So when does it mean when people halfway across the world see photos like this and immediately think of me?
What does it mean? I’ll tell you what it means.
It means: DAMN, I love this gig.
(Wait. Did I just say that?)
(Thanks, Massaer!)

I love it when the name “Lizarazu” pops up in my inbox. I know it’s going to be something fun. He’s not playing any more, so it won’t be an injury list, or a game recap, or anything normal and boring like that. Instead I get news like the “attempting to make [...]

I guess it’s that time of year, isn’t it? The time to look back at where we’ve been. Or, for our purposes, where the team (and consequently the blog) have been. So here are a few of my favorite moments and blog posts from 2007.
Favorite moments:
In theory I should probably list the [...]

Here we have few more photos from 2007, but this time with the real stories.

Noemie considered a scarlet “A” when Claude cheated, but she decided that
this outfit would be more effective.

“Oh, please, Estelle. Can you honestly tell me

I realized the other day that I have a whole bunch of fun photos from the past year that I’ve saved on my computer. And some of them could use another airing. Enjoy these over the next few days. (And forgive any of the captions that might be recycled. It’s in [...]

Oh! Look! It’s UEFA Team of the Year time! The time when we can all play fantasy manager and pick our ultimate European team!
The options this year are decidedly low on French players compared to last year. I guess this is what happens in years when you don’t make [...]

I had so much fun playing Santa Claus last year that I thought I’d do it again! Gentlemen, here are my Christmas gifts, picked out and wrapped up special, just for you! (And again, if you don’t celebrate Christmas, just nod and say thank you, and remember: It’s the thought that counts.) [...]

Okay, gents, here’s your reward for putting up with that Lizarazu photo for two days. (I really meant to put another post up yesterday, but life got in the way.)
This is Adriana Karembeu, Slovak supermodel wife of France World Cup 1998 player Christian Karembeu. I pilfered it from the afore-mentioned WAGvent [...]

If you are easily offended, close your eyes while X-ing out of this post. Do it quickly and nobody gets hurt. But it made me laugh.
I get google alerts for most current French internationals and a lot of formers. This means that I get some great, up-to-date, footy-related news and the occasional [...]
