Game Time Decision has gracefully offered to take up the weekly comment recap posts that I used to do in Eventual Balls Thoughts! In exchange, and in light of the fact that Temptation Island is returning in February and will be airing on Tuesday nights, I will be taking over the Tuesday Open Threads until BeerGuyRob comes back and Temptation Island finishes.
In today’s installment, Litre-cola and I will take you behind the scenes of Liga MX. We will offer our opinions of each club and provide you fun facts.
Please enjoy and complain in the comments!
***
América
Balls: I cannot stand this team and their supporters. They’re the team of the upper class and the pretentious middle and lower classes. They think they can buy success. Their lady fans are hot, though.
Litre: This is a glory boy team and usually win, so hail Gamblor! If the ex Cheeto in charge liked a team it would be these guys.
Atlas
Balls: I have a soft spot for Atlas since they have always been the “2nd” club in Guadalajara. I fondly remember watching their games on Saturday nights in black and white when I was little. They were the last team to have their games air in color on nationwide TV.
Litre: Oh I really don’t like Atlas, they constantly kill my bets and usually play Puebla tough.
Juárez
Balls: On the one hand, it’s nice that Ciudad Juárez has its own team now. On the other, they have no history and, as an expansion club, they haven’t had success to create a history. They’re just sort of there for me.
Litre: I just think this is a dangerous city with a dangerous logo.
Cruz Azul
Balls: This used to be my dad’s favourite club until he realized they were never going to win anything, so he moved on. Their stadium used to be located next to the Plaza De Toros but they moved to Azteca and lost their soul. In a trip to Tokyo, I saw a Cruz Azul ladies’ bag at a shop.
Litre: Blue Cruise! I like this club as they always progress and then get their hearts ripped out! Plus, cool unis.
Guadalajara
Balls: Known for having only Mexican players, Guadalajara is the team of the people. To me, that means that a lot of idiots follow this team. Think of the Raiders in the NFL. They have a lot of cool fans, but they also have a lot of morons. Do not like them as they are very arrogant.
Litre: Chivas. I don’t like them.
Santos
Balls: Santos is in Torreón, Coahila, which is in the north of México. There is nothing around for literally hundreds of miles, so their fanbase stretches across a vast territory. They used to be good and have now settled into being good when you don’t expect them to and fucking up your quinielas.
Litre: These bastards have killed so many of my bets that I 100% avaid any game they are participating in.
Querétaro
Balls: Querétaro is a lovely town with an impressive aqueduct dating from the colonial times. Their stadium is quite nice, at the top of a hill. The team is nicknamed the white roosters or white cocks. Guess which version I prefer. They’re a middle of the table team and will probably be that way until Liga MX reinstates relegation.
Litre: These guys are the Southampton of the league. Why do they even exist?
Monterrey
Balls: For context, there is a BIG rivalry between México City, Guadalajara, and Monterrey as cities. El DF, as México City is called, is, of course, the nation’s capital and thinks the country revolves around it like France does Paris. Guadalajara thinks it is the country’s 2nd city. Monterrey, however, is probably Mexico’s most prosperous and modern city. The team has been a source of pride as it is a perennial contender.
Litre: Don’t have much to say about these fellows, cool logo?
Tigres
