I've been getting by with the extended highlights on Youtube each night (~40 min). This whets my appetite for this evening's viewing. There was also, speaking of disruptions, someone littering the road with tacks and causing around 30 flat tires in 2012. I had it in my mind that they abandoned...

Pretty sweet bullpen view. I advised our new closer to throw strikes.

Holy shit! I thought Shawn Kemp on the jumbotron friday was impressive. Dude just threw out the first pitch! Roof open and mostly overcast right now.

Last night and tomorrow.

There's a guy sitting in front of me with an Aaron Sele jersey on. Oh, wait? Sale? Ah. Huh.

Not watching the Celts: Shawn Kemp, just shown on the jumbotron. Number of Kemp offspring in the house: unclear.

Roof is closed, I noted as my Link train rolled past the stadium to downtown where we are frantically waiting in line to check in so i can get my ASS TO THE BALLPARK. Ahem.

I just clicked on the YouTube feed for a moment. 78,000 people watching, doesn't seem huge.

And speaking of Ashworth's shrewd moves, lots of credible (?) rumors that Cucurella is on his way to Manchester City. This also sucks--player of the year for Brighton this year, just a tireless runner and a real pleasure to watch.

Stuttgart misses a penalty but scores off a corner a minute later. Why the plain black jerseys for Koln? Did they have a Russian sponsor? Doesn't even appear there's a club crest on the shirt, unless it's black-on-black. Looks like 10 referees running around out there. Edit: Actually there does...

I prefer the schedule to be front-loaded with those road division games. It's always going to be warm in Miami for those guys coming south--I'd rather get as many trips to Buffalo and New England and the Meadowlands out of the way as possible before it gets cold up there. (Another...

Just caught up with the Brighton game and I concur wholeheartedly. Proud day for the club. I'm especially happy for Cucurella getting his first. That guy is absolutely tireless and everything he does is with great intent. Just a screamer into the top of the net. That's wins over Arsenal, Spurs...

His arm was pretty close but he also clearly leaned into the ball with it. Trossard puts this one to bed, one would hope. That guy tries to get too cute sometimes but he's a calm professional shooter. Three this month for him.

Mac Allister gaks a penalty against Wolves, then 5 minutes later gets another shot and puts it away. 1-0 Brighton in what's always one of the least aesthetic games of the year.

They actually tried to do this upon the move from Vancouver, but the league nixed it: https://www.cbc.ca/sports/basketball/nba-rejects-memphis-express-moniker-1.278813 More recently, the Memphis Express was the city's entry in the lone (2019) season of the Alliance of American Football...

First win in London? They've beaten Spurs twice at the Amex the last few years I believe. Nonetheless a nice turn of form for the guests, wins over Arsenal and now these guys after a lousy run of games.

Now that's how you reward your fans for slogging through 89 dour minutes of a 5:30 a.m. Mountain Time kickoff.

Brighton has been completely toothless for more than two months now. Nice calm goal by Trossard (clownishly open, sure), and getting that one erased is a great boost.

He also had weekly notes columns in the Washington Post this fall. I don't know if they were syndicated, or if he was freelancing for the Post, or what. This is sad news.

It's been a miserable month for Brighton, four straight losses, most of them poor. The ordinarily well-organized defense has struggled since Dan Burn was sold to Newcastle followed by an injury to Adam Webster, who's still out. Dunk missed a game in there too for a red card. Bissouma was...
