I make a whole big statement about starting to post again and then promptly get felled by an epic bronchial infection that has had me flat on my ass all week. Typical. Anyhow, I’m slowly starting to come out of it now so I’m going to try again! There’s the bulk of a week to catch up on so I’ll do a drive by. Continue reading
The Week So Far…
26 JulPrep Begins For Alavés & Benz Re-Ups
21 SepYesterday’s match was a case of goalus interruptus. We got so very close to the net and couldn’t bury it. But props to Adan for a very strong performance. It sucks when we’re denied, but since he was one of our own, it vaguely eases the sting. I’m always happy when former players do well, just not against us, please! Betis worked their asses off, no doubt about it. Continue reading
Updated: I Hate Transfer Deadline Day
2 SepI tried to stay in bed and offline for as long as humanly possible, but I have to put on my big girl panties and deal with it. It’s Transfer Deadline Day. That said, I’ve made lunch and dinner plans so I get a respite from staring at my screen and cursing.
Feel free to discuss the day’s inevitable fuckery in the comments section. I’ll update the post throughout the day with any official announcements after the jump. Continue reading

Getting Ready For Tomorrow
14 JulHey all – I know I promised an update last night but after a fun time with watishista forzasusan at the New York Red Bulls game (4-0 over the Montreal Impact with Thierry Henry providing 1 goal and 2 assists), we heard the verdict in the George Zimmerman case on the way home and it just took the wind out of my sails.

Training, Xatty Xabi & Sergio, a Bebe, a Retirement, & more
16 MayWe’ve got less than 24 hours to go until the FINAL kicks off! Training done? Check. Interviews & pressers done? Check. Tucked in at the hotel? Check. Freaking out? Check. Hopefully that last one is happening only on our parts, we need cool, calm, & collected boys who are ready to kick some ass tomorrow. I want to see big goals, a big win, and a big celebration! Make it happen boys, we need that trophy!
Training, Chatting, Getting that Iker FaceTime, y MUCHO MAS
15 MayLook at those defined calves!! Just kidding, you know I’m only looking at Pipa’s ass, but I must say…that thing is de-FOINE also 😉 Today the boys trained for the second to last time before Copa del Rey Friday (it’s like casual Friday, but not). The team is getting ready! Are you guys ready?? All I know is that all Madridistas deserve to see drunk Xabi this season. We’ve earned it with all the ups & lots of downs. I want the bus. I want the people. I want the confetti. I want Sergio to do something stupid. I want the drunk Xabi. I want it all. I want it allllllllll and I want it nowwwww!
Training, More Tennis, Men’s Health Finds 2 New Cover Boys & More
10 May
Sorry about the earlier double post. That’s what happens when you have two people in different cities working on the same blog. I had an open post that I hadn’t saved so Maisougio couldn’t see mine and I didn’t see her’s until after I hit ‘publish.’ So you got the happy news twice! This is going to be another quickie as a work project just rolled in.
