Man U 1-Barca 0, a.k.a. "No silver for you!"
By Kevin | April 29th, 2008I'm going to be brief with this one because it's late and my legs are tired from a long, cold ride home to watch a match that left me absolutely gutted. Time's up. No silver. I usually detest the idiots who do the post-game analysis for ESPN b ...
Barca v Deportivo La Coruna, or "She's warming up...." Saturday, 1 p.m. CT, GolTV
By Kevin | April 25th, 2008Well, her song isn't done, but you have to wonder. We're in third place, one point behind Villarreal and eleven behind the Evil Empire, with five matches left to go. That's fifteen points. Barring a massive collapse, alien abductions and the like ...
Barca v Man U, a.k.a. "The Big One" 1:30 p.m. CT, ESPN2
By Kevin | April 22nd, 2008You know why this man is smiling? Because he is thinking about getting in some Red Devil ass, that's why. Because this is it. The real deal, and he is the most pivotal player on the pitch for so many reasons, but most importantly, because they ca ...

By Kevin | April 19th, 2008Let's just give him a pedicure, a nap and a bottle while we're at it. Repeat after me: If you shoot the damned ball where the keeper is, he's probably going to make the save. Make sense? Feel better now? Good. Now. This match had the stink o ...
Barca 4, Valladolid 1, a.k.a. the "Flatter to Deceive" edition, a.k.a. "And then there were four"
By Isaiah | March 23rd, 2008Four points, baby! Four. Freakin'. Points. Kevin in the house again for Isaiah, wanting to wait until after the Evil Empire/Valencia match to post this match report, so that I could say, once again: Four. Freakin'. Points. Ray Hudson cracked me up w
Preview: Barca v Valladolid, or "It's go time, yo!" (12 p.m. ET, GolTV)
By Isaiah | March 22nd, 2008Spare some love for me, up here amid the winter wonderland that is Highland Park, Illinois. 11 inches of snow, kids, on the second day of spring. Yum! On the up side, I have all-wheel-drive and snow tires on my car. On the down side, nobody else seems to.
Valencia 3, Barca 2, a.k.a. "Well, we still have the double" edition
By Isaiah | March 21st, 2008Dammit, this one killed me for so many reasons. First off, I know why he did it, and I'll never, ever question his manhood, but Yaya wasn't himself. He took the needle (cortisone) to play, and tried like a lion. A healthy Yaya stops that first goal, but s
