You could be right. The TiVo just says "Premiereship Soccer" so I don't really pay attention to what channel its on.

And, oh, how quickly we've fallen:

4. France 1523
5. Germany 1363
6. England 1359
7. Netherlands 1305
8. Portugal 1258
9. Nigeria 1244
10. Czech Republic 1190
11. Cameroon 1160

After seeing today's Cup results, you've got bigger problems than the Euro finals….

How do you play so well against Spurs then shit the bed so badly against Birmingham?

Bummer. I like Feyenoord. This was one of the more promising matches of the Round of 32.

Feyenoord thrown out of UEFA CupAssociated Press

NYON, Switzerland – The Dutch club Feyenoord was expelled from the UEFA Cup on Friday because of crowd disturbances.

Feyenoord was set to meet Tottenham in the round of 32 of Europe's second-tier club competition. UEFA officials will meet Monday to decide whether the English club will have to play another opponent instead.

Feyenoord fans fought and smashed windows at Nancy before ripping out and throwing seats during a 3-0 loss on Nov. 30 in the French city.

Always great to see Mourinho's Chelsea lose a game. But I am bit worried to play Liverpool in the last 16 of the Champions League, while they can badly lose two games in a row at home against Arsenal, the following week they can easily beat a team like Chelsea. Barcelona needs to respect Liverpool as much as Man. United, Arsenal or Chelsea.

I'm not ready to talk about it yet. I've been on the other end of those victories so many times, that I'm just not ready to accept it. The last thing I would have thought would be United to take a 0-1 lead and lose 2-1, especially to Arsenal, known quitters. A golden opportunity wasted.
