The Green Bay Packers have opened training camp Yes. It’s that time of the year. The Green Bay Packers have reported to training camp at St. Norbert’s College in De Pere, Wisconsin. So far, so good. This will most likely be the only time I will mention or discuss the NFL on this bloog…
Knights of Columbus, Madison WI 7/20/2013 Since I can’t ever seem to think of anything clever to say about our Dairyland BJD Meetups, I won’t even begin to try. I also, this time, will (try) not (to) mention anything about the weather, the phases of the Moon, the British Open, The CONCACAF Gold Cup,…
USA 4 Cuba 1 If I ever begin a post where the first sentence either mentions, or references, or quotes either of John Stuart Mill or Matthew Arnold, then it’s time for you to run for the hills, the mountains, the rivers, the valleys, the great and terrible sea, as fast…
Fløtugerði Fuglafjørður, Faroe Islands ÍF vs. Linfield 7/3/13 13:45 CDT The future snuck up on me yesterday. With the Confederations Cup done and dusted, with Brazil whipping the hell out of Spain 3-0 at the Macaranã, I figured that there wouldn’t be much more for me to think about, football-wise, while waiting on Jose…
Andrey Arshavin fans await his return to Russia… Eugene Cernin, for those of you keeping score, was the last man to walk on the Moon. As for the last one to walk on Mars, well, the jury is still out. But in the meantime, Andrey Arshavin is heading back to Russia, to his old…
Idle Speculation Is About To Start! It’s Like A Dream!! Speculation is a constant in sports journalism. Who will win the focking ballgame being the most common form. For example, the Chicago Blackhawks took game 5 of the Stanley Cup Finals last night by a 3-1 score on 2…
West Ham United and the Oakland Raiders Attempt To Sneak Into The Playoffs It’s Silly Season in the English Premier League. The transfer window opens July 1st, and teams are making their big brave plans. And from the look of it, everyone, and I mean EVERYONE is gunning for that 4th place finish ((well…everyone…
Hey LOOK!!! It’s David Luiz!! This is usually the stage of the game where I have to think of something clever to say. But good luck with that one on the day, I guess. We’ll ((or I’ll)) have to see what happens. If I can figure out a surefire way to hook up…
Coach K calls for 4 minutes of Fergie Time!! For those of you have been lurking in the nooks and crannies of Toby’s Place in Blanchardville, Wisconsin. Or for those of you at the Firehouse Bar & Grill in Mt. Horeb, Wisconsin, where my words flow like a waterfall ((just try and stop a…
It’s Talladega, Baby!! And You know what THAT means…..!!!! It means, as you should know by now, that we are going to engage in a gentlemanly discourse about soccer, Formula 1, the Stanley Cup playoffs, the National Basketball Association, the World Rally Championship, and the applicability of certain Japanese Magical Girl Anime show mascots…
Chelsea 2 Swansea 0 I honestly meant to get this done over the weekend, and here it is Wednesday already. So I’d better get at whatever it was (or is) I was (or am) trying to get at, besides the usual dull tedious shite, of course. I always aspire to write something…
Joey Logano Wins The Masters (picture not related) Of all the homo-erotic metaphors out there, the most compelling and dangerous ones always seem to involve guns. More people were murdered with guns in the past week than were killed in the Boston Marathon attack. They will continue to be murdered at an alarming rate…
Sunderland FC has a new manager Like many people, I wonder what was going through Ellis Short’s mind when he hired Paulo Di Canio as the new head coach at Sunderland to replace recently deposed Martin O’Neill. How well was Di Canio vetted for the position? Did no one point out to Ellis Short…
USA 1 Costa Rica 0 Someday, millions will make the claim that they were there for that incredible game in Denver Friday night. Especially if Team USA goes on to win, or at the very least contend mightily, for next year’s World Cup in Brazil. I might even be tempted to say…
