Happy Motherfucking Groundhog Day

Rise and shine campers.

Yes, that's right, it's that one magical day of the year where we look towards a rodent to predict the seasons for the next six weeks.

This probably holds little to no sway in the southern two-thirds of the country or out on the West Coast where you fuckers don't have seasons. But in the Northeast where we're sucked into the deep dark black abyss of the mid-winter blahs, having a stupid rodent confirm our worst fears is something of a fucking tradition. Seriously how desperate for commercialization are we that we dedicated a day to a fucking tiny animal that we don't even get to eat?

So anyway he saw his damn shadow.

Watch the Bill Murray movie and fucking chill out, 'cause we have fucking Super Bowl XLII and Super Fucking Tuesday right around the corner.

Also I fucking hate Carlos Tevez.

We're All Just Fucking Sheep

Yeah that's right it's Monday time.

Somehow we all have to motivate ourselves after a weekend without any NFL glory to bask in (-11.5 to -14 depending where you look. Veeeeerrryy tempting).

There was plenty of real football to roll around in like a very happy pig in shit all weekend long though. With FA Cup Forth Round ties, a excellent EPL game, and the ongoing 'no guts, no glory' of the African Nations Cup.

For some reason while ESPN (the blight of fucking American sport television by the way, but that's a whole other post) the European Championship this summer, no one not even the Fucking Soccer Channel or Setanta (Say-tant-a) wanted to buy up the rights to the ANC. That's sort of sad because the games I've seen are above the quality of the Copa America from this past summer and maybe even than World Cup '0tt-6.

Anyway fuck, double fuck, and a motherfuck to you on a Monday.

Cole Crushes Everton

Joe Cole is the man.

There might be a better way to put this but the guy plays well everytime he gets a start for the Blues. Problem is usually he's behind Kalou, Drogba, and now Anelka too.

Tonight at Goodison Park Cole brought down a long ball from Florent Malouda (back from injury for the first time in nealry two months), touched it once to his right and blasted it on the half-volley past American keeper Tim Howard (probably the most rudimentary example of why the rest of the planet laughs at our football players). Although this fucker didn't help our cause.

It was a beautiful goal and one which gave Chelsea a 3-1 aggregate win over the Toffees. It puts them into the Carling Cup Final for the third time in four years.
