I just read something about a NHL outbreak of it. that's a shame, but it's probably just made into a bigger story than what it is, just like ebola -- realize how we never hear about that anymore either?

European Discussion / Theirry Henry Retires
« Last post by semperty on December 16, 2014, 08:35:28 am »
I wasn't really sure where to put this, seeing as he retired from America, but considering he's French, and played in England, France, Italy, and Spain before coming to play in the retirement community of America, so I figured it'd work well here. Henry won two FA cups and an English title with Arsenal, the Champions League and two Liga titles with Barcelona, as well as a World Cup with France. While he's not often considered among the all-time greats, he was an elite player of his generation - and a player that many fans grew to love over his career.

Speaking of the Tyne-Wear, I found this picture.  There's some story behind it for sure:

Round of 16 Draws:

PSG v. Chelsea
Man City v. Barcelona
Bayer Leverkusen v. Atletico Madrid
Juventus v. Borussia Dortmund
Schalke FC 04 v. Real Madrid
Shakhtar Donetsk v. Bayern Munich
Arsenal v. Monaco
Basel v. Porto


If you need more proof that UEFA is very Madrid happy, you'll need to look no further than this match. Last season they matched up in the round of 16 as well, and won 9-2. While it's possible that they coincidentally got the same draw, Barca/Man City is also the same draw and PSG/Chelsea is the same draw. Seems odd that all of these repeat match-ups are happening, but I guess it could be an odd coincidence.

The Toon Army travel to Emerites Stadium this coming weekend.

Well, we tanked that one: a 1-4 drubbing by the Gunners.  Ugh!

The Tyne-Wear Derby coming up on Sunday the 21st at St. James.

I've been home for about two days, and it's been wonderful. I definitely underestimated how much I would miss my family when I left for college my freshman year!

Eventually people will understand the goal isn't hyper-activity and growth...eventually.

Amen Brother!
