Sunday football open thread

The best way to get over the disappointment of football? Watch more football.

Hi, folks. Well, I’m still disappointed. I’m not ANGRY at you, Tottenham Hotspur, just DISAPPOINTED. With the loss at United yesterday, Spurs’ top four hopes are all but dead; it would take a pretty massive capitulation by Arsenal for Spurs (or United) to catch them in the top four race.

But let’s forget about that, because there’s more football on today, strangely more on a Sunday than we had yesterday. This is your open thread. Perhaps the most interesting match is Chelsea vs. Newcastle — two completely different breeds of oligarch-owned clubs, one looking poised for a rapid rise in fortunes, the other currently sanctioned and basically broke.

Gorge yourself on football, and then feel free to discuss anything Selection Sunday related. (For the non-Americans, today is the announcement of the NCAA college basketball tournament bracket, which I will be so bold as to say is the single most perfect postseason event in American sports.)
