You'll Never Blog Alone

Twentysomething American, distracting herself from law school by obsessing about 1) Liverpool FC, 2) the England national team, and 3) Steven Gerrard. I'm an avowed Chelsea and Real Madrid hater, and I refuse to care about the US Men's National Team. You

Okay, so I'll be honest -- this is basically dead because I realized I didn't have a whole lot original to say. I have a lot more fun posting pictures and links and short little snippets of commentary.You can find those things here:TwitterNeeds More Kittens [Tumblr]This is staying up, but I'd be surprised if anything of substance is posted again.

Impending live-blogginess

You'll Never Blog Alone @ 04:24 PM EST
Just a heads-up, y'all. My crush on the Columbus Crew continues, and shows no signs of abating. (This crush seems especially focused on Robbie Rogers and Brad Evans, but that's really neither here nor there, is it?) Anyway, because Columbus picked this season to also be a good team, they are in the MLS Eastern Conference final, which I will be liveblogging at this very location tomorrow Click to continue reading...

New MLS crush

You'll Never Blog Alone @ 04:54 PM EST
Video courtesy of The Offside Rules. Yes, Danny Cepero scored a record-setting goal against my team. Yes, he just eliminated Houston (and therefore Geoff Cameron and Stuart Holden) from the playoffs. But that boy is cute, and that's all there is to it. Well, that plus my well-documented weakness for keepers. Click to continue reading...

David Beckham on Sesame Street

You'll Never Blog Alone @ 12:16 PM EST
Via Ballhype: I'm sorry, I would have commentary, but I'm too busy flailing at the cuteness of it all. I do have to say, I like this version of Beckham a lot better than the one who bitches at refs and gets calls he doesn't deserve. Not that I'm bitter about the DC/Galaxy game last night. I've been watching a lot of MLS lately, both because Liverpool have been so utterly uninspiring and Click to continue reading...

Quick note

You'll Never Blog Alone @ 09:01 AM EST
I am guest-blogging today at This Is Extra Time. I don't think I'm gonna cross-post, but if y'all want to know my thoughts on ... random hot players, head over there. Click to continue reading...

Pointless question of the day

You'll Never Blog Alone @ 10:26 PM EST
Actually, two questions: 1) When did Rogers get that tattoo, and 2) what the hell is it a tattoo of? I mean, I think it's probably better than Feilhaber's crooked Latin or Daniel Agger's ... everything and the kitchen sink, but man. If I can't see it, I can't judge it. Bah. Also, um, nice abs, kid.

Lessons from the Olympics

You'll Never Blog Alone @ 11:25 PM EST
1. Robbie Rogers is not a defender. 2. Very few men can successfully wear a white beret. Specifically, only Benny Feilhaber and Maurice Edu. Click to continue reading...

Oh, look...

You'll Never Blog Alone @ 08:13 AM EST
This post is still necessary. Call me the cranky feminist of the soccer blogosphere, but things like the comments on this post are fucking vile, and disrespectful of all women, let alone soccer fans. If y'all wanna have a frat party, is the internets really the best place for it? Much harder to tap a good keg online, I have to say. Click to continue reading...

Quick hit -- that's a lot of money

You'll Never Blog Alone @ 11:24 PM EST
Yeah, this time the radio silence has been for a good reason -- the bar exam is less than two weeks away, and I am pretty much constantly studying. But I had to post about this, because Kaka to Chelsea for 80m pounds? That's 100m euros, and I don't even want to calculate how much that is in dollars. Click to continue reading...

Shallow and frivolous

You'll Never Blog Alone @ 07:01 PM EST
18-year-old footballer breaks news of transfer on Facebook. Honestly, I'm a little surprised this hasn't happened before. (Though I think Alecko Eskandarian may have announced his transfer to, like, Real Salt Lake on Facebook. But that was at least one trade ago, and it's MLS.) Speaking of Real Salt Lake, I present the first in an occasional series, called Hot MLS Coaches. Click to continue reading...

Euro final liveblog

You'll Never Blog Alone @ 01:01 PM EST
Once again, I will be joining forces with This is Extra Time to liveblog the final. Apparently Ballack's fit, but Villa's out, so I have to call this for Germany. I hear you can never count them out. Click to continue reading...

Spain/Italy liveblog

You'll Never Blog Alone @ 01:26 PM EST
Let's see if Spain can avoid their usual routine of playing well in the group and then choking at the earliest possible opportunity. My guess: probably not. Italy's defense is kinda weak, but Spain is Spain. Here's hoping. Click to continue reading...

Why I love Ladies...

You'll Never Blog Alone @ 07:58 PM EST
Sexism in sports blogging: A Q&A. You should all read this. I think the soccer blogosphere (god, I hate that word) is actually a little better about all this than some other sections of the sports blogging world -- seriously, there are sites that I can't even read because they're so overtly misogynist.
