How about Fernando Torres! Scored another big goal today. He's on fire lately and too bad he was sent off after a brilliant goal vs Barca this week. I like Barca a lot but the favoritism uefa shows them is comical. Barca lost again today so Atletico is only 3 pts back in the tables.

How about West Ham getting screwed... again?!?!  It would be comical if it weren't costing us European football.

If you are referring to the Leicester City match, it sounds like the Foxes feel aggrieved as well. How long has it been since West Ham has been this close, this late?

This weekend will be my first chance to watch any of it as a certain deadline has recently passed. Football in the morning and golf in the afternoon. Really looking forward to it.

It's been since 1999.  Bilic was a player on a side that finished fifth.

The referee in the Leicester City was terrible, but Vardy did dive and the FA has nailed him for his conduct after the fact.  That late penalty was a joke.  Carroll got the ball, and the dude made an all-you-can-eat buffet out of a shoulder-to-shoulder challenge.  The problem is that the Hammers have been hammered by crap officiating for about four or five games in a row, including an offside against Arsenal that defied logic.

I guess nobody else watched the LC/MU match this morning?

A bit of a letdown since they could have wrapped it up, but securing a point makes it pretty tough for TH.

In golf terminology, Leicester just went dormie for the Premier League. This has been very exciting for someone who hasn't followed European soccer for that long.

Looks like In-ger-land wanted out of Euro 2016 as well.

Maybe they should take up baseball.

Ouch! The week couldn't get any worse for England. Congrats to Iceland. This is a huge deal for them.

No Kedira, no Gomez, no Hummels. France's mindfield is going to run through Germany like it was cheese cloth. Slow ass schweinsteiger will not be able to stop them.

That wouldn't make sense ... You could start a new one though. :)

    • Day 159 1-19 Flow drill while attempting to add arch in wrist on downswing. Not where it needs to be but felt good working on swing flow. 
    • Day 1 (19 Jan 26) - after a week lay-off due to travels, felt great to get in some drills in the backyard today.  Started with lead arm only short pitches focused on squared face and light divot post ball.  Haven’t done this in a while and it showed, with some skulls and slices.  Settled into easy flighted balls - wrapped up with standard two handed swings.  Good restart to the daily drills. 
    • That depends what you do within those two.  Are they your only options?   Check out Fit for Golf if you get a moment.  It's linked on the sidebar;  I did it for two years, stopped for a really bad reason, and I plan to get back to it soon.   Mike Carroll also has a great free podcast about a lot of topics in golf fitness. 
    • Day 19, 1/19.  Finished work in time to spend 25 minutes hitting balls (hit 15) indoors, off a mat, into the net.  Usual focus.    
    • Day 30 - 2026-01-19 Got 10 minutes in on the mat / net working on exagerrating movements I'm working on. And grip. Also worked with my friendly AI to summarize key negative tendencies I have so that I can build a personal checklist to follow. Will do more mirror work tonight.
