You can take the states of Meeeechigan and Ohio and use them exclusively for nuclear waste storage for all I care. Oh, and I guess to hold the collective ESPN commentator ejaculate. Anyway, Burnley host Man City to kick your Saturday off. You can watch while pretending to have

Due to family bullshit, much of my coverage was radio, and my TAEKS are evens less informed than usual. Caveat emptor. Oh, and HAPPY DAY AFTER OVEREATING SHAME, EVERYBODY!!! Crazy Eyez managed to go 31-37 and still stink up the field and single-handedly lose the game in Romonobyl-like fashion

Everything still sucks out loud and should be set on fire. It will all be ablaze soon enough, and Lesser Footy exists to hopefully help distract you at least a little bit until it happens. The early Saturday fixture (7:30, NBCSN)is strong and assy, with 6th position Manure hosting 4th

I have no words nor fucks left to give. Games of note: Baylor at Oklahoma (Noon, ABC/ESPN2) Scoring. Kentucky at Tennessee (Noon, SECN) Wildcats still have reasonable chance to win East with win here. Georgia Tech at Virginia Tech (3:30, ESPNU) ACC Coastal would be clinched with VPI win. I can't believe I'm tying

Fuck it, I am lazy and depressive by nature. My Lesser Footy sides have ass kickings coming their way, too. We get a rare 5/5 Saturday/Sunday split with the EPL coverage, and no Saturday early game. WEIRD. Be warned, another hideous international break is on the horizon.

Oh yeah, we is going full 80s cheese mode to illustrate the Man City/Arseholes/Shite three way currently in progress, with Chelski and Spurs jacking it just a point back. That is some parity going on. Did you own this cassingle? If not this, then which? I had several

IT WASN'T SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE THIS, PEP! 1 point out of a possible 6? Drawing at home to fucking Everton (no ofence)? But alas, here we are. Still in first, but only by a slender goal over Arsenal, with Spurs 1 point back in third. Almost

You want, nay, DEMAND wake until passout Lesser Footy...and by gum, you gets it today. Sometimes the breakfast fixture is worth skipping, but Chelski hosting Leicester (7:30 EST, NBCSN) is a solid opener, especially after such a long starvation diet. Our defending champion Foxes need to string some wins together

We have yet another dumb-assed international break (right after Spurs beat City to finally create some intrigue at the top of the table), so it's JV and JV alone this Saturday. Plus, of course, lots of ridiculous, faux-solemn requests for prayers and donations by your favourite ESPN/Fox/CBS teevee foofs.

Yes, this statement is certainly true if Lamar! (pictured above) runs train on Clemson, as he did on FSU. Otherwise, it may be a complex series of tiebreakers. Anyway, let's take thins in loose order. It's bad enough this post already misses Everton in Friday Night Footy

I had two more macro observations on the EPL season. First, if'n you take a gander at the table, everyone is right where a purist would say they should be. That is, nobody is higher in the table than a side with a better goal differential. I

Pictured is Ronald Koeman, in a rare smiling pose. Despite being unbeaten on the young season (with three wins on the bounce, after humiliating David Moyes on Monday Night Footy with some help from Big Rom), Big Ron is something of a perfectionist, always urging his players to strive
