September Tie ... wha?

I said it was going to come down to the last game. I was right, and thankfully Darren Bent decided to score in the 80th minute to give me a perfect to tie Derek for September.

To bad we weren't smart enough to see this coming before the season started because now we will have an awkward chat tomorrow about how Brett is going to send me the trophy instead of handing it over to Derek. Oh well.

It was an eventful September. It will mostly be remembered by Mark Halsey's inability to give good penalties, Suarez & Tevez, while being able to give penalties that aren't, Valencia & Riise. At least that is how I see it.

Suarez played brilliantly yesterday. Bagged his second hat trick in as many trips to Carrow Road. He had another clear cut penalty turned away because of his 'reputation'.  Of course, we had to have the customary Reina flap. What is going on with him? -- Next season's documentary title has been leaked - 'Suarez Dives & Reina Flaps: The Liverpool Story'

In the end they didn't affect the result of the game. Congrats to Brendan and the boys for getting their first win. If the team continues to play like this we we should have a fairly easy October save for a trip to Goodison.

Now I am off to watch some Being: Liverpool.

Awesome.

YES!!!!!!! I may have been atrocious at predicting outcomes, but a win at Old Trafford for the first time since 1989!!!!!!!

Woot!

Even Gary Neville agrees, sort of.

6 of one? Nah, just a 2 footer that goes unpunished.

Fall over before contact? PENALTY - Either way, soft

One camera captured Mark Halsey during the game.

Just Sayin

Anyway, enough of my ranting. Congrats to Spurs for the win and Arsenal for grabbing a point against City. This month will come down to the last game I can feel it. 

And Champions League is here again...

Besides Arsenal scoring 2 goals in 2 minutes to win it in France, my favorite moment from today has to be this:

Another angle:

Must share this due to pure bizarro factor. (Psst. He plays for Spurs now)

Yes! I am the winner (at least temporarily). I will let this console me while AVB drives the morale of a good squad down until they quit on him. Should be a nice conversation piece here at work.

Week #3

What happened?  

Seriously?

3, 6, 3?

I think this is my new favorite picture.

We're pathetic.  We're like Reina's current form.  We need some work.

I had been hoping desperately to be able to text everybody "RVP WHO?" after Sunday's match, but then he goes off against a resolute Southampton side.  I think he did that just to spite me.  

Edit: Allen - added a thumbs up!
