F.C. Barcelona will be taking on the NY Red Bulls this upcoming Wednesday. That means you get to see the phenom that is, Thierry Henry do what he does best. I’m not a fan of either club by any means; however, getting the chance to see Henry cannot be passed up no matter how much [...]

This is a bit late by other blogs standards, and more than half I assume most readers have delved into once or twice from grade school to the present. However, here’s The Art Of Manliness’ (The go-to site for classic know-how from the elder’s wisdom of life) guide to the 100 Must-Read Books. There’s a [...]

1. First of all, West Bromwich just got promoted to the Premier League after defeating Southampton. Congrats to them, hopefully they will continue on with success.
2. In other news, which is a bit more exciting. A post game melee erupted between Machester United players and Chelsea groundstaff. It looks as though words are exchanged, followed [...]

1. Yet again, I think I’ll lay the foundation for an ongoing series of vernacular photographs from the past century that are my particular favorites. Vintage photography has always interested me so it’s a likely step to include some of the best from sites such as Shorpy, Charlie Parker, Square America, Big Happy Funhouse, and [...]

1. Men’s Vogue has an article on a group of friends that annually head to the woodland areas of Wales for hunting expeditions. The pictures are beyond incredible and makes you wish an entire wardrobe of tweed adorned your closet next to your cockerspaniel and rifle. <Men’s Vogue>
2. Bob Dylan’s always been a mysterious type, [...]

1. I suppose today will be a media day, the first is the commerical from Sony’s advertising wonder awhile ago, that I covered. It turned out to be a great venture and commercial in the end.
2. The other is a one up to all the Euro football snobs who think their fans can’t be topped. [...]

1. Thierry Henry, who recently left Arsenal FC of the British Premier League is rumored to be joining the recently announced MLS team, Seattle FC. Henry has had some of the most spectacular goals from the past 10 years in France and England. Him coming to the U.S. would surely trump Beckham and his celebrity [...]

1. I ran across this blog today called Reference Library, and it’s full of vintage items from America’s past. This was my favorite item from browsing today. It doesn’t get much harder than this.
“I fear no evil, for i am the meanist mother fucker in the valley”
There’s also quite a few posts of some other [...]
Fuck off Chelsea FC, you aint got no history

1.
As you can tell, I hate Chelsea, but that’s besides the point. Today Barnsley, a Championship team in the English League, beat a top seeded London team. Odejayi put in a beautiful header to seal the deal in the 2nd half much to London’s dismay. Prior to this match, Barsnley beat out the [...]