Balls: Did you read what I wrote about Monterrey? Copy that for Tigres and add to it the fact that on the pitch Tigres have been far more successful than Monterrey lately. They have a French superstar-cult hero in Andre-Pierre Gignac and will represent CONCACAF in February’s World Club Cup.
Litre: I am in on Tigres because if it is good enoug for Gignac, it is good enough for me!
Toluca
Balls: This is the team that I have supported since I was a wee tiny balls. They like to be called either the red devils or the chorizeros, which means chorizo eaters/makers. Guess which one I prefer? They remodelled their stadium and converted the unused corners into luxury suites, which I thought was a brilliant idea.
Litre: I don’t like em because Balls supports them. Pretty easy that.
León
Balls: This is another team that I’ve had a soft spot for. The city of León is beautiful and I love the team’s green jerseys. They were pretty good last season as they won the whole thing.
Litre: Love their unis, love the way they play and Hippo calls the Kings of Leon.
Necaxa
Balls: This team used to be one of many in México City but they ended up getting relegated and then moving to other cities. They are now based out of Aguascalientes, which means hot waters. They used to be the electricistas (electricians) as they used to be owned by Mexico City’s utility company. Now they are nicknamed the hydroelectricistas to combine the two.
Litre: I have nothing of substance to say about them
Atlético de San Luis
Balls: Atlético de Madrid bought a franchise in Liga MX and rebranded it in the Atlético style with similar colors in the same way that Red Bull has bought clubs throughout the world and branded them in its image. It’s relatively new in Liga MX and are still trying to get some successs.
Litre: By rights I do not like these guys as they are controlled by Athleti Madrid, who also owns Athletico Ottawa here in Canada so I don’t like them.
Mazatlan
Balls: Mazatlan used to be Monarcas de Morelia but then some rich people from Sinaloa (I wonder who they could be…) built a stadium and stole the team. On the bright side, the team is nicknamed the Bucaneros (Buccaneers) and their shiny new stadium is called El Kraken, so that’s kinda cool.
Litre: Balls has changed my mind on this one. I do not like teams moving as that hurts the fan base. They are called the Buccaneers? Purple and Black? Sold.
Pumas UNAM
Balls: Another “team of the people” except these people are the middle class students that go to or went to UNAM. UNAM is knows as a bastion of leftism in México, so I’m sure a lot of the DFOers may want to support this club. Their stadium is on campus and was used for the Olympics in 1968.
Litre: Pumas makes me money, do not trust them.
Puebla
Balls: This is Litre’s favourite team, as he will tell you. Their stadium is cool and just underwent a major renovation. You will find it hard to find better food than in the state of Puebla.
Litre: Yeah baby! Mediocrity is what I need, and what I get here. Cultured city with great food is all I needed to hear and Mrs Cola wants to head down there too. I do follow this team a lot. Balls has sent me jerseys, and I look up articles on them in Espanol and slug my way through it.
Pachuca
Balls: You could say that Mexican football was born in Pachuca as it is the oldest club in México. They used to be good in the 90s and are, to this day, the only Mexican team to win a South American tournament (the Copa Sudamericana).
Litre: I know nothing of them to have an opinion.
Tijuana
Balls: Their mascot is a gnarly dog breed named Xoloitzcuintles. They have cool jerseys and are owned by the Caliente group, which runs horse racing tracks and sports books throughout México. One of these days when the pandemic is over, I’ll head over the border and catch a game at their stadium in TJ.
Litre: I would love to head down to this stadium for a game!!!

