It seems there is a new WAG on the scene with Christine Bleakley announcing to her friends that she is dating the England and Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard. Bleakley is said to be comforting Lampard after his recent thigh injury and had stayed at his £3million London townhouse on Friday night only leaving at [. Click to continue reading...

Greetings, Dynamo fans. As we are all well aware, our beloved Orange fell short of the 2009 championship. It was a valiant effort against David Beckham and the LA Galaxy. Watching from Houston, the Dynamo played well on Friday night, but early Saturday was a different story.

As midnight passed, LA took advantage of two costly fouls by Ricardo Clark.

Friday night and we're on our second LAPL game in 5 days, back at Crossroads we're 2-0 down to Penmar at half-time. We're really not concentrating, or working anything like as hard as we need to, and though we're a couple of first-choicers light (Nick, Jeff, Mike, David, Theo all out) credit to Penmar - they capitalize. Click to continue reading...

So who watched the game Friday night between Los Angeles and Houston? Or should I say who watched the semi-final match Saturday morning?Â

If you did watch the match, then you know exactly what I am talking about. You know that it was one of the worst planned and executed playoff matches in American sports history.

Well, turns out Jozy Altidore, Clint Dempsey & Co. have about as much drawing power in Eastern Europe as Anvil. For whatever the reason Friday night I decided to stay up through multiple power outages for the MLS Western Conference Final between the Galaxy and Dynamo. During the match the thought drifted into my head about Saturday's USMNT/Slovakia friendly -- why wouldn't Bob Bradley simply roll Click to continue reading...

Pity poor Don Garber.
No, not because he has to put up with reporters all the time; he handles himself pretty well amongst the unwashed, freeloading, neck-plastic wearing keyboard bangers of the world:
YouTube- Don Garber comments nd gets into shouting match with reporter YouTube- Don Garber comments nd gets into shouting match with reporter
But so far, the Conference Championship weekend, one of the biggest TV ratings grabs of the MLS season, has been, if not a disaster then the next best thing to it. Click to continue reading...

Wow, I never thought at this age level that I would see a game like we had Tuesday night against OSA Inferno. These girls were big and not afraid to throw down! Literally within the first 3 minutes an OSA forward leveled our middle defender. She wasn't going for the ball in any way. It was a knee driven into the thigh and a hip-check as Taylor brought the ball to her right. Click to continue reading...

EDIT - BREAKING NEWS! Preki re-nominated for Hall of Fame! Feel free to factor in his performance over the weekend. (Yes, I know you're not supposed to.)
Now that I've got my head out of the oven, let's warm up with some trivia.
Depending on what happens Friday night, one bit of statistical weirdness will fall. Click to continue reading...

Clint Dempsey has scored from the spot for Fulham in the first half against Wigan, earning him a league turkey for strikes in three consecutive frames. That game is ongoing, knotted at ones.Yesterday, we had Leeds United's Mike Grella and Wycombe's Jon-Paul Pittman bag their first career FA Cup goals. Click to continue reading...

Well you wouldn't have expected this. Coach McKinna asked Kwasnic, Simon and Mijra to all step up and score and they did.
On Friday night, Adelaide's Coach Vidmar joked that his side needed to play 4 up front to score. Well, once his side was down 0-1 to Kwasnic's cracking half bicycle, Melbourne's Coach Merrick tried just that. Click to continue reading...

On Friday night in Asunción, adidas and the Asociación Paraguaya de Fútbol officially presented the Paraguay adidas World Cup 2010 home (or first choice) kit to be worn by Roque Santa Cruz and company in South Africa next year. La Albirroja (Red and Whites in English) are World Cup bound once again after finishing one point [. Click to continue reading...

Once again, I live in state where no switching of the clocks is required, so - voila! - we woke up this morning in Mountain Time. This means that the Big Ten Network match from Friday night - which I called with Kyndra de St. Aubin - airs today at 10am Mountain, Noon Eastern.

The twelfth round of the Torneo Apertura 2009 got underway on Saturday, and I'm afraid to say, following the midweek round of matches and the fact I was out on Friday night, that it caught me out. On Saturday, champions Vélez hosted and brushed aside Godoy Cruz, before Racing Racing! gave Atlético Tucumán [. Click to continue reading...

Guingamp travel to Laval on Friday night in an attempt to revive their season and pull themselves clear of relegation.

EAG and now just one place and one point above the drop zone and a defeat tomorrow night could see them drop into the relegation zone for the first time this season.

Laval have only managed one win in their last five games, that was a 2-0 win away at Havre AC.

I really have only one thing to say about yesterday's performance. My girlfriend and I were out to dinner Friday night and the topic of the Liverpool match came up. She asked me if I was nervous/if she should avoid being in the apartment Sunday morning and I (like an idiot) told her the following.

- Friday night = party night, and last night we actually had something to celebrate: Puyol has agreed to a contract renewal, finally! Formalities and official signings and whatnot will take place in the coming days, but the important thing is they've made the deal, El Capitan is onboard till 2013 and, hopefully, he'll be here till he retires.

My review of the last matchday of the Hexagonal will be late because of a take-home midterm that I have tomorrow and Friday. I need to finish preparing for it tonight, so I won't be able to write it tonight. Unless I finish this exam earlier, don't expect anything to be posted before Friday night.

Still no real news. I hate international breaks, I really really really hate them.

The blog has been dead for a couple of days whilst we changed the server over so there will be less chance of it cutting out on us in times of high traffic, not that this blog will be appealing to the masses out there.
