“Son, that was one helluva judo flip you pulled off on Saturday!”
So, the less said about that clusterfuck on Saturday, the better, but being me, of course, I have a few things to say because, lordy, the screeching that went on over the weekend was nigh unbearable. Internet, you exhaust me. I had to step away from the computer yesterday so I didn’t put my fist through it. So, my thoughts… Continue reading
First off, I’d just like to say a heartfelt thank you to those of you who defended our capi, me and this blog in the comments section. Being called “worse than” a Nazi over a discussion about football was a classic (some people need a heaping dose of perspective, apparently), I tell ya. Both Maisougio and I have tried to build a community where we can actually discuss the game civilly and respectfully no matter what our affiliation or opinion. One thing we have never tolerated is blatant insult hurling. If you come here, you have to be ready to defend your position (again, politely). Many of our readers know the game inside and out. Don’t let the fluffy tone of this blog fool you. There are some highly intelligent folks here and we don’t suffer fools gladly. Name calling doesn’t pass for discourse on our little corner of the interwebz. So if you are going to dish it out, you’d better be prepared to be challenged. We love a good discussion, emphasis on the discussing part. As I’ve said many times before, feel free to share, but tell us why you don’t like something. If you just want to rant without someone questioning you, there’s plenty of other places you can do that. This is not an appropriate forum for your shit fits. It’s an appropriate forum for my shit fits. And Maisougio’s. That’s why we started our own blog. 😉 All kidding aside, let’s keep it smart, friendly and fun. That’s how we started. That’s how we mean to go on.
So the man in question had a few things to say on the radio yesterday. The mothership had some excerpts as always from our saintly banana (or this season, saintly highlighter). Continue reading
Again, my apologies for being so behind on stuff today. I grabbed all the pictures earlier, but didn’t have time to get them on the blog. Continue reading
If you’d like to take a moment and leave the boys a message of support before tomorrow’s Clasico, mosey on over to the Real Madrid website. Go to the bottom of this page, fill out your name and email along with a little note. Show our boys some love!

I am proud of you and love you, boys! You gave your all! No shame, not in my opinion. You played a good and clean match! I’m just thrilled to see a decent game without brawling. HALA MADRID! NOW AND FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shakespeare knew what he was talking about. That game was just…ARGH. I just can’t, absolutely CANNOT, talk about the game right now. There are so many emotions warring in me – anger and embarrassment, primarily – going in so many directions that I can’t focus.

After our April Fool’s surprise Drool, allow us to offer a little San Iker for your viewing pleasure. He’s a bit more of what you expect when you come here for The Daily Drool. Also, HALA MADRID! (Just in case there was ANY confusion).
