One of the fun things to do every year is see what outrageous fashion appears at The Best awards. I mean, Dani Alves is always worth a look – remember when he went apeshit with a bedazzler? And Messi never disappoints in his sartorial faux pas. Ah, but our Sese in a class by himself as is his missus. The happy couple hit the plane attired in their signature idiosyncractic style. Special shoutout to Pilar’s tangerine studded leather jacket because that is truly something and Sergio is just bein’ Sergio. Note the Frankenshirt. I swear to fuck, this man cannot purchase something that hasn’t been pieced together from seven different other garments. I bet his fave Dolly Parton song is “Coat of Many Colors” Anyhow, at first glance, it’s Frankenlicious, but tame for Sergio. But you really need to see the full thing…

Back To Madrid, Accolades & Families

The team returned to Madrid after Wednesday’s win over Bayern Munich arriving home on Thursday. The game was fun but exhausted (the trip back seemed to take forever). Mygypsyspirit and I spent the following day recovering and hanging out. She left today so I’m getting back to work on things with a very quick catch up.

Okay, the universe obviously hates me. Zoolander came to the Bernabeu but THE TEAM WASN”T THERE! WTF, WORLD?!

UPDATED: Ballon D’os & Ballon D’ont’s

I gotta say absolutely everything today, including the Ballon D’Or, paled in comparison to the loss of David Bowie, an icon and a true pioneer who affected my life on every level.

The NYE pictures are starting to roll in. None from Sergio…yet. But here are some fun ones. Jese saw Karim’s WTF-ness and raised the bar even higher.

Training, Trouble & LFP Awards

Don’t know about you, but I’m still on a high from the Clasico win on Saturday. Watishista hopechaser is hard at work on the recap even as we speak.

Baloncesto Champions, Preparing For The Footy Copa & A Party

First, a hearty mazel tov to the Real Madrid basketball team who beat Barca 77-76 for the Copa Del Rey championship when Sergio Lull scored a basket with 1/10 of a second to go. Holy crap!
