Prepping For The Second Leg

Cristiano. Sigh.

In Barcelona & Ready For The Match

The team is in Barcelona and ready for the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup.

Ready For The First Leg Of The Spanish Super Cup

Y’all, it is so hard to talk about football at the moment. I’m currently sick to my stomach and furious about Charlottesville and the situation in my country in general. If you feel as I do, please consider making a donation to an organization that fights back against the sort of hatred that is on the rise. If you can’t donate, that’s okay, but please don’t be silent. Speak up on social media, attend a solidarity event in your community or contact your elected officials. Your voice is important.

I just needed to get that off my chest. And now, a quick recap of the day for Los Blancos.

Prepping For Sunday & 13 Seasons Of Sergio

The team had a training session in preparation for the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup on Sunday. I started my own prep by stocking up on snacks for when the girls come over to watch the match.  I’m sure there will be lots of cussing and whatnot. And hopefully lots and lots of cheering. My poor neighbors.

UEFA Super Cup Campeones!

We’ve won our first trophy of the new season (despite Sergio’s haircut). Start as you mean to go on I always say!

Training In Chicago & More

I certainly am doing a bang up job at missing this entire pre-season, aren’t I? This time, at least, I have a legit excuse.

Catching Up: Training, Fixtures, New Kits and Birthdays!

Well, the pre-season prep is heating up. Pre-season starts officially tomorrow. Lots to catch up on! Marcelo & Dani were the first to get back to work on Wednesday.
