Football is the world's game, but like any sport, it's appeal is not fully universal. The
Internet, meanwhile, has proven that two things are more popular than all else: pornography and
cats. And since mixing pornography with football would run against numerous public indecency laws
in various parts of the world, that means football executives have no choice but to add cats to the
game in order to push it to the next level.
I spent my senior year at a north Houston high school taking AP English despite no interest
whatsoever in the collegiate study of the language. However, I struggled through the course thanks
to a Scottish professor I still feel is one of the most memorable I have learned from. Did he make
the course come alive like a Glaswegian Jaime Escalante or Tom Schulman (Captain, my Captain!
Via Needs More Kittens, MLS decided that its annual MLS Cup arrival photo-op should include a
couple of scantily clad women at the side of the cup.
I'm a little confused as to why the women are even there. Because when they did the MLS Cup
arrival photo op in Seattle two years ago, it was just myself, Chris Henderson, and some
politician.

Well, thank heaven that's over with.
Chivas USA finished their season the way they had lived it with a static back four that gave
goalkeeper Dan Kennedy kittens against a Seattle Sounders team that was looking to settle in at a
stadium they hope to see a lot of in the next 30 days.
This was horrific "The Walking Dead" stuff and whatever Kennedy screamed at his defense during
this one was insufficient.

"Dzeko's been purr tonight, very purr. Which reminds me, I hate kittens..."
Anyone who happened to listen to BBC Radio Five Live's coverage of Man City's clash against
Villarreal will have probably turned off (as I did) around about the point that their insufferable,
jowly curmudgeon-in-chief Alan Green added 'orchestrated fan displays' to the long, long list of
piffling things he 'really hates' about football which came about five minutes before
kick-off (a couple of minutes after he'd already taken the time to add the City fans themselves for
having the temerity not to fill the completely fill the stadium on a Tuesday night).
More a tale of life than football, by Darshan Joshi
Idiots, some might say, believe everything they're told, mostly out of complete ignorance.
Idiots learn, though. With some education, even a dunce with the propensity to behave only in a way
befitting a Shakespearean jester will have in himself instilled the wit to argue a personal
theory.
Expectations are a funny thing. I expect my alarm clock to go off at the right time every morning,
and so far it hasn't let me down. I expect my kittens to use the litter ...
What we learned this week... England were so bad they made Wales look good
The Three Lions were about as intimidating as a litter of kittens but still won, while Mario
Balotelli played with his iPad on the bench, and John Terry dished out life advice

Last weekend Arsenal beat the soon-to-be Champions Man United. They worked hard, played well,
raised their game and deserved the three points from that game.
Yesterday, Arsenal lost 3-1 to Stoke City. They were careless, complacent, slipshod and deserved
absolutely nothing from the game.
And it sums this Arsenal team in a nutshell.
On twitter last week, I noted the Dynamo's reliance on their cheerleaders (the Dynamo Girls) in
marketing their Party Zone for the first game this year:
Which is eh, but not in itself worthy of a full blog post. However, Amanda at Needs More Kittens
points out that the Dynamo are swapping out actual female fans for Dynamo girls in their promotion
of a soon-to-be-released supporters section of their website:
Amanda:
So, at first I wasn't thrilled with this photo because of how it sexified the female
supporters - I'm a Houston fan and in Texian Army, and while there are a lot of attractive women
around the tailgate, I don't think there are that many half-shirts.

Polls polls polls, poley poley polls, I love polls...
No, wait, that could be taken the wrong way. Unless it being taken the wrong way doubles our
traffic. Because I'm a real whore when it comes to hits...
Wait, no, that sounds pretty bad, too.

Bale: big clubs want him, apparently Arry is scared
The Guardian's sports editor Ian Prior teased the whole of the football Twittersphere with the
promise of a "major – and boy do I mean it – football exclusive", to be dispensed today at
