    Eastside's girls' teams are now Eastside Thorns. Their boys' teams are still Eastside Timbers.

    And nothing to do with the Thorns' Academy.

        After thorns had four straight bad seasons this makes perfect sense.

            Branding

            Just branding,

            Girls Thorns Boy Timbers after the pro clubs in town.

            Slight better than Crossfire branding.

            Maybe the only club that stand on its own accomplishments these days is good old PCU, just hard to find what they are good at.

              Parents can drop kids off at thorns practice and head down the street to the shooting range or tavern and guzzle some Busch Light. Win/win/win.

                I thought people were giving the thorns academy a hard time by calling them Eastside Thorns, but I guess it was real. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade - - with well vodka of course.

                      Dang! This truth hurts so much more than jokes at the White House Correspondent's Dinner. 💀

                        They are now the Eastside Thorns. There's a big banner up at the field now. It's the real deal.

                          "For Immediate Release:
                          Eastside Thorns FC to launch for the 2018-19 OYSA Season
                          Eastside Timbers is proud to announce our partnership with Portland Thorns FC, as our girls competitive program becomes Eastside Thorns FC"

                          Here's a link to the announcement:

                            Again, to be clear:

                            THIS IS THE EASTSIDE TIMBERS' GIRLS PROGRAM RENAMING ITSELF.

                            This is not the Thorns' Academy GDA program relocating to, or being run by, Eastside.

                            This has NOTHING TO DO WITH THE GDA.

                              All this means is that the Eastside girls will now be called Thorns and will wear Nike kits, not Adidas. It's a chance for Nike to get a toehold in the TA clubs. All TA girls programs were offered this options. Most saw it for the ridiculousness that it is - Eastside is really going to expect every female player to buy an entirely new kit to be Nike, regardless of when their last kit was purchased. Just so they can call themselves "Thorns." Unbelievably stupid.
