A soul-crushing performance at The Stadium of Light (cool name, bruh) brings our Foxy Footy palz right to the doorstop. They didn’t even need any help from Manure, which is good, cause they sure as fuck didn’t get any. The lead is 7 points with 5 games to play, or to look at it another way, Leicester needs a combination of 9 points gained and/or dropped by Spurs to clinch.

Proving once again the unquestionable superiority of Lesser Footy commentators, this was the call as Jamie Vardy put in the 2nd goal to clinch last week’s match: “Who exactly do they think they are, this group of honest pros, turned into superstars?”

GOOD SHIT.

If one gets up early, one can revel in the battle for survival that is Norwich vs. Sunderland (7:45, NBCSN). A draw would do just fine for Norwich, but the Black Cats MUST have all 3 points. This could be a shitshow, or it could be an emotional affair with both teams leaving it all on the pitch, and surprisingly watchable. Both are indeed a cut above the other two certain relegatees (Barcodes, Villa) who are just an absolute shower (as the Brits say).

The 10:00 games are all garbage again. You can laugh along with Sill as his Saints shit all over my injured, demoralized, terrible form Toffees at uber-hostile Goodison Park, if you’d like (USA). Sadly, it really is the best option out there. Manure/Villa snuff porn is on NBCSN. Serious.

Chelski/City is the 12:30 “big NBC” featured match, and it’s meaningful for City as it chases down Arsenal for 3rd place (better draw in CL). I guess this could be watchable, and is at least not el beisbol.

Leicester are home to West Ham Sunday morning (8:30, NBCSN), and this is alarm clock worthy. The Hammers have Europa League to play for, and are smarting from a home loss to Manure mid-week that knocked them out of the FA Cup. It’s “6th place or bust” for them. They need this as much as Leicester does. King Power stadium will be electric (no pun intended), and this may be Foxy Footy’s sternest test yet. If they get all 3 points here, I believe the race is over.

Should West Ham get a result…we have to wait to conclude the drama, as Arsenal play Palace next (11:00, NBCSN), with only 3rd place being impacted.

Monday Night Footy will be much watch telly (3:00, NBCSN), with 9th position Stoke hosting Spurs. It will be a tricky fixture (playing the shithouse Potters always is, especially for a finesse side), but if Spurs manage to pull within 4 or 5 points with 4 matches to go, they would still have an outside shot at getting this to the final weekend. When anything could happen, and the buttholes would indeed get quite tight.
