7 wins in 10 cmatches! Except the part where it's actually 6 wins in 10 matches, 2 of those wins were against teams in England's lower leagues and only 2 of the wins were against teams in the upper half of the EPL table (and even those guys, 8th place West Ham and 9th place Swansea, barely squeak in).

Butler said in post game interviews he recognized that formation after getting burned on it in practice the week before. From a previous Deadspin post:

I had no idea that I was into muscular women before this.

Eh, this golf course is built right next to a nature reserve, so it's more like a bunch of golfers interrupted whatever the baboons were doing. And whatever they were doing, it would have been cool because baboons are 100% awesome.

Luke Donald: [to caddy] Did you see that huge monkey?

Jack Wilshere: "If I went to Spain and lived there for five years I am not going to play for Spain."

You should be able to play for your country of birth or the country of birth of either parent. Keep it simple and leave it at that. This 5-year residence stuff is ridiculous and cheapens the international game and turns it into more club soccer

Brilliant. Go with the spin, add some pace? Pow.

The Hepatitis A's

Unacknowledged problem Jayareff? The IRB (international governing body, meaning every competition everywhere must follow it) has concussion guidelines that say a player must be symptom free for 14 days before undertaking any exercise. After that, the fastest they can progress to playing again is 7 days through…

The real problem is that with Isco and Bale in instead of Ozil and di Maria, RM is surrounding Ronaldo with players who don't do the same positional (Ozil) or defensive (di Maria) work to accommodate him. Can you really give free roles to both 4-3-3 wings?

My opinion, Lloris.

"he smiles through it and finishes"

Greg, as much as I enjoy you as a writer and a fellow Arsenal supporter, I have to take umbrage with one thing: the two sides are not regarded as equals. Let's forget all the factors that we can't see, and focus solely on the almighty pound.

Can't you just see it: City travel to Moscow for one of those dark, cold, oddly-timed games and drop a couple of points . . . .

(You're surely right about Gala, but I wouldn't want to have to get a result in Istanbul. You?)

It was after his daughter died that he went from being just awesome Iron Mike to an actual sympathetic human being to me. I felt for the dude. That's got to be the most horrible thing in the world.

Levi's Landing is also a pet name for Bristol Palin's vagina.
