22 JulWorld Cup 2014 – Group G – Match Report: Germany 4 – Portugal 0
17 JunWell… This was it. The German National Team took on Cristiano Ronaldo, and 10 other guys that we just don’t give a shit about (according to ESPN), at Arena Fonte Nova. They called it man against machine because, let’s face it, they have no idea who the rest of the Portuguese players are. Continue reading

UPDATED: Bits & Bobs: The “I Need A Cocktail Something Fierce” Edition
13 JulOh boy, it has been a long day. I was up really early working from home while waiting for not one, but two (!), visits from the air conditioner repairman and considering how humid and gross this NYC summer has been, it was an absolute must. So, now I’m a couple of hundred bucks poorer, but the house is cool again. Alas, my brain is fried though. Summers are supposed to be slow, don’t you think? Why is work so busy? Argh. Anyhow, I’m going to drop some bits and bobs that I’ve collected on y’all, then pour myself a nice glass of wine and kick back for the evening.
To start things off, the fabulous torso of Sami Khedira! He and Lena are now in Miami. However, he’s sporting the same trunks that Mesut and Sergio had last summer. C’mon, Sami! Those trunks are sooooo 2011! He still looks hot as hell. Continue reading
Germany Gets Down To It
25 JunArgh, I am so exhausted! Here’s another picspam catching up with Germany that I hope I can actually stay awake to post. Mesut put this shot on Facebook today with the caption “Today I was at the press conference of the DFB. On the pitch I feel better – but media relations is one of them. But now is the concentration of the match against Italy.” We know he’s shy with the press, but he looks so pretty talking to them! Continue reading

Trying To Catch Up: Germany
31 MayGermany played Israel today and I’ll *try* to get a recap up over the weekend. I’m coming back from Philly tomorrow night but not until about midnight or so, which means I’m already behind schedule. Fun! Maybe on the trip I’ll have time to write one up if the gods of wifi are good to me. Continue reading
Die Mannschaft Train & Badass Around Monaco
29 MayOMG! You have no idea how happy I am to see Schweini and the other Bayern boys. He looks pretty happy too. I’m sooo excited for the tournament to start so Die Mannschaft can kick the serious arse that I know that will. Whoops! I’m being a little partisan, but they are my boos. I love Spain and I’ve supported Italy my whole life. I have a major fondness for the Dutch, but this year, I think Germany is going all the way. It’s hard when so many players you like and admire are spread across so many teams. Continue reading
