DP Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Swearing and Tolerate Thierry Henry
It hurts to write this. Hurts real bad. Even thinking about it makes me feel dirty. But here goes… My earliest – and still many of my best – sporting memories are of my younger self craning my neck from amidst the burly throng of Londoners packed together on White Hart Lane’s Shelf Side. It was in that volatile, rotating mass of humanity where I was baptized into football, learned some of the most hilariously vile curse...
No Lov’ Lost - New York City FC exacts a pound of flesh from Toronto FC
Old news by now, but last week Dan Lovitz was both acquired by the new New York club in the 2014 Expansion Draft and then returned to TFC for some allocation money.
