Yes, that obnoxious bleating Geordie will be creaming his knickers all over Real and Barca this afternoon (2:45 EST, BeIn). Yet another el Clasico, coming off the heels of a dull as dishwater Copa tie mid-week. Same location, even. But my blood is up, yet again, for the Merseyside Derby (Sunday,

Everton hosting Leicester right now (NBCSN), with my Toffees needing all three points, and needing them badly. I think we shall get them, but then again I am a moron. Next up is Arsenal hosting Mighty Whitey (10:00, NBCSN). Litre's boys have been a little more alive of late, but this

Rejoice, for the Merry Brits are bringing the sport lumber today! NBCSN has a quardruple-header, starting with Fulham/Wolves (NOW, nil-nil as the second half gets under way). This is followed by a terrible Bardodes at Redshit fixture (10:00), then two pretty decent ones - Brighton/Arsenal (noon), and Chelsea/Watford (2:30). Of course 10:00

Sorry, forgot I was doing this. As we speak, Palace have roared back to take a 2-1 lead on City. At the Etihad. BANANACAKES!! There is also Hammers/Moose Hornets and White Power/Barcodes on NBC Gold. United look for their new manager bump in the spotlight dance (12:30, NBC) in the easiest setting

Good morning fellow DFOers! Thanks to the good folks at Make-a-Wish foundation, your imaginary pal Wakezilla is hosting the Lesser Footy AM thread again. If anyone asks, I have tumorsyphilisitisosis.

Good morning! Your favorite fifth stringer, Tom Tupa Wakezilla, is filling in for Don T, Hippo, Balls and Litre this morning. I’m not sure why Don T is out, but he was screaming something about La Llorona. I couldn’t exactly hear Hippo’s excuse because someone was pounding on his front door.

Huzzah, booze and leftovers! And for the sporting day beginning at 10 EST like God intended (though I still may bitch a little re the lack of a 7:30 option). West Ham and Man City are your NBCSN option, and that should be a right bloodbath. Fortunately, you can watch Everton

Can Everton Finish Off Mourinho? (and other Lesser/JV Combo Thoughts)

Yes, it's time to do to Jose Mourinho what we did to Davey Moyes (what, like 5 years ago?) and finish the walking ded off. Everton (in 8th position on 15 points, +3 GD) only need a draw at Old Trafford to stay above Manure (10th, -1), and the Blues

Not that anyone would notice it in North Cakalaky, where it's been hotter this past week than July and August mashed together. Jeebus Tapdancing Christ.

Good morning, I hope you are well. I'm most likely already up due to a teething toddler and the fact that teh Mighty Fulham is the early game today! I will get to that later. This past week was teh start of the Champions League and we around the DFO futbol
