The first “Pic of the Week” of the year starts off on a somber note, as this week’s picture features the final bow Portuguese legend Eusébio will ever make on a football pitch. His body laid in state at Benfica’s Estádio da Luz after the great striker passed away this week aged 71. Though the Mozambique-born […]

the road not taken

If you’re reading this and you’re from the United States, odds are you’re familiar with Robert Frost’s quintessential American poem, “The Road Not Taken”. It’s pretty much law here that you are to memorize it at dome point during your schooling. Ask your average American their favorite poem, and if they can produce one, odds […]

So I normally try to get my “Pic of the Week” posts up on Mondays, and I had high hopes to do so this week as well. But I’m bending the rules on this one, and for good reason. You see, last week was a very special week at the WSOTP world headquarters… Pictured above on the left: […]

WSOTP pod: episode 20

on December 31, 2013December 31, 2013 by D.J. Switzer

Season 1 Episode 20 The last podcast of 2013 sure was a doozy. On top of having to cover two eventful rounds of matches thanks in the Premier League’s hectic holiday schedule — Boxing Day fixtures plus a full slate of weekend matches — and D.J. and Jeremy hashing out their bests and worsts of […]

tan-demonium

on December 30, 2013January 5, 2014 by D.J. Switzer

Football, at it’s most basic form, should be about nothing more than the sporting spectacle that takes place on rectangular patches of grass around the world. Though more often than not, we focus as much on the drama off the pitch as we do on it. Much is made of this dichotomy, and how the […]

WSOTP pod: episode 19

Season 1 Episode 19 Another podcast, another chance for D.J. to moan about Tottenham? Though that’s not exactly how things work, Episode 19 of the #WSOTPpod does feature his thoughts on AVB’s sacking for… Tim Sherwood? In addition to the Christmas Edition of the pod covering all of the normal Premier League round up, you […]

There were a number of pictures worthy of being deemed this week’s big selection — I had a particularly hard time denying this ridiculous picture of NAC Breda players celebrating a rare win in the pitch-side fan jacuzzi. But only one was truly deserving, and it’s due mainly to the circumstances that surround and explain […]

ten words or less #85

on December 21, 2013September 17, 2014 by D.J. Switzer

With the hectic Christmas football calendar about to kick off and the transfer window to follow shortly after, it seemed prudent to get a Ten Words or Less in so we’ll have ample room in the next one to cover the all of the upcoming commotion. But that doesn’t mean this week has been devoid […]

the WSOTP x Campo Retro cheer up a spur holiday giveaway

on December 20, 2013December 20, 2013 by D.J. Switzer 2 Comments

With it being the holiday season and all, despite Tottenham being in complete and utter turmoil, I have to admit I’m still feeling the holiday spirit. I know not all of my fellow Spurs supporters are feeling so festive, the gloom dimming all of the bright holiday lights. So I thought I’d do something to […]

for what?

on December 17, 2013January 11, 2014 by D.J. Switzer

As I sit here basking in the post-apocalyptic glow that’s followed the long-rumored sacking of Tottenham Hotspur manager André Villas-Boas, I can’t help but ask myself one question over and over. For what? If the current state of affairs at the club is when Spurs would feel it necessary to pull the trigger, then for […]
