As mentioned in a previous post, the group Soldier's Angels has a fund raiser known as Project
Valour-IT running through Veterans day. While all the donations go to the same cause the fund
raiser is being ran as a team competition. Even though the Marine corps is the smallest branch, the
Marine team currently leads the others branches (as expected) in fund raising.

I do not normally comment on non-soccer related items on this blog. While I have mentioned good
causes to support in the past, they have all been soccer related somehow. This is a little
different, no soccer involved but something I am supporting.There is a group known as Soldier's
Angels. They help the wounded who arrive in Germany and the States from Iraq and Afghanistan.

This is not the sort of morning that I'd relish watching a soccer game ... but two of my
intrepid housemates (applesrisp in hand) will be heading to Lewiston momentarily to watch the
Bobcats tangle with the Panthers. Would be so nice if Bates could defeat Middlebury ... and while
it's probably in the unlikely category, what I love about sports is that "it could happen.

As much as I enjoy Kartik's writing and analysis, let me add a counter-point on this. The
referee clearly blew this call, and there are no rules of the game or replay angels that would ever
indicate otherwise.
That being said, I try not to get fussed about blown calls. Soccer is a game of blown calls,
and nobody knows that better than me.

When Angels header hit the crossbar on the defensive end, resulting in a tap in goal, even
Trinidad and Tobago could hear the groans of the tri-state area; "oh no, not again." But, facing
yet another late goal and yet another half playing from behind, the Bulls did something we haven't
seen all season.

It shares a slightly apocalyptic feel with the covers of 2666. Who are all these winged people
anyway? Famous angels?

Carlo beats up angels Chelsea's new coach Carlo Ancelotti also has a sideline as an actor. The
ex-Milan man has appeared in a few Italian films (all football-themed). Here he is making his debut
in the 1983 film Don Camillo. Ancelotti is one of the secret weapons of a team of devils as they
battle it [.

Greg Wheldon, 34, is the first stab victim in Rome, after he was attacked in the early hours of
this morning as he walked to his hotel. The hotel staff ran out to rescue him whilst his attackers,
obviously believed to be Roma Ultras, legged it. His injury was to his left leg, which along with
arse slashing, is a trademark of the Ultras' attacks.

Manchester United fans have become accustomed to reading about our beloved players getting slated
in the press. Whilst certainly all of our players aren't angels, any of their wrong doings are put
firmly in the spot light. A sending off, a rant at the referee, a bad tackle, a wrongly awarded
penalty, are amongst the [.

First of all, congrats to Angel, who came off the bench in the second half for Blanco, and did
an excellent job, with a goal being waved off. Shame. It was a hell of a finish.
But the All Star Game isn't the only thing on Juanpies mind!
Angel recently had "productive" discussions with Colombian National Team Coach Jorge
Luis Pinto.

Its not a completely done deal but talks around the league say that along with the Joe Cannon to DC
deal could also see a deal with LA and Dallas moving Carlos Ruiz back to the City of Angels. So
this could be some kind of a mega-deal. Just a recap: Joe Cannon to DC Carlos Ruiz to LA (possibly,
