Happy International Friendlies/Useless Player Injury Day/Wenger’s Worst Day!! Unlike most Americans that have had their spirits lifted by the bounce back of the Dow, I’m having a terrible soccer morning. In the first international friendly of international friendly day, Korea lost to Japan for the first time in like a decade. Our coach is brainless, defense shoddier (i dont care if its not a real word) than usual, our key players are ill/broken/training for epl opening day, and Japan decided to hit three of the most infuriating fifa goals.
Later in the day, my young tigers are waiting to face a 50/50 mix of la masia and canterano trainees in Colombia. I guess the ball is round and you never know, but it seems like Spain is conquistador-ing at all age levels these days and the young roja are certainly imposing opponents.
To distract me from a demoralizing national scene today, I have decided to focus on the season previews of the EPL. King Keegan does his own preview of the season there and it seems he’s still butt hurt from when Sir Alex drowned Newcastle that one season. For those of you who remember, Keegan had said that he would love to kick United’s ass (view clip below), but of course that didn’t happen, because that can never happen. Apparently this stubborn chip on his shoulder has deluded him into thinking that our retarded neighbors will take the title this year. When will these idiots ever learn?
I also look forward to a US national squad under Jurgen Klinsmann that will play Mexico tonight. I’m still highly upset that he hasn’t called up “Big Omar” Gonzalez and instead is relying on Tim”godawful”Ream. Nonetheless, it would be nice to see fresh look to the USMNT.
The Beautiful Game
