A Farewell To (the) Broom – Thread of HonoUr

The uncomfortable wait is over – Kevin the Broom has announced that he will depart City of Men.  Turns out, even he can’t overcome a major hamstring injury in his mid-30s.  From a big picture standpoint, example 1,000,000 of what happens when squad age tips over the continental shelf.  Much, much better (financially and competitively) to move on a season early than to wait a season too late.  But shit, football peoples is just as sentimental and wishful-thinky as regular assholes be.

Father Time comes for us all.

On the pitch, you get a meaningless Gooners at Toffees (7:30, USA), and some other assorted fecal matter.  Still beats the real world, but that’s a low bar to clear innit?

Later this evening, Final Four.  Duke is too good fot me to watch any of it, though.  Auburn/Houston was my predicted final in DFO pool, so I will hope for that anyway,
