Why SJ Earthquakes
SJ Earthquakes work as a second team because they come with their own geography: USA, PayPal Park San Jose, California, and a set of rivalries you will absorb faster than you expect.
Easy weekend
Norman Y. Mineta San Jose International Airport (SJC) is about 1km from the ground, and Santa Clara station is 1km closer still. A home fixture is a genuinely doable two-night trip.
The calendar you inherit
Following USA MLS means odd kick-off hours, a new commentary language and a table you will check before your own club's. USA becomes part of your week.
Modern era club
Formed in 1995, so the whole story is documented, arguable and still being written. Join now and you were basically there from the start.
Nothing won, everything to play for
The trophy cabinet is a shelf and a rumour. Supporting SJ Earthquakes is a bet on a first, not a return to former glories.
