In For The Hat Trick

Since I last posted, an Era Has Ended, Borussia Dortmund has reached the Champions League final and, according to a report I read five minutes ago, FC Sion has sacked Gennaro Gattuso. Meanwhile, I’ve spent an inordinate amount of time writing about Jane Austen, the nineteenth-century novelist who I’m 99 percent sure moonlighted as a professional footballer.

Anyway, here’s what you can expect from INFTH over the next couple of weeks:

• A piece about FOX Sports commentator Gus Johnson
• The last installment in my fantasy football series
• General musings on the end of the season

I’m going to leave you with a quotation from Pride and Prejudice, which Austen started writing during half-time of a Southampton match. In honor of Mark van Bommel:

“Angry people are not always wise.”
