Tuesday Morning Hoddle Of Coffee: Tottenham Hotspur News And Links For October 15, 2013

Happy Tuesday Spursland! Guys, girls, ladies, gents and everyone in between, hear my words: it is easy to lose sight of what is important in life. Lots of things are happening in our world: the US government is shut down (however you feel about that don't mention it in the comments or it will be nuked and you will be warned/banned), Breaking Bad is over and some idiots in Massachusetts are against sober drivers. Worst of all, we still have to wait until Sunday for Spurs to play. It's a rough world folks, do the best you can.

And now the "news"

It's A Different Game South Of The Border- SB Nation Soccer

Nobody reads the articles, I know, but on days like today you should and especially this one by our own fearless leader and protector of the realm Kevin McCauley. If you ever wondered "where is Kevin, I never see him around" it is because he is off working on excellent stuff like this, which he churns out at a speed that makes me pee myself. If you have ever sat around in your underwear wondering why Kevin gets paid to write about soccer and you don't, it is because he can do this, and you can't.