There’s stuff on TV, I’m sure, but I recommend that you focus on commenting. It’s much more rewarding and will rot your brain a lot less.
I just bought Castrol GTX 5W-30 motor oil, Prestone 50/50 engine coolant, and Pennzoil Mercon Automatic Transmission Fluid on-line from Home Depot for curbside pick-up tomorrow, and I feel good about it dammit!
I can’t wait drink them all.
Nice! I tend to go with VAG-branded replacement fluids, because I’m too lazy to find which aftermarket brand’s worth buying (which reminds me – I should probably restock on brake fluid)
…And for everything else (and painted olive green!) – I just buy the cheapest drum of Castrol I can find XD
Now I’m just procrastinating work but had to share this one:

Speaking below about the Chicken Shack brought up this memory of my late 1970s. Bad ass tune. Christine McVie, later of Fleetwood Mac, featured on some of their albums. Really worth a listen if you like the git-tar music.

So found a new car show where some Midland Brit meatheads (Northerners? My accent identification skillz are weak for the UK, though probably better than 90% of Americans) buy total pieces of shit cars for under 1000 pounds and try to flip them for twice what they paid. They often fuck up but just as often triumph. The hair on one of the guys looks like he’s the bastard child of Boris Johnson. Lots of episodes on YouTube under Flipping Bangers.
I have watched that. They did a spinoff where they come over here.
I’ve only seen the Wheeler Dealer guys come over to this side of the pond and Goblin Works team from Manky land was over for an episode once. But I’ll keep my eye peeled. No one here would understand a fucking word they said, without subtitles.
Edit: and when I say “here,” I mean this country, not this website.
Speaking of UK TV shows, Mrs. Sharkbait and I have been binging 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown. Highly entertaining
Fucking great show. We have been watching The Big fat Quiz of (insert year), Jimmy Carr is host. So funny.
We started with that. Fan fucking tastic

I’m still in Phys Therapy for my foot surgery. Had a appt scheduled for yesterday afternoon, but got a call in the AM that the therapist I have been using all along was exposed to the covid. Had to reschedule pending his testing results, but got the word today that he tested negative. yay.
Apparently all of Vegas’ coaches are out for Covid caution, so their GM is behind the bench tonight.

So, is the use of “Loopmas” instead of “Loompas” some kind of obscurantism us boomers are not supposed to get? Because it’s working….
Jets just scored 3 goals in 2 minutes. I approve.
Meanwhile, New York gave up 2 in 1:12 to lose the game.
From the twitter machine it seems the Leaves are killing the Ice Stampeders.
You can’t fool me, I know the NFL season is over and the Jets didn’t even make the playoffs.
The more you look at it, the life of young hockey players moving around, living with strange families, lives controlled by billionaire masters at the expense of their bodily good, seems a lot like human trafficking. We must band together and stop this sick Canadadaian practice before it’s too late!
I dunno, this GameStop stock thing is all over the internet leading me to believe that you should stay a million miles away from it.
The Wall Street big boys never lose and they are getting ready to shear some sheep.
That’s what I said earlier when it first came up, lol – the only reason this is still a thing is that most day traders are clueless and with 0 impulse control, so when they heard that the shares are going up – the new waves provide enough fresh cash to prop up prices (after a dip)
Basically – it’s the same reason why cylically a volatile currency like Bitcoin goes through a boom and bust cycle 😉
Wait, noone got elected to the baseball HOF? Not that I generally care about HOFs, but … that’s kinda retarded, when you need to use basically every opportunity to advertise your flagging sport…
Given some of the MLB scandals over the last couple decades, they should open a Hall of Shame. Your suggestions as to location are welcome.
Cleveland is always an option for shame
The already have the Cavs, Pauls, Indians … they’re suffering enough
Never been to the R’n’R HOF there, so cannot pass judgment on that. But Jann Wenner is an asshole, so I will pre-suppose. Also, river in flames (yes, it was 50 years ago, i know. So was Santa being pelted by Philly fans, but everyone remembers that, too).
I drove past the R’n’R HOF once.
I went in. It was neat for a couple hours. ZZ Top’s car is there so I enjoyed that.
Which car? the one from Eliminator? Gibbons has several more.
Yes, that one. The doco on ZZ Top I watched when the pandemic began was great.
Here is how the R’n’R HOF appeared as I drove past it:
Man, I dug that documentary. I’ve been a big fan since 1974 or so. Along with all the shows I saw stateside since then, I went and saw them in Milan back in about 2004 with an Italian/English buddy of mine. They played a lot of the bluesy stuff from the 70s and his mind was blown, only having ever heard the synth stuff from the 80s.
A-HOW-HOW-HOW. (I sat site geologist on a number of oil wells in and around La Grange TX back in the early 1990s, one just down the road from the Chicken Shack).
Aka Cleveland’s Louvre
It’s been less than a year according to this article 😀 As for the RnR Hall Of Fame – knowing what shitshow of a selection process they have – you might as well use it to store nuclear waste and no one would bloody notice 😀
Is ELP in yet? No? Then I’m still not going!
Keith Emerson had the largest organ in the world!
I saw them headline over Wishbone Ash at the Swing Auditorium in San Bernardino around 1975.
Yucca Mountain – if you get elected to the HOS, you get insta-freezed with some LNO2, then get encased in a spare fuel rod casket and left to marinade over the next 10 000 years 😉
When I was working on my geology MSci, I applied for an internship at Southwest Research to work on the Yucca Mtn disposal project (this was 30 years ago). Biggest attraction was a summer doing research in the Aegean, island of Santorini. Identical geologic regime as Yucca Mountain. Regrettably, I came in second place and did not get the position.
… that’s why you need a rock and no witnesses! After all, if the first place suddenly becomes vacant, because of a polite “conversation”, then … *shrugs*
Dude, I am not the Talented Mister Ripley… 🙂
Then you should’ve outsourced, because me and my better half had our honeymoon at Santorini and it’s worth every

