Tell Me About It! Ep. 2


Episode Description: The evolution of the Timbers Army (TA) is legendary.  What began as a handful of rabid Timbers Soccer fans have become a community and political force to be reckoned with…nearly 3,000 wildly diverse people who share a passion and love for soccer, Portland and this region, and community.  Host Francine Raften goes behind the scenes to infiltrate the Timbers Army, visit their spiritual homes The Bitter End Pub and The Bull Pen, talk to veteran TA, learn about Capos, rituals, traditions and more.  Plus, the exciting initiative kicked off this month by the TA nonprofit arm- the 107ist (Independent Supporters Trust) to build athletic clubs called Portland Advantage Centers aimed at melding soccer, poetry, and service with after-school programs to boost student achievement and literacy.
