gotta love this. the coach of real madrid was so excited at his clubs comeback victory in the opening match of the champions league that he couldnt contain himself. his dry cleaner might be less thrilled.
Based on the provisional F1 calendar released today, I may be in NJ on July 16.
when i had just seen a photo i thought this was a real court and not a very sound idea.
lots of big names on the leaderboard on nbc, serena in the finals at the us open starting in minutes on cbs and week one football all over my remote. if there were any soccer on today my skills as a watcher would be seriously tested.

(step aside, paul ryan!) tale of a marathon fabulist.

that damn "dock ellis pitches a no-hitter on lsd" again. i wouldnt post this but i thought the way its presented is pretty cool.
qatar "won" the rights to the 2022 world cup, then they spent $200 million to advertise themselves on barcelonas jerseys for the next ten years. after that they bought paris st. germain in the french league and started scooping up talent for them, and finally theyve launched a new soccer channel and have been aggressively buying up broadcasting rights around the world. for the us market, they now control rights to the italian, french and spanish leagues. not a bad thing on the face of it (for me as its only available at the moment via satellite) but i cant see with only one channel how theyll manage scheduling conflicts. all three leagues were broadcast on separate channels last year so there were games from each league broadcast live simultaneously .
anyway, the station is beIN Sports owned by the good folks at al-jazeera. i guess i should be happy that the new NBCSports channel wasnt in the mix.
