Summary
Looking to avoid Eight Belles’ fate
By: Scott |What? it’s too soon? Fine, I got two-year-old Barbaro jokes that I’ve never been able to use. Anyway, the idea is “down the stretch we come”, etc. The season is finishing up and Argentinos Juniors is (for once–and probably last) in the thick of something, though it’s not the title.
Yesterday, 12 Men Grew One Sack (AAAJ 2 - CASLA 1)
By: Scott |No, Alejandro Delorte and Sergio Escudero will never have sack. Nestor Ortigoza definitely has sack, it just happens to make bad decisions, trip often, and be really really bad at soccer, just like him. Everybody else, though…gold star day!
Divergence Point
By: Scott |Tonight Argentinos (and I) will travel south to face off with Banfield. Anything can happen, really. Banfield will be debuting a new coach, Miguel Jerez, after a disappointing start to the campaign led to the firing of their old coach, the awkwardly pronounced Juan Manuel Llop (what?).
Finally, Bigger Things to Worry About
By: Scott |The team is coming together (somewhat), due to the two-match winning streak and the three-match streak with no losses. This past Saturday night they took it pretty hard to Olimpo de Bahía Blanca and actually disgraced themselves by only winning 1-0.
Babysteps (Colón de Santa Fe 0 - Argentinos 1)
By: Scott |At Least We’re Not Racing
By: Scott |Only one match has taken place since the last post and here’s the summary of everything you missed, Argentinos lover located so far away…
I Really Hate These (Independiente 2 - Argentinos 0)
By: Scott |These things write themselves but I am the unfortunate messenger, a Pythia communicating messages from the cruelest god of all: the god of sports fandom. And here I was, thinking I was just pithy.
A loss, a win, and a BIG change
By: Scott |Yes, there is a pun in the title involving our (least) favorite oversized disaster of a striker. That is most important and will come last. I have the obligation of reviewing what has happened over the past two weekends first.
We’ve seen this before (SM de SJ 2 - Argentinos 0)
By: Scott |There is no “news” to report. Nestor Gorosito, after 8 road matches at the helm of our beloved Bicho, has not won a single match. On the plus side, he only has to lead the team in to the bombonera to face Boca Juniors on Sunday…
