As you likely know, it’s a phony-assed Big Greeting Card holiday this weekend. So, instead of paying exorbitant prices for half-dead flowers (welcome to supply vs. demand 101, but try telling that to your significant other when you try to get flowers a week early instead) or staying home in the dark cutting yourself, why not watch some EuroFooty instead?
This will be brief, as I hear tell Sill done writed up some bad-ass Rugby previews, which is like, even more Euro (and New Zealand-y) footy than the EPL.
The Saturday 10:00 window isn’t great, as you can tell by NBCSN highlighting Everton’s home fixture against the lowly Albion of West Brom. The Toffees’ very minor run (lucky fleece WOO) over mediocre foes has vaulted them into 8th, with a SHOT (hee hee, as the pic indicates) at getting back into one of the Europa League places, at least. Damned shame Top 4 is out of sight, but what’s done is fucking done.
The real action is Sunday Funday, when you have to get up even earlier to catch our friends Foxy Footy (fresh off their thrashing of City at the Etihad, which JUST DOESN’T HAPPEN), as they take on Arsenal (7:00 EST, NBCSN). Leicester are 5 points clear of both the Gooners and Spurs, who have a marquee showdown of their own, against 4th place City (11:00, NBCSN). City are 6 points back of Leicester, 1 behind Arsenal and Spurs. In goal differential, Spurs are first, followed by City, Foxy Footy, then Arsenal.
Buckle up, dickholes. It’s gonna be a fun late winter/early spring in jolly old England. And what the fuck else ya gon’ watch?
FUCK ARSENAL. Lucky bunch of cunts.
Hang on for the point at least, Foxy Footy. Do it for all the underdogs.
Just read that article on Manning. Disturbing. Fuck him.

If you don’t have better music to listen to (you very well may) I humbly and shamelessly give you this from last year. It’s potentially both self-depreciating AND self-aggrandizing! Or hopefully actually pretty good.

My daughter says Dick Vitale sounds like a guy in a nursing home who just keeps aggressively talking to you.
Scalia’s dead WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Wow. Cheering over someone’s death seems pretty heartless, Sill.
Nope!
The world is a better place when certain people leave us and holy FUCKBALLS is it a better place without Scalia.
Those who work their entire lives to deny other people the same rights they enjoy based on bigotry and hate are heartless.
it’s because I have a heart that I hate the bastard so much.
This is why you Hippos need insurance.

Barcodes taking it in the coal chute.
Did you guys hear about this: http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/king-peyton-manning-squeaky-clean-image-built-lies-article-1.2530395?cid=bitly
Holy shit is that a big fucking deal.
Dude’s scum.
The only thing about that article that surprises me is that it didn’t happen more often.
Who’s to say it didn’t? She was just the one who stood up for herself. I remember hearing something about a mooning story years back, but I never had any inkling that it was this bad, or that he and his entire family went out of their way to trash someone.
It’s sadly not shocking, and the fucker should be slapped up and down Main St for what he did here.
Goddamn it. I really wish there were fewer assholes in football.
Why would you act like that to anyone? And especially why would you act like that to someone on the training staff, whose job consists of looking out for your health? Kinda fitting that he’s ending up half crippled.
While neither got punished for it, at least Ben Roethlisberger got his case expose in the media. Unless some other media outlets do their jobs, this is probably the extent of what happens. At this point it would seem the only court inflicted justice would be a huge settlement in Dr. Naughright’s favor and a removal of this book as part of it. The media could expose it, as it is their JOB, but they will not.
Can you imagine if the NFL and their toadies actually did try and protect women, to actually discourage domestic assault, like there pink ribbon and PSA actions proclaim they do?
Just think if this was Cam; “On a very special 30 for 30….” “Next on Outside the Lines….”, etc., etc……
I was just coming over here to mention this. I also find myself in the ‘not entirely surprised’ camp. There is a highly manicured and sterilized feel to the Manning family. And, this only reinforces my belief that he’s been on PEDs for a while now.
Peyton’s about as genuine as a $3 bill.
Sheli seems OK apart from not being a very good sharer.
Manning Face is a lot like spoiled brat face…. While he hopefully isn’t a sexual assaulter, he certainly is used to getting his way. Fans of the team formerly known as the San Deigo Chargers will attest to that. Not a big fan of that family. But this is on a whole ‘nother level.
Due to my family’s Eli story I really hope so.

Not necessarily a credible source, but as many have said the same thing by their own investigations, it would seem valid.
I endorse those assessments of Valentine’s Day and capitalism.
The Champions League! Oooo Le Shempioooonss! /smashes Heineken against crotch 3 days later ’cause DVR fyeahhh!
I hope Bayern loses 8:2 #TeamHeynckes
I’m having second thoughts about rooting for Arsenal since learning Kroenke owns them. That’s more than troubling, and keep in mind I’ve rooted for teams owned by George Steinbrenner and Jerry Jones!
Gave it up for good. Fuck Kroenke and Arsenal.
SAINTS FOAREVER WOO
Isn’t anyone who doesn’t have a team (like me) just rooting for Foxy Footy at this point?
I have to go into news blackout in 20 minutes, since I’m at a college visit with oldest kid. DVRing Everton/WBA and State/Wake because I am a sad, sad man.
Do tell me the Manure final, though.
Sunderland 2-Manure 1
Merry Lupercalia everyone, Man U is losing late again.
5th is on the table for Everton and Soton. By goal differential, my Blues should already be there. Though I think saints’ form is better.
Would LOVE to see Manure denied Europe again. The hissy fits would be GLORIOUS.
Europe without Man U and Chelsea…

I didn’t know we were talking about our venereal diseases on here but I’m glad it’s out in the open now.
No one really TALKS about alternative therapies for gonnerhea like herbal supplements or top-level soccer. It’s all ANTIBIOTICS this and YOUR DICK WILL FALL OFF that…
