Good Morning!

Well with my Barclay premier league out of the way, fun was had by all who where there. Manchester United off to the next host city as they make their way across the USA. With 60,000 people at Soldier Field. A nice place to go when the Chicago Bears aren't playing there. 
The last time I was there it was a little different for one it was about a hundred degrees colder on the December day that myself and daughter Elisabeth went to see the Green Bay Packers play the Chicago Bears. See that day was a lot different in many ways.
For one it was -20 degrees with a wind chill around -45. It was so cold that our beers would freeze in rings in our glasses as we drunk them down. The hot dog's were the best things that day, and Elisabeth and myself both said "A hog dog never tasted so good!"
Plus one small detail is that I a Green Bay Packers fan and most Bears fans don't care for Packer fans all that much.
I enjoyed my Manchester United experience and my Chicago Fire experience as well. I've watched the World Cup for years and have enjoyed it very much. I've been buying the FIFA games for my PSP for a few years now and enjoy them very much.
I do have to say I may have to start watching a few more MLS soccer games from here on out!

holy Crap, did it Rain!

Did we get nailed last night!
Rain came thru here with a meanness that was incredible. Close to 7" inches of rain in two hour over night. Made a mess out of roads all over the Chicagoland  area. Flooding flooding and more flooding. 
It needs to clear out for the futbol game this after noon. At Soldierfield ManU vs Chicago Fire Soccer Club, should be fun! 
I'll try to have update on my FaceBook and Twitter Page

Manchester United!

The British are coming, the British are coming! No I'm not doing my best Paul Revere and I'm not even going to make any referent to Paul Revere and Raiders " Indian Reservation " A great song I might add. See this is how I go from one to another a back again. Must stay focused on the job at hand.
Tomorrow the greatest team in all of sports is coming to the great city of Chicago, Illinois. Yep Manchester United, this is like seeing the "Canadiens de Montreal" The Green Bay Packers New York Yankees all rolled into one team.
Can wait to see this is going to be big!
So tomorrow @ 4:00 Chicago time the The Red Devils face off with the Fire of Chicago should be a grand time had by all. I'm so looking forward to this game.
So yes as I said, The British are coming, the British are coming!
