The doll came off as needy, hysterical, and a compulsive liar. But I’d always been a sucker for dark haired dames.
She had certainly selected a trendy enough spot, if you ignored the closed storefronts, that is. I felt like I was in a developer’s dream, but a banker had shaken him awake once the finances [...]
The Clasico of Spain ended in a 1-0 Catalan victory thanks to an Ibrahimovic medical textbook finish (Anatomy 101). Still, weeks after losing 4-0 to Acorn State, Madrid put forth a productive if not polished performance. The blanquillos played with incredible self-belief, making Thomas the train engine appear a manic depressed truck driver attending [...]
There comes a time in every man’s left where, no matter how atrociously he played a sport, he plays it even worse. He plays it so bad, and his knees ache so much, that the “I need the cardio” excuse no longer holds muster. But how can he stay involved in the sport in the [...]
Wayne Rooney scored three goals against Portsmouth. And in honor of his hat-trick, we proudly present a series of wildly exaggerated sports cliches with little basis in reality.

This is the ultima clase (last class) in your nascent Spanglish careers. Well, at least official [...]
I knew when I created this blog a year ago that, well, it would not be an opiate for the masses. So each year, as awards are doled out and votes counted, I don’t hold my breath. No, true to form, I nominate other blogs for awards, vote for other blogs, etc. etc. Well you [...]
The ever excellent FistedAway has turned up the dirt on the lingering MLS-ESPN TV Rights dispute. For those of you who don’t follow MLS, here’s a little tidbit to wet your appetite: Neil Patrick Harris is interviewed. Yes, Neil Patrick Harris of Doogie Howser M.D.. What does that have to do with soccer? Go [...]
“Brilliant Mistake” by Elvis Costello & the Attractions
