it's spelled futbol

Slim and I took a bit of a holiday in the middle of the day today to watch some soccer on the telly at the Thirsty Lion downtown. After all, it was the largest futbol match of the year, in case you hadn't heard. I personally didn't have much invested in the game but I found myself pulling for Man U, if for nothing else than because the Barcelona fans all seemed like jerks. Either way, I wish Manchester would have made a game of it but Lionel Messi's goal to seal the game was something of beauty. Here is a great pic Nick Potts shot of him kissing his shoe in the moments following the goal. Of course, we kiss our shoes all the time around the office.
