Were you planning on attending MLS Cup this November in Seattle? To be honest – I wasn’t. At least until, one day, while sipping a latte and reading the Guardian cover-to-cover in Googlereader and listening to the BBC, a group of masked thugs kicked in the front door to my house. In the blink [...]
The people have clamored for more interactive lesson-planning. You are bored of reading my writing. It’s okay. I’m not offended. Not in the slightest. I had a good cry or two, but I’m over it. You, the student-consumer are always right. Plus I also found some fantastic supporters videos courtesy of Miguel of El Batallon, [...]
The long MLS season has lumbered to an end, and as the cold chills of November fill the lungs, we embark upon the postseason.

Have you heard of fistedaway? Really? I guess that makes you pretty ignorant since the Guardian has. But not even the Guardian could have predicted another guestpost, by me, regarding Sir Alex´s rage at…no, not refs…his player´s eating habits. Find the scoop here.
Fabio Capello recently spoke at a conference and mentioned Michael Owen. But, to be honest, I don´t care. What interested me more was the sleight of tongue when discussing a return to Juventus. Browse the article, skimming the Owen nonsense and reading the second-to-last paragraph.
Did you catch it? “…In football, anything can happy…”? A potential [...]
The dame wore red.
I sat at my desk, sorting through collections bills, light bills, water bills, and every kind of bill but the kind I like to see – green. It was one of those days you would throw away if the trashcan was big enough. But it wasn´t. And I didn´t.
