Kickoff for the Danes against the Czechs. I’ll be writing this as I watch.
I love these kinds of games, where two teams that are fairly talented with a couple of well-known players go up against each other. It’s a refreshing break from all of the teams like England and…
Scrolling through Twitter looking at activity from the Cooligans and Men In Blazers when I realize, by god! Its already past noon! I’ve missed the kick off for the game! …
Being a soccer fan in America is miserable.
First of all, while I’m proud to be an American, I’m generally ashamed of most things related to American Soccer. We lose our world cup qualifying matches to teams like Trinidad & Tobago. We sat by and let legends like Landon Donavon…

Biden, 78-years-old and seemingly in cognitive decline (along with his equally ancient…
It started over a decade ago, before I could sniff out bullshit and call it for what it was. I was in middle school, and Jon Stewart was on The Daily Show. I started watching because he was funny, but I kept watching because he was showing me something I…
The night before my road trip through America, I took a winding psychedelic trip through the universe with my best friend, Jesus. (No, not the Arab-Jew on the cross, but a Mexican man with whom I shared many a troublesome story. Pronounced ‘Hay-Zeus’). We had each taken the biggest hit…
