Kallon has a new team

Long time readers of this blog know I liked having Kallon on our team.  He wasn't here long, and he was certainly difficult to manage, but there is no denying the guy has a killer instinct.  Anyway, he's finally found a new team.  Details here. Click to continue reading...

i was reminded of the Yogi Berra quote in this blog post's title yesterday when i went to a Sports Authority store in Wisconsin looking for a New York Jets Brett Favre jersey.

Being a lifelong Green Bay Packers fan, it took a monumental management mess up (in my mind) to get me to do this. Click to continue reading...

Loyalty: Club vs Country

1

I know that this is a blog that supposed to be about the Italian national team. But for today, instead of writing about the Azzurri, I'd gonna blog about an issue that's becoming pretty big in football. It's a post that's part-rant, and part-observation. It has almost nothing to do with Italy but everything to do with national teams, clubs and money.

Auctions for the Galaxy Game

0
The Wizards are auctioning off a lot of different pre-game things for the upcoming game against the LA Galaxy. You can bid to be the pre-game entertainment, the national anthem singer, pick the charity to be the Kicks for Kids Donation, and the Color Guard Donation. Auctioning anything they can with the pregame has gotten the Wizards noticed by Freakonomics, a blog with the New York Times (thanks to Peter for sending this my way). Click to continue reading...

Are Arsenal Fans REALLY Happy About Silvestre Signing?

1
I've had Arsenal fans bombarding this blog, telling me how good Mikael Silvestre is and what a good signing he is for Arsenal. I struggle to believe that any of these fans would have been saying the same thing a week ago if TribalFootball was running the story. Whilst admittedly having a soft spot for [.

Guatemala your national team is a disgrace

Don't blog angry. Don't ever blog angry. Sorry, but I have to break this cardinal rule in the middle of the night. Sue me. Sitting on my couch it's hard to recall a time where I was as infuriated watching a game as tonight's USMNT 1-0 victory over the no-class, dirtbags on the Guatemala national team.

So I know the majority of my readers are American, but I still want to post this email I got from a UK marketing firm. They are raising awareness for youth sporting initiatives in Britain by allowing people to vote for the initiative they want to receive funding.

I'm writing on behalf of Norwich Union who are working to help local sporting initiatives across Britain.

Silvestre, seriously?

2
I'm not feeling all that happy today. This morning, just about every paper and Arsenal blog held the story that Mikael Silvestre might be joining us in a cut price deal from United, in order to either slot into our defence or provide squad backup. A story that initially seems ludicrous is gathering momentum, and it [. Click to continue reading...

United Hooligans, Anti-England and David Beckham

1
I've had my fair share of scraps over football in my time, but never the organised hooligan business. Whilst not something I'd be involved in personally, I am intrigued about how it all works. Why do they go around kicking the crap out of people every weekend? Do they really love the club? How much [. Click to continue reading...
