New feature: Argentine round-up
By: Scott |For the first time, I wrote a post only to have the contents disappear when I pressed “Save”. I wish I knew how to recover it, because it was quite brilliant. Here it is in truncated form:
Game on!
By: Scott |It’s back! Finally, after two seemingly endless months of nothingness, our brave boys will be taking the field again tomorrow afternoon for the first match of the Clausura 2008 in San Juan against San Martin de San Juan. It will be a riveting attempt at payback for a highly disappointing 1-0 loss in [...]
Remember us? Well, we remember you.
By: Scott |We’re back after a lolng layoff. Nothing happened while you were all out living your lives. Congratulations on any promotions, engagements, births, etc. Argentinos Juniors fell HARD again Estudiantes de La Plata two weeks ago…3-0. Yeah, I sort of went into hiding
“Pelé’s Brother”
By: Scott |Olé, the sports section of the newspaper Clarín, did a very nice write-up on our boy Pereira. Almost perfect, except for the fact that…it’s also racist at times.

By: Scott |“What’s that? The fans are unhappy? What should I do?”
Let me say first that I wish Ricardo Caruso Lombardi all the best in this life. I hope his health improves and he lives a long and happy life.
Today he quit, citing a serious health concern as the reason. I have often [...]
Comfortably Numb
By: Scott |The title refers not only to my feeling of today’s match, but also the team’s approach to said match against Huracán. I had a hard time getting my spirits up for it, and it would appear that a majority of the team shared my sentiments (I’m offically dialed in!!! I know how the [...]
Now is the time for introductions
By: Scott |Welcome to Argentinos Juniors Offside. Today marks the inaugural post, so there is much business to attend to.
First, a little about the authors, just so we won’t have to spend any time on this in the future: my name is Scott, an American living in Argentina. I have had a life-long love [...]