Ok, everyone, we need more contributors to quotables, so get your ass over there: https://www.doorfliesopen.com/2021/01/26/2020-quotables-conference-round-submissions/
How do you imbed the pics in the comments? I have asked for years.
I open the images blax includes in a new tab, copy the link, paste it into my comment box, and then make with the funny. Or not.
Or just right click, copy image address on Chrome/Edge….
Thank you all.
Press on the gif and copy, then type and paste
Right click on image, left click Copy Image Address from dropdown menu, go to your post comment box, and hit Ctrl V. Add text as necessary.
I don’t bother, because my contribution would invariably be the generic one-size-fits-all New Yorker cartoon caption: “Christ, what an asshole.”

And sleep is officially cancelled for tonight.. I was looking at some tactical maps of Berlin left from my granddad (stuff that I hadn’t looked at since I was a kid) and aside from knowing (thanks to not outrunning my conscription notice in the old country, then reserve duty over ‘ere) how much each of this scribbles cost in human suffering … I just realized that the spots and dried “something” is more than likely blood…
Fuck yeah, you are usually in the morning futbol clubhouse no sleep for you!
Yeah, but if I don’t get my 2-ish hours a day, my eyes become a bit photosensitive, but at this point .. I legitimately can imagine the carnage
Time to killjoy this bish – that’s probably a generic radio mast (probably with some cell network aerials on it as well that are obscured by its darkness and overall potato quality)
Also the red light isn’t to warn aircraft off – it’s to tell them “ACHTUNG, ‘RONA VARUSING IN PROGRESS”
McBain: Let’s Get Silly is a criminally underrated movie.
the 5G/RONA connection is no JOKE, damn it (translation – apparently some fucksticks burned the 3G aerial near my home in Dublin…)
Also ^ I’ve seen this meme before but I don’t get the reference – is that very early Family Guy or somethin’?

Doing a clean install on my old gaming laptop while enjoying how much better Civ runs on a faster machine and converting a handful of new kindle books to pdf. I feel more competent than I have in a while, funny how I don’t get to do any of the stuff I’m good at in my job
Yeah, funny how the world works, lol – my job began as ^ and working up the corporate ladder without ONCE using my actual education (dual majors in economics and politics, with a minor in history…)
Thank bloody Christ that work comped me to get some formal education in CompSci as well, lol
Also – friendly tip – the cheapest AND best massive improvement you can do to your old gear is to dump the hard drive it inevitably has and put an SSD in its place 😉
I’ve built my own desktops since high school, so those are all in good shape drive-wise. Not sure on my laptop, good thing to check!
At least on the laptop side you also benefit from the no moving parts (which improves drop safety and correspondingly – the pucker factor when something inevitably clangs), depending on the hardware an SSD will also improve battery life, because even if the stated power levels are similar (or slightly higher) than traditional drives, the instantaneous seek times, better transfer rates and the lack of platter ramp-up mean that the device is outta powersaving mode for less time

