Yesterday President Barack Obama repealed the Mexico City Policy - the infamous gag rule that
pulled funding from health care providers who offered (or even just talked about) certain health
care options for women. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about. Obama's Day Three ...
was a mixed bag, reminding me that change is a process [.
Saturday morning ... last morning before we go back to daylight savings time. I'm having some
smooth, dark coffee and catching up on the news of the world while the sun comes up here. Scary
times, as the economy's woes seem to be accelerating with no end in sight. Maddow had a great
explanation of the [.
Fingers crossed here for another good NFL day for the bird teams. The Ravens I had with a
win. But the Cardinals? Wow. I just hope they didn't steal the Eagles'
mojo. (Nah ... an unworthy thought to be having this snowy NH Sunday.) If Ravens can
bring down Titans, certainly Eagles can bring down [.
Spoken like a true Phillies phan, I know. There's lots of news this morning on the Boston
Breakers front, starting with the fact that an agreement has been reached between the Boston Aztecs
and the Boston Breakers. Under the agreement the Aztecs will become the reserve team of the
Breakers. Seems like a positive [.
Interesting developments down on the South Coast yesterday (no, I don't mean Crouch actually doing
the ‘rope' celebration after his goal against Ukraine...) No, I'm talking about at St Mary's and
Southampton; whose parent company was placed into administration yesterday.A statement from mark
Fry earlier today paints an even bleaker picture; Southampton Leisure Holding plc‘s shares [.
They Think It's All Over... looks into the demise of Setanta Sports and suggests that their failure
to compete with the big boys of football broadcasting could be a bad omen for Manchester City fans
and a sad reflection on football as a whole.
You've heard by now that ESPN has won the yardsale/auction of Setanta's Premier League TV rights in
the UK. For those in the dark, Setanta UK couldn't afford to make the payments they'd promised to
the Premier League (basically, they didn't have enough subscribers) and so were stripped of the
rights.
Happy Saturday everyone! Looks like it's going to be one beauty of a day. HollyCornblog and
CharlieHopbrew should be on their way in another couple of hours and if I disappear for a while
after they arrive, well, you'll know what I'm up to! Let's see what's happening in the world of
soccer, first. I see [.
We've had both Darlington and Southampton fall into the hands of the administrators in recent
weeks. Add to that now Stockport County.
The club failed to secure a long-term plan which guaranteed the future of the club, and the
administrators have been forced to take action.
In the stark reality of today's game, their level of debt will bear little comparison to the
over-paid wages of our mega-rich footballers that currently grace the PL.
Some news agencies are reporting that Kevin Keegan's payout could force Newcastle into
administration (see here for example). What they are saying is that 'some at the club' (who?) fear
that a potential £9m payout to Keegan will break the club and send it into administration. They go
on to point out that we will be [.
Kevin Keegan is not claiming £25m from Newcastle United according to The Sunday Express. Keegan's
constructive dismissal claim, which the 'judges' retired to consider over the weekend, has been
plagued with rumours of £25m claims that will put the club into administration. Yet a 'close
Keegan aide' told the Express: "That is just malicious nonsense.
Yesterday's ruling that Southampton will be docked 10 points due to administrative errors means
they will effectively be relegated to League One once the final ball is kicked on May 3rd.. The
Football League ruling has sparked a furious reaction from Southampton Football Club, who are
expected to appeal against the punishment.
Watford Football Club are on the brink of administration after Chairman Jimmy Russo, vice-chairman
Vince Russo and director Robin Williams all resigned following a board meeting on Tuesday night.
The trio only joined the board at the beginning of this year but decided to step down before they
were pushed.
Today's the day that the Philadelphia Eagles take their next step toward their first Superbowl win!
How's them apples? Cocky, eh? Well, as I see it the Eagles are poised to join the
Phillies with a championship ... and Philly is poised to join Boston as a recent multi-championship
town. Won't that be something, the Biddles [.
