Only in America 2

Everton are playing in Dallas, where it's 100 degrees F. (Don't over-exert yourselves, guys - you've got to play Liverpool on September 9.)
If, like me, you're on tenterhooks - whatever they are - awaiting the result of the Club America game, you may wish to calm yourself by reading this in today's NYT.

Hope we're not making Villefranche too popular.

    Thanks folks - it shoved up the Amazon rating but didn't do Everton any good. They lost in a penalty shoot-out, Alan Stubbs hitting the cross-bar. What is it about the Brits and penalties?

    It's because we are so law-abiding .... we want to avoid any penalties.

    Even the pre-payment penalties?
