There's definitely been a spike in crime.

If Real play the way they did in that second half for the rest of the season, they will win the Champions League. That's the first time we've seen Barcelona clueless in two years.

Per @PortlandPolice soccer star Abby Wambach ran a red light downtown last night around 11, then failed a field test & breath test #LiveOnK2

Takes over after Euro.

Not quite sure why they think so highly of him. He's been getting cooked for Italy's displays as of late. Going back to last June they've dropped friendlies to Portugal, Belgium and Germany and tied Romania and Spain.

There's always been Italian managers in the Prem. Conte is Chelsea's fourth alone.

Prem may be losing a manager too, as Guidolin is one of the favourites to take over the Azzurri.

Of course, Conte probably had his own reasons for wanting to get out of the boot:
