mad man
there are few things that grind my gears more than a waste of talent. many people (myself included) would give up their first born for an opportunity to make it at the highest levels of football. for those of us not born with phsycial traits akin to olympic gods or the blessing of amazing skills, […]
i want to be in that number!
“…oh when the spurs… come…. marching…. in!!!!!” it’s safe to say that i’m still on a high from last night’s result at white hart lane. and i want to apologize to those readers who aren’t spurs fans before i get too much farther, as this is nothing more than a gloating, celebratory post. as a […]

the word of the day
i could easily write for the next three straight days about what did or didn’t happen during today’s transfer deadline day. seriously. as i sat and watched the transfer tickers update themselves today, i had about twenty potential topics rush into my brain. why didn’t tottenham sell roman pavlyuchenko? oh yeah, because they decided to […]
the decade that was – part 2
Now for part two of my review of the last decade — and my apologies about being a few days late — whereI review and weigh in on the biggest stories of the 2000’s in the world of football. Thanks to all who read the first installment where I shared my choices for the Best […]
