As football (soccer) fans, we focus a lot on the players on the pitch. The plays that just make them special, the mistakes that make them goats. However, I think we tend to overlook the managers that are on the sidelines. There are managers like Arsene Wenger, Sir Alex Ferguson, Pep Guardiola, who have their respective titles and accolades. However, I think there’s one person that everyone hates to list. Heck, I even dislike the guy for his over-the-top personality. But he could arguably be the best manager right now. That person being Jose Mourinho.

What Have We Done
These were the lyrics of a song from Good Friday service last night. Powerful, to say the least.
Oh my soul, oh my Jesus
Judas sold you for thirty, I’d have done it for less
Oh my soul, oh my Savior
Peter denied you three times, I have denied you more
As the nails went in, I was standing right there
As you breathed your last, I shook my head and I cried
Oh my God, what have we done, we have destroyed your Son
Oh my God, what have we done, we have destroyed your Son
Oh my soul, oh my Jesus
Judas sold you for thirty, I’d have done it for less
Oh my soul, oh my Savior
Peter denied you three times, I have denied you more
And the blood ran down, I was standing right there
And the water poured, I shook my head and I cried
Oh my God, what have we done, we have destroyed your Son
Oh my God, what have we done, we have destroyed your Son
Oh my God, what have we done, we have destroyed your Son
Oh my God, what have we done, we have destroyed your Son
As the nails went in, I was standing right there
As you breathed your last, I shook my head and I cried
Oh my God, what have we done, we have destroyed your Son
Oh my God, what have we done, we have destroyed your Son
Oh my God, what have we done, we have destroyed your Son
Oh my God, what have we done, we have destroyed your Son
Oh my God, what have we done, we have destroyed your Son
Oh my God, what have we done, we have destroyed your Son
— Lyrics for “What Have We Done”, The Northern Conspiracy from Mars Hill Church
Sergio Ramos Shouldn’t Hold Trophies
Maybe Sergio Ramos shouldn’t be allowed to hold trophies… He drops the Copa Del Rey underneath the parade bus.
Arsenal’s Woes
As I was working on my second step for my sociolinguistics paper about UK English, I thought I would take a break and write about something else that’s along the lines of the U.K.: Arsenal. If you’re an Arsenal fan, you probably know the ups and downs that comes with being one. This season was definitely one of the more unusual seasons though in that we actually were in it for all four competitions that we were eligible for: League Cup, FA Cup, Premier League, and UEFA Champions League. Yet in a matter of weeks, it’s pretty promising that we’ll go away without silverware yet again. So what went wrong this season? A few things come to mind: Continue reading Arsenal’s Woes
Pardon the Interruption!
Before the most recent WordPress 3.1.1 update, there had been some issues with hackers getting onto my website. They uploaded Base64 files onto my server, which I eventually found. But unfortunately, as a result of it, there was malware on my website, which may or may not have been downloaded onto visitors. If you were one of those people, I’m really sorry about that. I had no clue until people recently told me about this in the past few days.
If you’ve checked this site in the past few days, please make sure to check your computer isn’t infected with anything. My apologies again. 🙁