Just a heads up – I’ve got a post about the GameStop stock action coming out tomorrow morning. Come join in for the discussion. We can watch investment houses get blown the fuck up in real time.
Or rather listen to the waves upon waves of idiots with RobinHood (or however that’s spelled) and other daytrading platforms get assfucked, while a few weaponize their stupidity (which isn’t a bad thing per se, judging by the initial 20k I put in @78 and change a share that I offloaded at 208 in after-hours trading 🙂 )
… is gamestop going outta business?
No, it’s getting pumped by idiots at /R/WallStreetBets , who somehow mistook good (and barely good at that) news for somehow meaning that a firm in a declining market with even worse sales turning a corner 😀
It’s a joy to see, tbh (especially when you use that same stupidity against those same people 😀 )
I don’t know shit about video games, but with the advent of downloading and streaming and stuff, isn’t GameStop going to go down the same depressing road as Blockbuster and Radio Shack?
They’re a bit better positioned, because they have the collectible market to prop them up for a bit longer, but it’ll never be as big as before. Hell, with the new optical disc-less consoles, one of their biggest income sources is gonna get yanked from under them (second-hand game resale) , that’s why it was an amusing day to ride that bloody hype all the way to the bank (it regularly dipped and rose when the next wave of lemmings saw the “OMAIGOD, THIS STOCK IS GOING THROUGH THE ROOF” coverage, didn’t ask themselves “Why!?” and just ploughed their own money into the furnace
Finished above 200 after hours today, hilarious.
Keep an eye on it and if it plummets under say 80… you may wanna give it a spin 😉
Alternatively – if you’re already daytrading you can set up conditional sales and buys (always do final confirmation, though, because eventually this baloon will pop and a lot of people will get assfucked so it’s best to avoid being one of those 😀 )
oh my…

Since 80s medium-soft rock is being discussed, thought I would mention that Pretend Man City has an academy lad (making his first Pretend Premiership start) with the last name “Browne” who I have nicknamed Lawyers In Love.
That’s nothing – my pretend UCD has Page, Coverdale and Lin-Turner (close enough Joe Lynn Turner to count) in my starting XI 😀
If he does poorly, you can change that nickname to The Pretender.

Winnipeggers have “players” named Tucker Poolman, Marko “Book em” Dano, and Pierre-Luc Dubois on their injured list; I suspect these are all made up men in what appears to be an immigration/prescription drug scheme. I will not cease my investigation until the truth is found or I am granted a lifetime pass to all of Winnipeg’s parks.
The best Winnipeg name is Connor Hellebuyck by far.
It’s litre_cola, you know this.
Oh of course . Best Winnipeg Jets name is Hellebuyck
Assiniboine Park is great in the summer!

Hard to believe that someone left a dildo out in the rain though
No, she should have written “in the snow.” And really, who amongst us has not lost a dildo in a snowbank? They can really penetrate deeply. In the snowbank, I mean….
I miss Dildo. He was a good dog.
Also, it’d appear that today’s not Tuesday as I thought (it’s 2:26AM on apparently the 27th), so I missed an Arsenal game (again), so… uhmmmm… should I look up the score or sit here in blissful ignorance of what I’m assuming is just another proud instance of us colossally shitting the bed?
Since no one reacted to this, I’m starting to think that the sports update I heard on the radio about a 5-0 thrashing was against us…
You put SOTON in its damn place!
I smell a trap – you just want me to look up the score and get depressed… Fuck no (before I get a glass o’ the cheap’n’gUd stuff)
This is a very anti-SOTON site for reasons that shall not be discussed. I would nae lie about that.
We actually won?! I’ll drink to that another couple of fingers of Black Bush (it may be cheap, but it’s fucking good,yo)
My dumb 2 cents is in and post updated. Sorry Balls, I should lay off the weed. (I won’t)
Lay … off… the … weed…
Oh, okay then. Alert, we’re scrambling the ready CSAR force, because litre sent the under duress code!
During dry January I havent snapped or maimed anyone due to weed. Thats a victory for mankind and my liver.
lol, you’re taking it better than my boss (though he’s taking a lockout-January.. with dranking) and he accidentally let slip a “I haven’t shoved a screwdriver up my nose not nearly enough to agree with something this profoundly stupid” 😀
…that’s why you use a PTT with a foot pedal when you don’t want a “I want an honest opinion” backfiring on ya 😀
Meanwhile – the guy with the tank barn (and high-functioning insomnia) is taking his days cheerfully one at a time 😀
I think it makes the first few comments really funny! Thanks for joining me on the Sexy Mexy fútbol train!
One of my kids finally started Breaking Bad. Enjoy the chance to over-analyze it all over again.
I’ve still never watched that.

