CARLING CUP: CHELSEA @ EVERTON 2-1


I missed the first half of the game because I was being an outstanding employee and helped set up for the "Howl-Ween" party at work. So I was refreshing my phone about 10 times a minute for updates on the game. Very exciting to refresh and finally see that Chels was up 1-0. I get home at halftime, search for the game to watch online. Found nothing except BBC radio calling the game, so I just sat in my room and listened to the game like I was living in 1940. I've listened to baseball and football games but never English football and needless to say it wasn't very relaxing. Like I'm just sitting there starring at the wall and then hear "Turnbull shown a red! Penalty kick for Everton"...NEAT. Then again it was actually kinda neat to hear "CECH SAVES IT! REBOUND! CECH AGAIN!!" without seeing it. Either way, just listening too it was pretty tense. The crowd noise was very clear, could barely hear the announcers when Saha scored. Too bad that didn't matter cause DANNY FUCKING STURRIDGE tapped in a rebound 30 minutes later for the winner. I was starring at my ceiling and just started shooting little kicks into the air and fist pumping. Not sure who called the game, I only caught the analysts name was Rufus and he sounded Caribbean.

game notes:
-none, i didn't fucking watch it

ps-anyone wondering what "howl-ween" was, it was a costume party for dogs..
