Here's Your Uniform, a Rifle, and Your Hooker
Autumn has finally hit the Coastal Bend of Texas and I can actually walk outside without sweating. I’m sure this isn’t the most important news to many, but it means a lot to me. There was a lot of action for lots of people this weekend, so lets get started.
First and foremost, the Arsenal won decisively on Saturday against Reading at the Madejski Stadium. Henry opened up the scoring with a goal off a great pass from Cesc within the first minute of play. Not a bad way to start the day! Cesc along with the entire team continued to impress the whole match and they put on a show reminiscent of the unbeaten season. Great one touch passes, plays into space, and loads of chances on goal. Hleb got a nice goal, and so did van Persie. Later, Cesc was played into space and drew a penalty when he was brought down by the keeper. Henry slotted the PK home for a brace and to bring the match to 4-nil. Reading, who were recently promoted from the Championship, aren’t a bad club 
and gave fits to Man U and Chelsea recently. They also had a few good chances and except for some luck and good saves from Lehmann, could have had a goal. But the way Arsenal were playing on Sunday, not many clubs would have stood a chance at beating them. Here are the highlights (though the video is a bit slow to load).
The win this weekend put the Gunners into 4th place on 17 points. ManU and Chavksi are in 1st and 2nd at 22 points and Bolton are 3rd on 20. Arsenal also has a game in hand, so we are looking good and still title contenders. The press hasn’t mentioned this much, which is fine by me though. Let the media focus on the other clubs and leave us to our beautiful football and weekly wins. The Arsenal play again tomorrow in the Carling Cup against West Brom and the veterans will get a few days off as the kids are likely to start. More on that tomorrow.
Plymouth drew 0-0 against Burnley on Saturday. The Danish GK Brian Jensen did wonders to stop a number of Argyle strikes to give Burnley a point in the match. Plymouth can rest this week with no midweek fixtures and travel to south London to play Crystal Palace this coming Saturday. Argyle currently sit in 7th place and a win against Palace could see them move back up the table.
Chelsea won this weekend as well as Man U over Liverpool, but the biggest news, at least to many, was Tottenham’s Jermaine Defoe’s mid-match snack on the arm of West Ham’s Mascherano. Apparently lil Defoe was getting kicked about a bit and was finally brought down from behind by the Argie. Enough was enough and Defoe thought the best way to mouth his displeasure was to gnaw on Javier’s arm. What ever happened to the old kick in the nuts or Zidane style head-butt? Kids these days. Anyway, along with Defoe, his manager Martin Soprano, I mean Jol has tried to downplay it as just a bit of fun:
"It is part of the game. They kicked him three times from behind in 10 minutes and he wanted to show his frustration in a nice, comical way."
If by comical you mean biting like a 2-year old, then yes, that is what he did Martin. And the Sperz wonder why nobody takes them seriously and considers them a big club. Not only are they a crap side, but they are all idiots as well.
Finally, if I ever have to join the military, I think I’m going to emigrate to Holland. No, it’s not because of the fancy wooden shoes, but because some Dutch politicos think their army should send along prostitutes when their soldiers go abroad. Now, I know most people are thinking the same thing I am, the Dutch have an army? But it seems they do and some feel hookers should be part of the rations.
"The army must consider ways its soldiers can let off steam," Annemarie Jorritsma, mayor of the town of Almere in central Netherlands and a member of the ruling VVD liberals, told Dutch television. "There was once the suggestion that a few prostitutes should accompany troops on missions. I think that is something we should talk about," she said, adding that the prostitutes would keep soldiers from turning to local women ( or men, or sheep).
Some members of their army (stop laughing!!) feel it might not be a good idea and that their spouses wouldn’t like it. Members in the sex trade are intrigued though.
That does it for me today.
Adios.

Why don't the Dutch send some of that fine Amsterdam weed while they're at it?
