One cracker of a game today between the Gunners and your pe..., er, I mean Leicester City! 
 
Too bad I'm about to pass out for awhile (it's 6am here) so I won't get to watch Tottenham and Man. City play live (but it will be the first thing I watch once I wake back up!).
 
P.S., Man U. sure is stinking up things lately; losing to the Black Cats?  Really??!  (My roommate is a big Man U. athletic supporter and is NOT happy - lol.)

Another footy fan!
 
My EPL teams are Everton (Ferry 'Cross The Mersey) and West Ham (sure miss Sam)
My La Liga team is Valencia (worked there for a year)
My Bundesliga team is Augsburg (lived there)
My Ligue 1 team is Olympique de Marseilles (where my brother is retiring (his wife's hometown))
 
Yeah, I've been a Merseyside fan since Gerry & The Pacemakers.
 
Life goes on day after day
Hearts torn in every way
 
So ferry 'cross the Mersey
'cause this land's the place I love
and here I'll stay
 
People they rush everywhere
Each with their own secret care
 
So ferry 'cross the Mersey
and always take me there
The place I love
 
People around every corner
They seem to smile and say
We don't care what your name is boy
We'll never turn you away
 
So I'll continue to say
Here I always will stay
 
So ferry 'cross the Mersey
'cause this land's the place I love
and here I'll stay
and here I'll stay
 
Here I'll stay

Hope you've enjoyed our best (about to retire) goalie export!

Strange to see U.S. national players in the EPL. Tim Howard has done well for Everton. But Brad Guzan? Aston Villa benched him. And they're 20th out of 20 in the EPL table. Embarrassing. Just like the 4:0 Everton win over A-V last November. Ha ha ha.
 
Edit: Gotta add a big shout-out to DirecTV. Other than online streaming, I think they're the only carrier of the Extra Time channels. My Genie DVR has 5 tuners. There are Saturday mornings when I could use several more (EPL (NBCSN, USA, Extra Time 491-495, NBC)) + Bundesliga (FS1, FS2) + La Liga (BeIN Sports)).
 
In addition to GAS, I also have FCS (Football Consumption Syndrome).

We have Dish and we have ALL the channels.

Glad to hear it! How many tuners in their DVR? More than 5?

We have at least three now, but I hear that very soon they will be offering a lot more.  I used to have DirecTV at my last house and, other than having five tuners, I can't say it was better at all.
 
Ok, I'm off to watch that recorded Tottenham / Manchester City game!  Kane and Aguero, should be some scoring.

Wow, another really fun game to watch!  (Plus I liked the outcome.)

Thank you.
