footy news

celtic sucks.


okay, i admit, it was an preseason friendly/warm up type match, and it was against the stars of the league. but still, 2-0 on some really nice goals. and, it's not like all star teams have the benefit of practicing together, knowing where people will and should be. and, it's nice to see that this is the second year in a row where the mls all stars have beaten a top notch squad. last year's victim, chelski, will be playing the galaxy on saturday. maybe you've heard, this beckham fellow is supposed to play.

oh, and dana, the earthquakes are coming back.

coming up

tomorrow you can probably count on a blog about the second leg of the chelsea v liverpool game. if anyone wants to try and catch some with me, it's on @ 11:45.


you can also expect another few posts from me this evening, as i'm t.a.'ing for class and am doing a whole lot of nothing.

chelsea vs liverpool

second verse, same as the first: uefa champions league.

"didier drogba unsheathed the dagger and joe cole plunged it into the heart of liverpool"

29 minutes in, chelski 1, liverpool nil.

chelsea is owned by roman abramovich, mentioned in this link (see the story on rich russians)



the wisdom of a fortune cookie, from the lunch i ate while watching footy.

so, we're to half of a relatively mild game. been some flashes, like cole's goal, but otherwise not too much happening. although, to be truthful, i did miss the first 20 minutes of the game while i was getting a haircut.

in the meantime, i thought i'd show you that lady from yesterday's fresno famous link myspace page. yeah, i think she may have some issues. to illustrate my point, i want to show you pictures she uses to "prove" her case about buildings being moved, and some guy that is secretly behind so much of it



this one is my favorite. remember, this is supposed to show a real person who is behind it all.


i sort of feel bad about highlighting this stuff. but, the lady is all over the place. she posts this stuff on fresno famous, on the tower district myspace group, anywhere she can.

i was really excited to watch a good bit of this game and to catch the result later. i've been a long time bulls fan, this may be the first playoff series win since jordan left.

hey, not that we care, but rosie is leaving the view.


so, maybe you've figured out by all the other sideline comments that the game isn't very interesting. you'd be right. yesterday's match had much more drama (at least so far). neither side seems to be playing very inspired soccer.

another brit, banksy, is doing very well for himself right now.

inside the final minute, chelsea still leading...oh wait, two minutes stoppage time...during which nothing happened.

chelsea 1, liverpool 0.

has it been that long?

wow, i can't believe that i haven't posted since sunday. oh well. here's a brief one. i actually had wanted to post some of this the other day, but blogger was having fits and wouldn't let me.

it looks like ronaldo is headed for ac milan. the last real match i saw, he finally looked fit again.

now that it's official, there are finally stories about claudio reyna & the new jersey red bulls

this has me the most excited, gooch may be headed to chelski. score another one for us soccer!

i hope to have a more proper post either tonight or tomorrow.
