Quick-hit list of people, places and things we noticed over the weekend that land on the over-done or overly praised side. Not necessarily awful but, you know, just “meh.”
- Sunday afternoon MLS kickoffs
- Reserve league standings
- “Flippy” goal celebrations (Any with a summersault, cartwheel, etc.)
- Complaining about NFL officials
- Any complaining over referees from Alex Ferguson (They get a lot of calls)
- Saying your team “deserved more” or “deserved all three points.”
- “Distribution skills” as a reason Hugo Lloris should displace Brad Friedel in Tottenham goal
- Suspensions that aren’t really suspensions
- Steak fries
- Crinkle fries
- (Fill in the blank) nation
- Over-thinking penalty kicks (Just pick a side. Hit it hard!)
- The next “big” academy signing
