fuck free spending Chelsea
Current mood: bummed out
I've just watched the Community Shield on delay. Arsenal lose 2-1. I am pretty bummed about it.
Drogba scores both for Chelsea, and both were fuck ups by Senderos. Fabregas pulled an ugly one back. That kid has talent and I hope he really flowers this year.
The teams meet in two weeks time at Stamford Bridge. If Arsenal can win there, then we can win the season. If we tie we may win yet. If we lose Chelsea will repeat as Champions. There is something that upsets my sense of universal balance at Chelsea winning again.
The NHL is back. 39 million dollar salary cap and all. I really fucking hope the NHLPA learned its lesson, especially Trevor Linden and Bill Guerin. For their "hardball" they got a year of unemployment and worse working conditions then they could've gotten originally.
The great thing about this cap is the talent it frees up. Colorado, New York, and Detroit won't be able to lock up all the talent anymore. Anaheim just signed the Niedermayer brothers. Pittsburgh is rebuilding. Lemieux's back, Crosby's there, Fleury's there, Jackman's there, Gonchar just got bought up, and they're looking to contend again. Oh yeah, they just signed Ziggy Palffy too.
Paul Kariya signed with Nashville, of all places.
I'm no Forsberg fan, but it seems the Floppa has ended up in Philadelphia. Clarke is really eager to take my beloved Flyers to the Cup.
As for the two teams that take my love before Philadelphia, St. Louis and Dallas, Dallas signed Modano to a career ending 5 year contract, kept Billy G, are resigning a bunch of RFAs on the cheap, and looking to have a solid team. The Pacific got better not only because JR went to LA, but also because Gretzky said he'd be coaching the Phoenix Coyotes. I knew the Hull-Gretzky partnership wasn't over in St. Louis!
Both the EPL and the NHL this year are going to be great.
