- You'll notice I have added an image to the top right hand column of the blog. It is a banner ad, but I am not getting compensated for it. OK, they did give me a t-shirt last summer but that was way before they ever approached me about advertising. Anyways... Normally I am not one to litter my blog with ads, but I make the exception for Pothunting because they're fighting the good fight. They don't want franchised, single-entity Americanized soccer. They want the world's game brought to the US unadulterated, like it was many years ago. Pothunting celebrates the hidden history of US Soccer through vintage club t-shirts. Check them out and support their cause. My personal favorite is Brooklyn Hakoah.
- I have spent the better part of a week working on a large post for another blog that reached out to me an offered me an awesome opportunity. The database I got access to is ground braking, and the blog's authors gave a relatively unknown guy a shot at a much bigger audience. I am so thankful for the opportunity they gave me, and I hope to not disappoint the readers when it hits the blogosphere sometime soon. I'll post a link and have some exclusive follow up material on this blog later in the week.
- Next up I'll be working on a few more posts for this blog. I plan on posting the first half of a two-part critique of the MLS playoff system, and will follow it up with a post related to EPL half time leads. I hope to have those done by the end of next week, which would set me down the path of about two blog posts per week - my sustainable target for the foreseeable future.
- I just bought Gaming the World: How Sports Are Reshaping Global Politics and Culture. After that its time to make the significant commitment to read The Ball is Round.
Hope all is well with you readers. I for one am a bit nervous about my Gunners' match tomorrow night. They better win it, or they face the prospect of missing out on Champions League knock out round play.
