @NickEilerson]

#Quakes74 are scintillating to watch when they play with energy and command. Horrific to watch when gas tank is anything less than full.

Erratic results to be expected for a team like that in a compressed schedule. That's my take. 🔥🔥🔥

[Nick Eilerson @NickEilerson]

Nick Lima's absence seems the only thing separating the Quakes from a great 1st half

[Nick Eilerson @NickEilerson]

Exciting to see young guys get opportunities, but playing musical chairs with your back line game-to-game is generally not a recipe for stability. Should be interesting!

I don't like to be hyperbolic, but the situation for local non-chain restaurants really is about to go from deep shit to "extinction event" unless the government does something about it. Let's raise hell until they do.

Are climate change or poor forest management worsening California fires? Yes.

Final in Seattle: Quakes substitutes 1, Sounders 0

PURE MAGIC FROM WONDO SURELY SEALING GAME MVP WITH THAT ONE

[Nick Eilerson @NickEilerson]

Definitely looking forward to real talk like this from the boys at @BlackAndAzul after the game

Today is the darkest day in #Quakes74 history.

[Nick Eilerson @NickEilerson]

Luis Felipe cannot believe he's not being subbed out. And neither can we.

[Nick Eilerson @NickEilerson]

Please put your TV on mute and/or understand that there is absolutely nothing positive coming out of this performance from the Quakes. Already irredeemable.

[Nick Eilerson @NickEilerson]

Quakes TV is hilarious.

"So, uh, that was interesting, but you know what else is interesting? Chris Wondolowski! How good is that guy, huh? Can we run some Wondo highlights please? Yeahhhh Wondo, I mean what a human being, a treasure sent..."
