Then a firefighter at a neighboring table talked up the fire service. She liked that it was physically challenging and largely outdoors. Thompson learned more about the profession when she joined a fire Explorer program in Riverside County, and took EMT and fire science classes at a community college after graduating high school early. At 18, she was hired by Cal Fire, then known as the California Department of Forestry. "Other than the small time that I spent working at McDonald's when I was in high school to pay my car insurance, this is the only job I've ever had," she said. Next month, she's retiring after 31 years, all of it in the San Diego region. She is the…...

1+ day, 2+ hour ago (1149+ words) The Vancouver Whitecaps are heading to the MLS Cup, playing for a league championship for the first time in franchise history. The Whitecaps advanced to the championship by earning a decisive 3-1 win Saturday over San Diego FC in the Western Conference final. It didn't take long for Vancouver to pull out to a lead: Just eight minutes into the match, Brian White found the back of the net off a pass from Andres Cubas. And only three minutes later, the Whitecaps scored again off a wild shot that took an unfortunate bounce off the back of San Diego keeper Pablo Sisniega. White made it a first-half brace in first-half stoppage time, using his chest to send a cross from Ali Ahmed into the goal, and bringing Vancouver to a dominant 3-0 lead. Despite that, San Diego came out in the second…...

1+ day, 4+ hour ago (804+ words) Vancouver has the opposite vibe. The Whitecaps are comfortable dragging games into the mud, defending in numbers and waiting for the right counter or set-piece to swing things their way. They don't mind if it's chippy or cagey, in fact, they prefer it. For SDFC, the risk is pushing too hard too early and leaving itself exposed. For Vancouver, it's getting stuck under pressure for long stretches and never finding its release valve. Either way, both teams are staring at a massive opportunity with a conference trophy at stake, and Messi looming in the distance. Buckle up. With San Diego in its first second, the meetings between the two teams are limited. This season, they met twice. The first game, in June, resulted in a 5-3 San Diego win in Vancouver behind a stunning four-goal haul from Milan Iloski. The second…...

In the 45'+2' minute, Brian White strikes again from close range, slotting it into the bottom left corner thanks to a clever assist from Ali Ahmed. SDFC head into the break staring at a 3-0 deficit, Whitecaps have been ruthless in this first half. SDFC keep knocking on the door, 39 minutes in, Manu Duah wins a free kick in a dangerous area. The Wave are hungry for a breakthrough, and the stadium buzzes as they line up to test the Whitecaps' defense once more. Pressure's mounting for…...

1+ day, 10+ hour ago (959+ words) SAN DIEGO -- SDFC's historic inaugural MLS season finished in a 3-1 Western Conference Final heartbreak defeat at Snapdragon Stadium on Saturday night at the hands of the visiting Vancouver Whitecaps, falling one win short of the chance to play for the MLS Cup. For one last time in their inaugural season, San Diego FC hosted a match in Snapdragon Stadium, this time with the Western Conference title and a trip to the 2025 MLS Cup in play. No matter the result, the winner of the Western Conference title would travel to Chase Stadium to face off against Inter Miami for the MLS Cup. This comes after Inter Miami claimed the 2025 MLS Eastern Conference title before the West final kicked off, and held more regular-season points than SDFC and the Whitecaps.
