How is everybody doing? Hope all is well and that you guys are having a good summer. This weather feels like I’m living back in England as it hasn’t been the warmest.
Had a tough game the other day against Houston. It was a game that we really wanted to win, but just didn’t have enough to come away with the 3 points. Have a friendly tomorrow against River Plate which is exciting because it’s always great to play against teams with different styles of football. More importantly we have a big game coming up against one of our biggest rivals…….The Columbus Crew. We’re also playing Marco Velez’s home country of Puerto Rico and we have to beat them home and away to get into the group stages of the champions league. I’m really excited and looking forward to these games.
On a sad note, Canada got knocked out of the Gold Cup. I felt bad for the guys because they worked so hard and for two Gold Cups in a row, they’ve been cheated. It just gets more and more frustrating with this Gold Cup for Canada. Thank goodness my little man Phoenix doesn’t understand certain words yet because it wasn’t nice what I was yelling at the t.v. when that penalty was called.
Totally off topic, I’m gonna let you guys in on a secret of mine. I’m secretly addicted to the Bachelorette. I know what you’re thinking but I don’t care because Monday nights my phone is turned off at 8 to tune in and watch this rubbish. It really is great mindless t.v. Can’t wait to see who Jillian picks and I’m even more excited to see who the next Bachelor will be next season. My wife and friends laugh at me and make fun of me, but I know that there are other guys out there who watch the show in secret as well. I’m brave enough to come out and admit my addiction lol.
Stay tuned for more soon.
Cheers
