What?! Is the sky falling down or something?

Really, life isn't that interesting. But who says you can't write about it anyway?

A Heartbreaking Sunday

Today was a bad day. First, Hannover 96 loses to Werder Bremen by conceeding 3 goals in like 11 minutes, when before they were leading 2-1. Then Richard Gasquet starts off by winning the first set against Roger Federer before losing the next 2. They were both so bright before they came back to earth. And River Plate ended up tying after a 3-1 (?) lead. Then there was the German roleplay that wasn't long enough. I really don't know how much more we can BS.
And it didn't help that Friday and Saturday were good days sports-wise for me. Bayern Munich won their opener (and were a bit lucky too), Chivas USA beat Chicago (I like Chicago, but Chivas more), Guadalajara won, and friendly-wise Reading beat Feyenoord. It sucks when my teams go against each other, especially if I don't really prefer one to another, like Crystal Palace vs. Leeds today, etc., because I don't know who to root for. I guess it's more draining to put all your support behind one team, but it also much more fun. I mean, I watched a bit of today's Community Shield match between Chelsea and Liverpool, and I enjoyed it but I didn't care who won. (By the way, Liverpool did. 2-1.) But it is also draining to look for info on teams and leagues, especially if they aren't deemed as "important". That's why finding stuff about Croatian football frustrates me, because no one else seems to care! Niko Kranjcar's Hadjuk Split is 3-0 and top of the charts, but I only found that out after a bunch of browsing. Maybe I need to find new sites? Also I have trouble finding things on Portuguese and Belgium leagues. Premiership is nice and all, but there is some nice soccer in other places too.
