In fact, finding the crème de la crème of American soccer scribes might require you to look outside of the digital realm, and back into the ancient art of print media. And luckily enough for us Americans, […]

the more the merrier?
Once upon a time not so long ago, it was very difficult to watch soccer in the United States on television. It’s a thought that seems almost foreign these days, considering the amount of footy we had at our disposal over the last few years. Growing up in the late 80’s and early 90’s, outside […]
i want: deuce face tee
If you happen follow me on any of the various social media networks, you’re probably well aware of my recent obsession with the face the “Deuce Face”. Made on pitch by American star Clint Dempsey in the USMNT’s second World Cup qualifier against Jamaica last month, Dempsey was openly mocking his Jamaican counterparts for crying […]
the WSOTP soccer pub atlas project
Thanks to its rise in popularity over the last decade, it’s never been easier to watch football in the United States than it is today. Most Americans with a digital cable subscription have at least one full-time soccer channel at their disposal, meaning watching a load of live European matches per week from the comforts […]
i want: kwik all-surface soccer tennis
While surfing on KYCK a few weeks ago, one of the users made a post about how cool it would be to have soccer-tennis as an Olympic sport. And while the odds of that happening are about as good as Andy Carroll leading the Premier League in scoring this season, it did ignite my interest […]

As you might expect, the benefits for doing so are many: you’re the first to know when posts land on the blog, you’re privy to view albums from my various adventures in the world […]
an interview with the professional soccer pub barristers at the football factory at legends
Despite being the cultural center of our nation, New York City is an inherently very eclectic city. One could ramble on for hours about all of the various intricacies of the metropolis: its hustle and bustle nature, the nightlife, its skyscrapers and sprawl, taxis and subways, the glitz and glam of 5th Avenue, all the […]
tailored by umbro
The footballing gods must be smiling down on me again, as they’ve bestowed another gift upon me: awaiting my arrival on Monday evening after work was another box full of awesome from my good friends over at Umbro. Perhaps an early birthday present, as it was delivered to me just a few days shy of […]
i want: umbro nottingham forest away shirt
Though I was disappointed to see Forest miss out on promotion back to the Premier League this season, I am happy about the outcome for at least one reason. Since I’m not supposed to want wear kits of my beloved Spurs’ (current) rivals, Nottingham Forrest spending another season in the Championship means that it’s a least slightly […]
