Month: March 2019

Medal ceremony (dramatization) As the triumphant shouts of victory ring out long into the night from Johannesburg to Madrid, those of us who were privileged “Stars upon thars”

Oh, I guess the Quakes really were going to bring in a Designated Player sooner rather than later. I'm guessing Lew Wolff was watching Mexico “Major League Faulkner”

After the FIFA Voting for Dollars sting became public, there was a lot of speculation about whether the fact that a British newspaper had orchestrated “Are the BBC and Andrew Jennings Going to Kill England 2018?”

It looks like Nestor de la Torre may not be picking his battles wisely. The FMF National team director went public earlier this week in “Burning Bridges”

Things didn't go well for Mexico in 1978​ A friend of mine asked me recently what my first World Cup memory was. It’s a pretty “Your First World Cup Memory”

Great article by Tom Friend about David Vanole and the bad old days of US soccer. Go read it, unless you hate freedom or something. “Myopic Thunder; or, E-A-S-Y, You Ain't Got No Alibi”

The power players in Mexican futbol have been dragging through and flinging so much mud over the past few weeks, it's nice to take a “It's Superclásico week?”
