    The thought of him being mentioned for that job crossed my mind yesterday, and I laughed remembering this gem.

    All my friend friends who call me a soccer fag will never understand how happy I am to be as gay as I am. They'll never get these gems.

    None of my friends growing up had any appreciation for the game and I didn't play it personally. Just kind of found it on my own in my early 20s and have been hooked ever since. I follow it more than all of the other sports combined these days, it really has more things going for it from a fan prospective than any other sport on the planet.

    Played 4 hours of soccer today, was great.

    Love US pro sports but they don't come close to comparing to college football or EPL for me

    Chelsea has no Europe and 3 days of rest between games this week when most teams have 1, must be nice.

    It really is amazing that Pardew will probably get a job in the next month. Guys record the last 3 years has been straight shit. He's living off the fact Cabaye, Cisse, and Demba Ba carried Newcastle to 5th, which was 5 years ago lol.

    Finally back on healthcare (thanks, Obama), so I'm back to playing again come January 1st. This has been an annoyingly cautious and demoralizing year.

    Does he not usually get a good new manager bump from his new club? Just have to sack him once that ends.

    Palace definitely got a bump. I honestly don't think his Newcastle success at the start was due to a bump considering everyone hated that we sacked Hughton to hire Pardew

    I set my alarm for 2:45 to get a nap in, turned on the ol' stream, and had to rub my eyes aggressively in confusion at seeing the scoreline and how much time had elapsed.

    A simply shite first touch from Eriksen to push himself too wide to take a shot. That was a breakout attack and Christian screwed the pooch there.

    Well then it totally shouldn't have been a red. He essentially slipped himself up, fell, and sissy slapped Dele's ass, more or less.

    Harry Redknapp has reached out to Swansea to register his interest in their managerial position. Can't see why they didn't seal the deal right then and there.

    I don't think the board likes at Harry as a long term manager and I think they are honestly thinking if we go down which is highly likely they would rather have a Clement or Rowett managing and staying on. Or they are gonna continue to try for Coleman.

    Idk though Redknapp wouldn't be a horrible option at all. Thank God Giggs isn't an option.
