Man, I feel like I’m just playing catch up these days! I have so much to post and so little time.
Esteban was interviewed in Rolling Stone a few days ago. I was hoping someone would get around to fully translating it before I had a chance to post it. Lo and behold, my prayers were answered! Continue reading
El Pirata’s bromantic bestie, rock star Leiva, was squeeing on Twitter about a poem that Esteban had published in Basque newspaper Diario Vasco. He even posted a picture. Continue reading
Ah, it sucks when two teams you really like are up against each other. The best we can hope for is conflicted-in-the-stands El Pirata shots. Feel free to share your comments pre-post & during the match. I’ll update with arrival shots and line up. Continue reading
Pirata spent Day 8 of his recovery hanging with one of his besties, Leiva, on the beach in Zarautz. Continue reading
Lordy, I have so many bits & bobs, I don’t even have a clue where to start. Ugh. How’s about I just begin with our boys? Here’s Iker (or rather Geeker from the looks of it) with a fan. Our intrepid capi also posted a shot of his good friend Roy Batty from Blade Runner who was enjoying some LA poolside tanning. Continue reading
You better take off your clothes a lot this summer. Just sayin’
There is no other explanation for him showing up with that shitshow of a hairdo. Xabi Alonso is off screen vomiting into a trash can. Sese, why you wanna ruin The Pretty?! ::shudder::
The team is all back together! The rest of the squad arrived, had their medicals and then headed for the airport. UPDATED TO ADD MORE PICTURES FROM THE PLANE Continue reading
That awkward moment when you meet the guy you named your dog after.
An eagle-eyed cule (Photo by @barzaboy) spotted Messi & Cesc chatting with Isco in Ibiza and thankfully, snapped a picture. Ha! I can see it now: Continue reading
Thanks to watishista Bre for finding this shot of El Pirata by his QPR teammate (currently on loan to Palermo) Alejandro Faurlin. Looking through Ale’s pix, it seems like he’s a guitar player as well. The Hoops have started their pre-season and Esteban is currently with ’em. I wonder what the transfer window will hold for our lovely pirate? In addition to the guitar and mandals, I’m enjoying the box of All-Bran on the dresser. Total hippie, our ElP but hey, at least he’s getting his fiber, right? He’s got other, more important, things to think about (LIKE COMING HOME). Ahem. As you were.

Sigh. What a bunch of silly goofballs on our team. Love them. Los Blancos had their fourth training of the week and then were joined by some special guests. Continue reading
Why is the last day in the office before vacation always a nightmare of epic proportions?! I’ve been racing around for days trying to get things settled before I leave tomorrow afternoon, but I feel like I’ll be up until midnight easily sorting things out. Haven’t even packed yet. Anyhow, Here’s a quick and dirty catch up post.
The team did their first training to prepare for the Copa Del Rey final on Friday. Sami was back to training intensely, Pipa was inside while Sese, Mesut & Marcelo continued with their recovery. Continue reading
Of Headbands and Heartbreak...
