I Done Seen Everything

By: Scott | Comments No Comments

A bigger man than myself would extend some sympathy to the current plight of River Plate. Fresh off the heels of their latest championship, their inability to mesh their egos has led them to their worst season ever. Poor guys. Oh, wait, they can suck it. No sympathy to be found here. I did [...]

Stakes is High

By: Scott | Comments 2 Comments

Surely after an absence so pathetically long I would come in with guns blazing and summarize the last three months in great detail and with a solid repertoire of jokes. You haven’t been paying attention much, have you? The most important thing in this post is the change of theme from Rahsaan Roland Kirk to [...]

Easy Living

By: Scott | Comments 3 Comments

I am simply not giving up on the Rahsaan Roland Kirk dedication…but please do try and stop me; I would love some comments, by the way. Here’s a sad commentary on my life: my fianceé is living it up at her bachelor party and I am here romancing a bottle of wine and thinking about [...]

A Sack Full Of Soul

By: Scott | Comments No Comments

Looking to avoid Eight Belles’ fate

By: Scott | Comments No Comments

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 | Comments 4 Comments

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 | Comments No Comments

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 | Comments 4 Comments

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.
