    Global Football Odds & Ends

    That place is a total dump! Source: Y dale River!! ;) I actually went there for my first time back in September and the environment was extraordinary. Not my favorite part of town, but the futbol was on point.

    Hay Liga? All Things España 2024-25

    Agreed. It never felt like a makeshift backline for Los Blancos. Terrific result for Barca, who whacked Sevilla 4-1, despite a red card issues to Fermin at the hour mark. Sevilla unlucky not to get a penalty call early when the result was still very much in doubt, with Kounde clumsily bumbling...

    Tottenham Hotspur 24/25: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    The MF is real bad. Priority #1 this summer should be bringing in 2 starting MF so that Biss and Ben10 can be rotation players or sold. I still think the 10/AMF role can be covered well by Madders/Deki. Hopefully Bergvall and maybe Gray can push into the XI over the next 2-3 seasons, but no way...

    Blower, Pow, Cold Smoke - Skiing 24-25

    Dayum. I've tackled terrain like that, and it's hard work picking through and throwing your weight around for each and every turn (N.B., I'm on a board). The only saving grace I can see there is that it might be wide enough to take it a bit slower if necessary.

    Poll: Do You Ski or Snowboard?

    It's never too late! That said, I would consider getting one of those new tailbone pads they're making these days, or adding some additional fabric for padding in that area. You will instinctually try to fall down going forward, but you will invariably catch an edge and launch backwards and...

    Poll: Do You Ski or Snowboard?

    There's a new snowboard binding technology called FASE that is starting to make it to market and I didn't know whether to post about it because I get the impression that SoSH is like 90% skiers. So, I figured it would be fun and interesting to know who's riding what kind of planks. I was a...

    Blower, Pow, Cold Smoke - Skiing 24-25

    OK, this is a lot more reasonable than I expected! I love cutting a fresh line, but I also love tracked out pow and the lips it creates to launch off anything and everything. So yeah, those runs where you can see your S's are glorious, but the broken up snow is a lot more like a playground as...

    Blower, Pow, Cold Smoke - Skiing 24-25

    My kids are fiends for "treats" and I was throwing so much candy at my son last time out that he actually pumped the breaks LOL! He's 6 by the way.

    Those Who Stay Will be Champions: Michigan Football 2024

    Haywood announcing today. Sounds like Michigan is the frontrunner but FSU coming on strong. Apparently not an issue about $, but early PT. My sense is that if he wants to compete, he'll get a real chance to earn the spot at UM but if FSU makes promises AND bowls him over with $, then he's a 'Nole.

    24/25 Champions League - Now with More Inequality

    I'd watch Juve-Milan Home and home for UCL KOs! What I mean by that is, while I'm still not sure how I feel about the new format, this playoff round of the KOs should be pretty exciting. We know through results that these teams are all at least resilient to very good/contenders. Other than...

    24/25 Champions League - Now with More Inequality

    Just read up on the draws for the KOs and there's no country protection for the R16 and the 1/2, 3/4, 5/6, and 7/8 teams are also drawn. IOW, Liverpool doesn't automatically get the winner of a specific game nor does Liverpool automatically play the lowest seed to progress. Each club that earned...

    Tottenham Hotspur 24/25: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    Did you watch the game yesterday @Jimy Hendrix ? DOes that change your opinion at all? FWIW Elfsborg's wages are below that of the Championship and even the second divisions of Italy and Spain, but nevertheless, Scarlett and Ajayi looked good!

    Tottenham Hotspur 24/25: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    Looks like Spurs have agreement with Bayern to buy Mathys Tel for €60M. He plays his minutes split equally between CF and LW, with a splash of RW to boot. He's 19 years old and French. He's 6' and pretty good in the air. Short passing, dribbly, and finishing calling card. Not a great hold up...

    Jan 29-30: Safe European Homes

    They do tend to play fun matches though. A good matchup of styles. I also don't mind that 1/3 of these clubs will be eliminated this early.

    Global Football Odds & Ends

    You're certainly not wrong. However, I'd say Cruyff's impact on the sport was equally if not more so as a manager/tactician/philosopher/celebrity (ambassador of the sport), although there's 0 doubt he's a peak legend as a player as well (how many players have moves named after them??). I'm not...
