Sporting Public Occurrences.

The college tackle football season in America is just about done. The Official Team of Public Occurrences, Mississippi State, lost this weekend to Alabama.

For former scholars now practicing their profession in the National Concussion League the season is not as far along. The best team so far is Arizona, the worst is Oakland.

The NBA season has only just begun, only 13% of games played so far, but the Los Angeles "Lakers," so-named for the abundance of bodies of fresh water in southern California, SUCK! Kobe Bryant is the most selfish player in the sport.

The English Premier League: 29% done. Unofficially, DONE. Chelsea will win the league. Manchester City don't have their heads in it yet, they look bored, distracted, and they've dropped too many points already to have a reasonable chance of overtaking unbeaten Chelsea. Jose Mourhino really is a "Special One."

Last season's runners-up, Liverpool, currently sit 11th in the table. LFC had a harmonic convergence last year, it says here that even if they had the same team back they would not have matched that performance, but they DON'T. They had to sell the Cannibal, bought the Mohawk as replacement (zero goals so far), lost second-leading scorer Daniel Sturridge to an injury, were due to get him back in time for this weekend's match against Child Porn andthensturridgehurthimselfagainyesterday. Liverpool fanatics are about ready to drink the purple Kool-Aid.

Chevrolet United of Manchester have played better of late. They're all the way up to 7th place on four wins, four draws and three losses. CUM have a reasonable shot to slip into the Champions League next year since...

...There is no way Southampton and West Ham, currently 2nd and 3rd, are going to be able to maintain their form. No way.

The most disappointing club seems to be Arsenal. They are still 6th in the table, well-positioned for their customary 4th place finish and a re-up in the lucrative UCL but they are so erratic, their confidence is shot, they are plagued by injuries, and their manager, Arsene Wenger, has lost it. Given the weaknesses of the clubs now at the top of the table it is probable Arsenal will finish in the top four again but that is a shaky forecast. Never have they been further from winning the league.
