Happy Tuesday, Spursland! Thanksgiving is now right around the corner. It's about that time now where you realize if you don't go to stock up on liquor and beer now then you're out of luck until Saturday. God knows you don't want to deal with your family without some liquid courage, so get on that. In other news, Roosevelts sends his love. Last I heard, he and the woman he ran off with went and got married, but it appears that their marriage fell apart after a few years, and as I expected she ran off without him. As a consolation for Roosevelts though, she left behind their eight-year-old son Billy for Roosevelts to raise. I'm sure he'll manage to raise the kid just fine, and she won't come back after several months and demand custody back after abandoning them...

Villas-Boas Claims Tottenham Controlled Arsenal Match From Start to Finish

I mean, I guess in a philosophical sense you could say Adebayor controlled his decision to make a boneheaded challenge and that we willingly put ourselves at 10 men, thus controlling the match and letting Arsenal destroy us. In other news, the Telegraph is a really, really horrible place for substantive news.

Stop Making Rivalries, NFL

Yes, because a rivalry can only happen after at least 50 years of hatred. Even then, if someone has never been murdered at a game then it's not a real rivalry.
