2022
The new year has started with a low-grade hangover. I had two of the Sad Gargoyle Dubbles last night. It's ... ok. I think maybe the D-180 candi syrup dominated the flavors. I didn't add molasses but it sort of tastes like molasses, in a

Saka
The weight of an entire nation were on his shoulders. He's 19 and never taken a penalty before. How did this happen?

Who Cares
I'll be back next season with high hopes of 6th or 7th place.

Draws
For good teams, draws usually feel like a loss. Sometimes though, they really feel like a win. Like if you go down by three goals and manage to dig your way out of that hole. That happened today and it was great. Another 5 minutes and I think they'

An Ode to Ødegaard
Brilliant. It'd be cool if he were at Arsenal more long-term, but he won't be easy to secure. It was nice to see Lamela sent off. I'm sick of him. It seems like he's been a Spur for 20 years. Arlo

Good ol Pepe
That match was a real treat. Honestly, I thought a draw was the best Arsenal could do. Especially after conceding the first goal early (again). Somehow they managed to get the job done. I particularly liked Pepe's goal, because it's the kind of effortless tap-in

I'll Take Another
More of these, please. 4-2. Yeah it was at home. Yeah, we conceded twice in the second half. Got an inexplicable non-penalty, then 10 min later another penalty anyway. Sorry though. That non-penalty was 5x more of a penalty than how David Luiz was penalized a week

Unfair
I think that feeling of unfairness goes hand-in-hand with sports, but when a league makes an effort to make things more fair with VAR, they just shoot themselves in the foot when the VAR decision is clearly wrong. It multiplies the unfairness they set ought to avoid. I

Crossbars
Another 0-0 but this was pretty exciting. Both teams had a lot of chances. I'm really happy Arsenal hung in there well and got a clean sheet. I was worried they'd get battered but they looked like peers and it could've gone either

St. Mary's
From this one: * Soares did well. * Saka did great. * Pepe had a nice goal. Is he going to be on the left again? * Danny Ings is crafty. Too bad for him he's not just 2% quicker. * I thought Theo was going to score. * Why do we play Newcastle

Joy
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang got two goals in a game for the first time in a long time. Buy that guy a beer. I don't care if Newcastle isn't very good. It was great fun watching that right after watching the Bucks lose (even though Arsenal'

Nil-Nil
This is the scoreline that Americans find particularly insidious. What kind of sport allows for 90 min of play without any kind of scoring? Without declaring a winner. It must be boring, right? I spent the the time with some algorithms still churning in my mind; remnants of some unsolved
