Many months ago, some friend of mine in DC – Pablo, Seth, and Thomas – decided to start recording a DC United podcast. Named after a famous Simpsons bit, Open Wide For Some Soccer was born.
DC United’s season went to absolute shit, setting records for futility. Being the type who is always there to pile on with numbers, a segment developed entitled “Sad Stats”, where DC’s record was put in context with sad music playing in the background. I loved this segment so much that I started compiling Sad Stats, and making multiple appearances as the “official Sadistician”.
With the offseason starting, there was a general decision that maybe the OWFSS needed to dominate more media, so now there is a Tumblr.
We do Power Rankings for the league’s narratives.
We made fun of a Forbes article – and every team in the league.
We made fun of the league’s awards.
We give out an award for weekly excellence, named after an obscure Chinese player.
And so on. So if you’re looking for more wit from me, head on over there.
