The Barrister

It feels weird even caring about the EPL after the weekend Bills fans have had, particularly when things didn't go as planned for my Reds on Saturday...more on that below.  However, even if my heart and mind aren't completely devoted to the idea of recapping a quasi-forgettable weekend of Premier League football, I remain devoted to the fledgling series I've started here. 

Besides, this week, I have help! Along for the ride, in what I hope will be a consistent fashion - depending, in no small way, on the whims of his dear wife - is our good friend Dave (@davekellynyc on the twitter), who fits in here at DGWU Sports as a fellow Buffalo expat, Bills & Sabres fan, and - though, we forgive him for it - a fan of the Tottenham Hotspurs.  While his footy allegiances are to be questioned, particularly when they involve the heroin capital of the UK, his street cred as a tried and true fan of the Beautiful game is unassailable.  And, since I can't very well be expected to pay attention to Spurs games every weekend - after all, I have my own dear wife to think about - I figured it made quite a bit of sense to give Dave the soapbox every week here in Closing Arguments so you readers can get a good sense of what's happening with the Totties.   

[Note: DGWU will also have some football coverage later this week from the Yachtsman, who prefers complete editorial control over his content, meaning he will post on his own. (read: he will make vague and brief references to the EPL while recapping his trip to Yankee Stadium for Metallica tonight).  Though, assuming he does pull through with some gems for you dear reader(s), he will likely be dropping knowledge on the Liverpool match, which we watched together, as well as thoughts on QPR/NUFC & the admittedly non-premiership goings-on in the Champions League.]

So, assuming you want to take this trip on the SS Disaster, click through after the jump for a smattering of recaps from another exciting weekend in the Premiership.
