Fingers crossed here for another good NFL day for the bird teams. The Ravens I had with a win. But the Cardinals? Wow. I just hope they didn’t steal the Eagles’ mojo. (Nah … an unworthy thought to be having this snowy NH Sunday.) If Ravens can bring down Titans, certainly Eagles can bring down [...]
The USWNT beat Ireland 2-0 in the final game of their post-Olympic tour. Here’s the write-up and the quote sheet from US Soccer. Kate Markgraf scored the first goal of her international career … almost on Boltgirl’s pace.
The Bobcats had a tough day down at Amherst. (Don’t worry- you’ll all bounce back!)
Meanwhile, in the WPS, [...]

I’m very excited to be heading over to HollyCornblog’s house today for a weekend visit. We’ll be doing some chores at the lake like bringing in the dock, bringing in HollyCornblog’s sailboat, etc.

Here’s a bit more from the interview …
Pressed about what insights into recent Russian [...]

I don’t know about you, but I find such milestones diminished by the hype … the marketing … the hoopla … the commentary. The events and the raw footage about the events is enough. The look on Michael Phelps’ face (or [...]

Unfortunately, USSF is not exactly being forthcoming on news of the USWNT vs. Brazil game. What I’ve been able to cobble together is that the USWNT won 1-0. The goal was scored by A-Rod. Abby played an awesome game … as did Boxx (based on some of the comments I read on BigSoccer). It sounds [...]
