Evening Links and Thoughts: Monday Madness

WVHooligan 09 November @ 07:38 PM EST

I won't lie to you all, I've had a case of the Mondays. As much as I want to post a big long edition of things tonight I just for the life of me don't have the time to do so tonight. Instead I have a couple links with very short comments on them.

McCarty Re-signs with FCD (link) Good stuff by Dallas to get one of their better midfielders back for next year.

Stories from Mitchell and Sterjovski pressers

Home - Football Perth Blog - Perth Glory News 05 November @ 06:30 PM EST
Morning to the blog, guys and gals.
Just a bit of breaking news, Jamie Coyne will not be going to Wellington after he was ruled out with a thigh injury. What makes this even more interesting, was that no one picked on this at yesterday's presser, the assumption was that there were no new injuries. Click to continue reading...

One leg too few no more. Playoff picks proceeding

Nutmegged 05 November @ 02:19 PM EST
So again, we take a look at the Orange Crystal Ball moving from the unidextrous to bidextrous results.
The first weekend, I have to say, was more than a little strange. From the sublime of the Dynamo/Seattle match to the ridiculous of Warzycha sitting Moreno AND Schelotto to the utterly predictable of a Steve Nicol-team being Lucy to the Chicago Fire's Charlie Brown to the completely surreal of the HDClasico draw.

Charlotte: Arsenal babe of the week

Arsenal Insider 03 November @ 10:22 AM EST

by CARL ELDRIDGE I've been to a good few Arsenal games over the past four decades but never have I had the pleasure to bump in to a Gunners fan quite as lovely as this buxom babe. More's the bleedin' pity!

So when this rather appealing snap landed at arsenalinsider we thought it only right and proper to share it with our growing army of visitors.

High Five: Lorena Bernal

KICKETTE 19 October @ 12:07 PM EST

Four months after birthing a mucho gordito baby, Lorena Bernal pulls the perfect look and life together as if it were easier than elbowing a random out of the way during a sample sale. We've hired her as our new life coach, actually. She has yet to accept our employ.

What's Mikel Arteta's baby mam been up to?

Night Out: Spurs Boys At Movida

KICKETTE 19 October @ 09:42 AM EST

Looking at these photos of the Tottenham boys out celebrating their win over Portsmouth this weekend, we were struck by one undeniable truth: shop assistants lie. Oh, how they lie.

They lie to the young, innocent and cash-rich when they tell them: yes, Mr. Keane, flesh-coloured satin is big for 'ballers this fall.

The MLS Hall of Shame: David Beckham

Soccer Tickets Online 28 September @ 07:00 AM EST

Background: You knew I couldn't resist, didn't you? I have not hesitated to criticize MLS, Becks, the Gals, and Alexi Lalas in the past. The Beckham Experiment has failed. The hypothesis was gravely flawed. The fallout will be crushing. MLS always said they would be different than the NASL.

Meeting Halfway

kenn.com 18 September @ 12:16 PM EST

There's a month or so left in the 2009 Major League Soccer season, and six clubs (Chivas USA, Houston, Colorado, Columbus, Chicago and New England) still have a chance to win half of the games on their schedule.

Don't laugh. That's more rare than you might think. In the 30-game, no-shootouts era (since 2003), only 11 teams out of 71 have won 15 or more games.

Monday Mocking: Chelsea Have a Laugh

KICKETTE 20 July @ 09:10 AM EST

Nothing like starting the week off with a site virus that chews through our precious man candy photos in the middle of the night.

Never mind, it could have been worse. We've fixed the problem and are mentally and emotionally recovered.

Not so for this dude who has to deal with three Chelsea boys chortling away at his man boobs and tricep tonage (or lack thereof).

POLL: The Great Austrian Summit

The Offside - NY Red Bulls 09 July @ 04:58 PM EST

Everyone knows that Agoos and Stover have gone overseas to meet with team ownership about the teams embarrassing season. But since they took their trip, not a peep has been heard back stateside about a possible resolution.

So I turn the forum over to the most brilliant Red Bull prognosticators out there - you guys (and gals)!

The MLS Hall of Fame: Kevin Hartman

Soccer Tickets Online 16 June @ 07:00 AM EST

Background: Well, I had to put one GK in my Hall of Fame inaugural class, and no one (in my opinion) deserves it more than Mr. Kevin Hartman. Hartman has been in the league since 1997, and the statistics he has put up since have been eye-popping. In short, there has been no man more successful between the posts in MLS history than Hartman.

The STO Commissioner Critiques: Overtime

Soccer Tickets Online 13 June @ 07:00 AM EST

Legendary Alabama football coach Paul "Bear" Bryant once remarked "a tie is like kissing your sister." Still to this day - because the coach was from Alabama - no one knows whether he was implying that ties were good or bad things. But, to this Commish, kissing your sister is always frowned upon.
