I'm joking with that subject line, obviously. Keane resigns as Sunderland boss Roy Keane has
resigned as manager of Sunderland after 27 months in charge. Keane, 37, took over in 2006 but chose
to step down with the club lying 18th in the Premier League following five defeats in six matches.
"Roy's decision sums up his desire to always [.

Premier League appearance in a 0-0 draw against Fulham in Birmingham, England, on Saturday. The

The perils of an extremely young team, I guess. Bendtner immediately headed towards the corner flag
and took off his shirt to show the home crowd what a man he was. Automatic yellow card. If he gets
one more, he's suspended, and that's yet another player Arsenal can't rely on. Arsenal 1-0 Dynamo

provided yet another example of why the most basic and minimal goal-line technology wouldn't be a
terrible idea.] Ha! Liverpool 0-0 Fulham. Another loss at home! Bah! Not just bah -- this is utter

Whiny Willie needs to start packing. Surely they'll sell his pitiful over-the-hill ass in
January. I bet there are plenty of teams in France who would like to have him around given
his team-building acumen. If he's named captain on Saturday, I'm gonna lose it. Arsenal will be
lucky to get a Champions League spot [.

statement out of Italy, soccer players are dropping their shorts to score goals. Catania, a team in
the country's top division, unveiled the new look while taking [.

Hilarious story from Serie A. Bologna, sitting in the relegation zone at #18, fortuitously tied
against Siena yesterday. And then ... After the game Bologna's Vangelis Moras went to celebrate the
away point against Siena by saluting the traveling supporters and throwing his shirt into the
stands for a fan to take home as [.

People who listen to non-English rock music are a pretentious bunch. I've never met anyone who
listens to non-English rock who isn't a total dweeb -- I'd throw this particular kind of music fan
in the same category as Jethro Tull, Yes, or Moody Blues fans. I.e., people I'd rather not discuss
music [.
