Happy May day! This month marks the 9th anniversary of my blog and well, I wish I knew it was going to last this long I would have tried to be a much better writer in the beginning. Today everyone at work kept referring to today as the first day of Summer. I was a bit surprised by this because to me summer has always started in the middle of June whenever the solstice takes place. I'm still a bit confused as to whether the Irish go by different seasonal dates or everyone was just wrong about today being the first day of summer.
In other news I was sickened when I saw a list on ESPN today about the top payrolls in Sports and Manchester United is no longer in the top ten. The American owners have really ruined that club, there is evidence the Glazers have borrowed over $750 million against the club to pay for the struggling Tampa Bay Bucaneers. It's really time to start the chants at Old Trafford again to get rid of them. I'm watching the once richest football club in the world turn into the Kansas City Royals right before my eyes. It's been 3 or 4 years now since Manchester United has done anything significant in the transfer markets and I don't see that changing until the penny pinching Glazers are gone. The lost to Manchester City last night only makes things worst to me, cause clearly money can win championships in the Premier League. I've been saying it for years now about how United is getting left in the dust of the other teams when it comes to spending now the proof is right here staring me in the face.
