I Have the Sickness

After a stint at two of the more premier rehab clinics in the Southwest and a conversion to Scientology, I am happy to announce I’m back. From where I have no idea, but the fruits of someone else’s labors means I feel confident once more to comment on a sport I really know very little about.
And with the advent of a new EPL season and the current standings I can report I have strangled two kittens to death and paid complete strangers to molest homeless vagrants on the unwashed streets of Dallas, Texas. So the stint in rehab didn’t take, sue me and/or my enablers. However that is neither here nor there and anyplace in between. I do know without a clear cut creative force in the midfield no team can win the Premiership. So while Xabi Alonso plies his trade in Madrid, Liverpool can wait one more season for a title that seems destined for a stay in London. And I’m in no way referencing the Spurs. Do the math you gutless Chelsea fans. And while the computations are processed may I go wander out on the proverbial ledge and predict that a change in the Big Four will occur and it will be Arsenal and not Liverpool who will be out of Champions League next season. Tottenham is this year’s Aston Villa, destined to peter out and suffer the indignity of Europa League after flirting like a virginal 16 year old with a much older man too cheap to buy a Porsche. Why do I write such tripe? And when will Mark Hughes be exposed as the charlatan that he is. Roque Santa Cruz? Really? My God must you buy like a drunk Irishman in his first time in the big city. Yes Manny Adebeyor will realize his promise in Manchester because obviously Wenger can in no way develop young talent. He will be his generation’s Stan Collymore. So the game is afoot and I suspect once again the FA and referees of England will gift Sir Alex 4 to 5 games will questionable calls. Yet this in no way will bring another title to United. So if the methodone doesn’t work, then Roman will hoist another title and the game suffers one more indignity in addition to the monstrosity being built in Madrid.
