An Imaginary Pretend Man City Tribute…Plus MOAR!

Welcome to July (or Jew-LIE!!!! if from Mississippi), with Lesser Footy now back in full swing.  Most of the fixtures are even watchable now!

First, a tribute.  Pretend Man City (2048-49 season) just signed a shit-hot new Keeper, England’s #1 at the age of 23.  He’s 6’4″ and Black Like Me (in the game), with the first name Ricardo.  This reminded one of a certain, beloved Portland Commentist….so he has earned the moniker Big Black Ricardo!  More on how he develops as Pretend Time marches on.

Back to reality, you say?  U noe u setting your alarm for Norwich/Brighton (7:30, NBCSN).  Yes, is the Trash Birds Derby!  20th and 15th in the Table (respectively), so while it ain’t quite a “Classic Six Pointer” – is close enough.

Palace and Leicester (10:00) are your only NBC Gold matchup, with Manure/Cherries the NBCSN choice.  Fuck, how I love that the Premiership is spreading out start times better, for MOAR teevee exposure.  We need the content!

In the Spotlight Dance timeslot, you get a fun, important tie (Gooners v. Wolves, 12:30). But alas, it’s on NBCSN only.  Hey, no need to flip channels to stick with Rebecc-ur and the boys!  Moose Hornets are away to reeling Chelski (3:00, NBCSN) to wrap up your day.  It’s a good, full slate.

You also get 4 matches for Sunday Funday, all on NBCSN except City/Saints (2:00, NBC), which should be a bloodening.

Enjoy the action, even if you have to wait for Monday Night Footy for one’s Toffee fix (away to Spurs, 3:00, NBCSN).  Don Carlo Ancelotti has been an absolute wizard on Merseyside, especially after the #NuAIDS layoff.  And how one loves seeing Mourinho in his managerial death throes.

Hey, remember last year when like the entire Dirt Giants team got injured at one point or another from not-corona? It’s happening… again.

I’m pouring ice cold Corona beer into cans of ice cold Blueberry Ice Tea because nothing matters anymore. Change My Mind!

If you don’t dump at least some of that tea in a harbor or other sufficiently large body of water, me and my French and Polish buddies are gonna have to pay you a visit in 3-5 years, depending on the severity of the intervening winters.

Do you want to know something about Stamford Bridge?

herodotus450

It’s not really a bridge and isn’t actually in Stamford?

It’s also not a massive crater, but the night is still young?

By the way, Happy July 4th to all American-inclined DFOers (and a happy 77th anniversary of the beginning of the Battle of Kursk where Germany’s “hopes” to win WW2 actually died) !
