Hail Hail the US Women's National Team and the Mighty Abby Wambach, who scored twice despite a bandaged head and bunged up toe, to lead the US to a 2-0 win over hapless Sweden. Wambach has scored something like 80 goals in 93 games for the WNT. Amazing.
I've caught a couple of games so far and they've beene xciting affairs with fast-paced (for the women's game) attacking soccer, and goals coming at the end to salvage wins and/or ties. Good stuff.
Over at Weak Hart Lane
Despite spending monmey like a drunken sailor in the offseason, Martin "It Worked for Mourinho" Jol's Tottenham Spurts are not getting results with only 1 win in 5 games. While it's early, the headhunters are painting a target on Jol's back and the Spurs Chairman has already had to issue a "The manager's Job is Safe" proclamation."
It all makes for an interesting lead up to the Saturday derby with Arsenal.
And because I believe in the positive power of good news, here's a report that says that the Earth may survive the Sun's predicted demise in 5 billion years. You. Not so much.
