What Football Has Taught Me in 3 Months

Hello my football kittens!

It's been a while since my last post (3 months actually) and a lot has gone on in the footy world. Some good, some bad, some hilarious and some I don't really want to talk about (but will anyway because I have too many feelings). Whatever they may be, these happenings in football have taught me a thing or two about life. Yes, football is the sport that keeps on giving.

Let's take a look at some of the football highlights that have happened during my unintentional hiatus and what wisdom they have accidentally bestowed on me:

WHAT HAPPENED: Manchester City took the Premier title away from Manchester United this year. In yo face, Fergie!

LESSONS LEARNED: Don't be a douche just because your team has won a title 19 times, because karma is a bitch. Also, don't print things in advance.

WHAT HAPPENED: Chelsea won the Champions League. Not sure how that happened. Where the hell was Mario Gomez?

LESSONS LEARNED: Money cannot buy you happiness, but it damn well will buy you the Champions League. Don't trust Germans.

WHAT HAPPENED: Barcelona's King Guardiola decided to not renew his contract for another season and plans spending his free time with family by moving to New York. 

LESSONS LEARNED: Never fall in love with a coach. Because they will leave you and you will die.

Note to self: send Pep a jar of my tears for him to bring with him to the States.

WHAT HAPPENED: Liverpool also lost their King Kenny because the guys at Fenway Sports Group don't know what the hell they are doing.

LESSONS LEARNED: Suits are asshats and they should never be allowed to make decisions of importance in matters as life changing as football.

Note to self: save money to fly to Liverpool to give Kenny a hug. Try not to get a restraining order while doing so.

WHAT HAPPENED: England has a new number one man and it ain't Prince Charles......... It is actually Roy Hodgson.

LESSONS LEARNED: I am totally kind of psychic.

WHAT HAPPENED: The 2012 Euros are here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So far the Greeks beat Poland with 2 men down, Holland could not live up to their rep against Denmark, Spain tied 1-1 with the Italians and England tied with the same score to France, which no one can decide is a good thing or not.

LESSONS LEARNED: Greeks are unpredictable and very nice to look at. And Italy needs to do something about Balotelli before he causes an international incident.

Tonight is Portugal vs Denmark, which will definitely be a treat, especially with a special guest visiting my country to commentate on the game.

Who are you rooting for? Happy Euros, everyone!
