By: Robert |1. No luck on that African correspondent, which means I’m going to have to do my own leg work on those posts I’m just beginning to hash out.

Free Kicks
By: Robert |I need a better name for short and simple ramblings than “Free Kicks,” any ideas?
Also, I gotta start figuring out how to post pictures in this blog (remember I want to see “Hoops Hotties” from the games…the Scottish and Irish Hoops contingents can send in their “Hoops Hotties” as well…do they call them “Hoops Lasses” [...]
