I know you're knee deep in tranny vag, but update the GD thread title.

Soooo... a dude that became a chick with a vag or a girl that tries to look like a dude and still has a vag?

Saw a pretty good one at Fan Fest on Tuesday watching Brazil-Mexico

This is an article that needs to continue to be had in soccer.

I mean you get incidents like yesterday, but you also have basic actions like headers, that doctors are saying often can have the same impact of football players (who wear helmets) hitting each other. Hopefully greater steps towards player safety can be taken soon

Sunday Times front page leads on Fifa ExCo members doubling their salaries from £60k to £120k to mitigate bonus clampdown.


A reminder that FIFA is a "non-profit" organization.

That seems low, actually.

Dan Shaughnessy sucks. I don't give a shit if you like soccer or not, Dan, but these are some of the worst and most tired arguments I've ever read.

By definition, you are not ignoring it by writing about it, Virgin Fro.

Most people in Boston have known CHB is a fucking moron for a long time but this column is especially dense even by his high standards. I feel guilty for clicking the link and giving him the attention he craves. CHB is a talentless hack who is pathetically bitter because so many of his more talented colleagues at the Globe have gone on to bigger and better things and left him behind.

It really was a poor article.


I take just how that article was written and juxtapose any one of Wright Thompson's articles from his journey around Central/South America and it appears to be ages apart.

I am not going to be able to sleep tonight. So nervous.

We win. 3-2.

Prepare for lots of butthole clinching action.