Dude did take on Godzilla, though.
And died.
Big fucking deal, all the US Godzilla movies were shit. In fact, one of them had the ultimate litmus test – Charles Dance in a barely more than cameo role casually being the SOLE bright spot in a movie 😀 (Look up his filmography, that’s basically the kiss of death for many a movies XD)
Whoa whoa whoa, I hope I didn’t give the impression that I though it was a good movie! Your criticism of US Godzilla movies is spot on…
Maybe this time our favorite skinny black haired friend will survive.

Spoiler Alert!
It’s been ages, man.. You’ve got to face the facts – Aaron Paul did in fact star in a movie adaptation of an EA game… and it was …. uhh… (anyone remember what the movie was about? I know that I saw it, but … I don’t remember anything from it)
He probably was seen by more people when he was promoting that Need For Speed movie while taking a lap as A Star In a Reasonably Priced Car on Top Gear then actually saw the film.
I disagree – that movie’s already down to bargain basement licensing rights level, judging by how just before the holidays it was played by 6 separate (not timeshifted/same network) channels on one night 😀
There’s bound to’ve been more than enough people that mistook that movie for one of the Fast franchise that stuck out long enough to go with a resigned “Fuck it, I’ve already started it” mentality 😀
Well, I didn’t follow the film’s viewing trajectory, but I recall that it was in and out of the theaters fairly quickly. Dazed and Confused and The Big Lebowski performed poorly out of the gate/in the theaters, too.
Neither did I, lol – I only tend to notice if either a film’s getting repeated ad nauseam (like this) or when a non-straight-to-DVD movie from the same year shows up on a basic freesat/freeview/dtt channel 😀
don’t underestimate his early work on network TV

The only way you’d know who I was talking about would be if you’d seen the show already, checkmate!
Or … and I know it’ll come as a shocker to you, I just picked one of the three people I know from the show that I’ve picked via pop-culture osmosis – Malcolm’s Dad, “Go-to decent bad guy on basic TV… also that Mylene Farmer song” and the guy I know from the XLIX coverage, “MAGNETS, BITCH” meme and Need For Speed
I am in fact planning to watch the show as soon as my blu-ray boxset arrives, tho, as I’ve heard really good things about it and some sort of prequel for it
She asked me what season Jane was in, because that’s when it really gets good. That death scene is as good as acting gets (both her and Malcolm in the Middle dad).

I saw him with Los Straitjackets (they of the Mexican Wrestling Masks) as backing band at Antone’s in Austin a couple years back. I’m pretty sure they played that song.
I had a Straightjackets CD! Man, I must’ve annoyed at least six coworkers with it.
I don’t particularly care about who gets into various Halls of Fame, and I can see the problems with taking off-field behavior into account, but that doesn’t stop me from enjoying a little schadenfreude at Curt “I think journalists who write stories I don’t like should be lynched” Schilling getting all snippy that a bunch of journalists didn’t vote for him.
NSFW due to language.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nG6Q7MqVCo
Fuck him.
These dumbass sports writers who want to assign a morality to a Hall of Fame. Bitch, it ain’t how moral you are. Look at the a-holes in the HOF already. It’s how they played.
On that note, Schilling is a total asshole. I personally don’t care to hear from him in any way, shape, or form. He can travel to China and get the best COVID tests every day if he wants (see below a few replies to tonight’s OT). As long as I don’t have to listen to him whine all damn day. What a snowflake.
I just want a shirt that says WHORE or BIMBO on it, so I can stay on brand. Is that hard to get with soccer jerseys?
Maybe these guys sell shirts?
I mean, they do, sort of.
She started out as a football site but now the reason why I love this place so much is that as a dumb putz, I can learn about books, snacks, soccer, destinations, tanks, the odds, photography, food, politics, films, submarines, porn, learning how to spell Proto Riko, edibles, alcohol, the law and so much more! I swear I’ll stay here until the bitter end/when it becomes mildly inconvenient!
