Nuri Sahin apparently needs a moment alone with his new Nike boots. GET A ROOM! #Awkward

Monday Bits & Bobs

Work again has kept me from updating until quite late. Bah humbug! Pretty much all anyone was talking about today was the Confederations Cup. How about that goal line clearance from David Luiz? EPIC. Here he is carting Enzo around. Too much adorable for one picture. 

A Quick Bitsy Bobsy Post

Oh people, what a day I had! I was an hour late for work due to some sort of subway police drama and my 20 minute one train commute turned into about 90 minutes and FOUR trains. UGH. Then I spent the morning on conference calls followed by an epic 5 hour straight meeting. To say my brain is fried doesn’t cover it. So I thought I’d post a few quick pictures of some of our faves. Who better to start with than Marcelo?

Updated: Bits & Bobs: Icky Mouse, Deafening Fangirl Screams & More

I know Shigs would take one look at all these pictures of Kaka with America’s favorite rodent and say “Icky Mouse” as sure as I’m standing here.  Speaking of, I had a lovely time with with watishistas Shigs, P, forzasusan & Baby Girl last night at the Spain vs. Ireland game. It was a drive by for me. I pretty much arrived and hit my seat right before the national anthem and tore out of there right after. Week night games suck.  Ireland did a great job much to the delight of forzasusan. I spent a lot of time sneaking peeks at Nando bitchfacing non-stop on the bench.  He did bust out a big grin and a hug for Robbie Keane though.

A Crazy End To A Crazy Week

Is anyone else happy that the last week is over? I feel like we’ve been on an emotional roller coaster. How on earth did we survive 2 Clasicos & a Champions League match against Manchester United and win them all?

Prepping For The Clasico, Mou Interview, Bits & Bobs And La Roja Call Ups

This is just going to be another quick post and for that I’m heartily sorry. I got news about an hour or so ago that a dear friend was rushed to the hospital with a blood clot. We almost lost him, but thank god, he’s stable now. As soon as I can leave work (another hour from now), I’m tearing up to the hospital to see him. I’m waiting for some calls back on some stuff that must be done today so I can’t go just yet. It sucks that I can’t get out sooner, but taking a few minutes to update the blog is calming me down a bit. If I was just sitting here twiddling my thumbs, I’d go mad.

Happy Birthday Nuri!

Even though Nuri is off on loan to Liverpool, we’d like to wish him a happy 24th birthday. I hope that he, Tugba and baby Omer are settling in nicely. Feliz cumpleanos!
