Soccer, NASCAR, F1 Fan Blog seasoned with Japanese Anime and served with Music and Beer.
Man City 2 Chelsea 0 The little horses ((also commonly known as Ponies)) trotted (pun intended) up to The Etihad today to take on the big horses ((Manchester City FC, for those you keeping score at THE FIREHOUSE, my favourite emotional cul-de-sac here in Mt. Horeb, Wisconsin USA)). Now I might (have)…
No, I am the King of European Hell!!! It’s tempting,especially for soccer fans, to feel that Sepp Blatter or Michel Platini is the King of European Hell ((and on some level, Blatter could perhaps be considered the King of ALL Hells)). But the honest truth at the end of the day is that Bernie…
Nothing that a little bit of aluminum foil can’t fix…. Back in 2000-2001, Jeff Green and Kevin Harvick were battling it out like little savages for the Busch Series Championship. By then, Kenseth and Junior had moved on to Winston Cup and and the Busch series was a battle between hardcore regulars, although there…
It’s Talladega, Baby!! And You Know What THAT Means….!!! It means that instead of what is normally expected of Talladega, we are going to feature and discuss the latest fall fashions. We will have plenty of corduroy pants, flannel shirts, fleece pull-overs, down-jackets, wool socks, plaid coats, blaze orange vests, camouflage hats, Aran Isles…
NASCAR Lays Down The Law (again) For those of you who’ve been lost in the spectral abyss of your divergent reality (such as it is) or too caught up in the secular notions of your half-poetic intellect, there was a little bit of argy-bargy at the end of the previous weekend’s Federated Auto Parts…
If I Knew Your Were Coming, I’d Have Baked You A Cake Like most of you, I would assume, I must have missed the meeting where several new, elusive and exceedingly obscure new elements were discovered and announced to the world. Some of these elements have half-lives that measure in tenths of milliseconds. I…
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…
“2012 revisited…..” Immanual Kant wrote that morality is not the doctrine of how we make ourselves happy. Rather, morality has more to do, all to do, with how we make ourselves worthy of happiness. As the year draws to a close, I wonder if by that definition, I’m immoral…have been immoral. No I don’t wonder…
Leeds United 1 Chelsea 5 Chelsea 8 Aston Villa 0 The orders were hooped up to Rafa Benitez somewhere between Leeds and Wakefield. I can almost imagine one of Roman Abramovich’s minions hiding the weeds across from Thorpe Wood hooping the orders up and getting his arm torn off in the…
Ah yes. There is an election coming up in that colonial outpost known as the USA. But y’all know where I stand on that, so no need for me to elaborate. I’ve already cast my vote, and I’ll be keeping myself occupied as I go about my business, waiting on the results from Veltins Arena…
All Of Europe Awaits The Results Of Tonight’s Federated Auto Parts 400 from Richmond International Raceway While I’m quite sure the lads from England were awestruck when their bus/limousine carried them through The Gates of Chisnau enroute to their 5-0 trompage of Moldova yesterday (as this is written), the real thought at the back…
Railway Park, Rochelle IL, 7/13/12, 5:42PM CDT In the little train stations in my mind, a few things seem remarkably better than I can recall them being of late, but there are still good reasons for me remain silent, and still, and hope no one comes around to give those stations a new roof or…
WARNING: This Blog Kills Fascists!! Instead of writing words to the effect of: There’s a better world a’coming…but I surely don’ know when. I don’t know if it’s been just the weather, or the emotional weather, the economy, or just the beat down broken spell of time that has been clutching my heart. But I…
