Handed to them on a golden platter by god, or at least via heated balls, Uruguay is without a doubt the biggest winner from December’s WC group draw. Those lucky bastards from South America landed the Russia group, while also being grouped with Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Look, don’t get me wrong, Mo Salah has …

It sounds like the build-up to a great joke. A Dutch, with some Australians, walk into a Russian Bar. After a so-so performance against Honduras for a spot in PutinMania, the Socceroos find themselves in a tricky group. France should finish first without a hiccup, but after that, the 2nd spot isn’t as clear. Don’t …
Sup? What? Why you looking at me like that? I legitimately told you that there was almost no chance I’d post your favorites teams fake rosters this week. And by your favorite team, I mean, the team you unluckily got stuck with. Because let’s be honest, we all wish we were born in Brazil or Germany, …

As you should know by now, 2 blogs in a row from me is almost indicative of a Nobel Peace Prize. In fact, there’s a better chance of Juan Carlos Osorio playing players in their natural position, than me going back-to-back on blogs. But sometimes, the supernatural happens. Just like my diet, which starts on …
Ahhh yes, my monthly visit to the site that I am ashamed of. If you have been patiently waiting for a blog recapping the transfer window, first, please find a hobby or seek help, and second, I just don’t see the point in telling you about another failed Arsenal signing. RIP Aubamayeng, it was fun …

pic.twitter.com/EAEMydTN7n — Everton (@Everton) October 23, 2017 You know, life moves awfully fast. One minute you change a culture, and establish a winning formula at Southampton, the next you have Evertonians at your feet, while simultaneously being a candidate for one of the most prestigious jobs on earth, Barcelona manager, and the next you get …
Hey, @SenorBautista (follow me on the tweety), it’s almost been a week since that tragedy. Now you decide to blog about the US missing PutinMania 18? Now that the dust has settled, and Americans have gone back to not giving a shit about soccer? You’re goddam right. It has took me a while to get …
USA, CONCACAF, and that mess that happened on Tuesday. Read More »
Well, maybe not in America, but if you have, even the slightest amount of love for soccer, yesterday is what you live for. It had it all, late goals, back and fourth standings switching, Americans being terrible at soccer. I promise, that’ll be the last thing i say on the USMNT, for I plan on …

Last night, Egypt clinched their ticket to Russia, and in the process, clinching their first WC since 1992. 25 long years of misery, war, revolution, and World Cup-less summers. Obviously, the latter is not even in the same stratosphere as the former. But watching the people of Egypt go INSANE celebrating the qualifications, you …
