So Close…

Ugh. What a sickening end to an otherwise great opening match for Liverpool. Arsenal caught a lucky break in the 90th minute when a near miss against the post bounced off a diving Pepe Reina and into the net. Liverpool had been enjoying a 1-0 lead thanks to a beauty of an Ngog goal, despite [...]

Liverpool FC 2010-2011 Kits

This could be a big year for Liverpool. Rafa is out, Hodgson is in. Benayoun and (probably) Mascherano are out, but Cole and Jovanovic are in and so far Torres and Gerrard remain as well. The club could also be sold this season, as the American owners have been looking for a buyer. And to [...]

YNWA, Rafa

Rafa Benitez was let go as Manager of Liverpool FC last week. It was officially reported as mutual consent, but the prevailing thinking is that he was forced out for fighting with the ownership. Ownership that has been racking the club with debt and running it into the ground, unfortunately, not leaving much in the [...]

Liverpool devours Ham

Yeah, I know. That title was kind of a gimme, just like today’s game. Liverpool beat West Ham 3-0 on goals from Benayoun, Ngog, and Kyrgiakos (though technically the Greek’s goal was counted as an own goal against the W. Ham keeper). A victory is always nice, but it would be nicer if it mattered. [...]

I don’t like piano bars.

…but I am a big fan of this video. As are quite a few other people, it seems, since the clip has gained 3 million views in only 8 days. It’s a guy named Merton who is performing piano improv on Chat Roulette, the much ballyhooed chat site that randomly pairs you with other video [...]

Wigan?!

The good news is, Liverpool had their marquee players back. Torres, Kuyt, Gerrard, and Benayoun were all there to attack. Sotirios Kyrgiakos made his first start in a month on defense, and even Glen Johnson showed up in the second half. The bad news is, none of that mattered. They were out hustled and out [...]

Death on TV

Is it okay to knowingly broadcast somebody’s death on TV? I may be numb to most violence on TV, but something about showing an actual death just doesn’t sit well with me. I read online today that Georgian Olympian Nodar Kumaritashvili died in a tragic Luge accident. He appears to have been going upwards of [...]

Champions League here we come!

Liverpool beat Landon Donovan and Everton today, 1-0. It was a pretty dirty match, with Everton thug and Belgian Afro Ambassador Marouane Fellaini getting most of the cheap shots in against Liverpool. He himself escaped a red card on a stretcher, keeping the game total down to only two. Dirk Kuyt survived an early kick [...]

Beach Ball

Liverpool lost to a beach ball today, even though technically they were playing Sunderland. Not cool, beach ball. And not cool, Liverpool! Why do you keep losing games!? If I wanted to cheer for losers, I would watch the Rams.

AP Top 25

My analysis of the current AP Top 25 college football poll: Kansas (#18) Like Missouri, they haven’t played anybody, and they’re 4-0. And like Missouri, they don’t usually get any love. And just because I’m jealous, they still shouldn’t. Stupid Kansas. That is all. If you visited my blog on the 27th or 28th you [...]
