Reminder for those footie inclined: Tottenham Hotspur faces Everton tomorrow, televised LIVE on Fox Soccer Channel @ 9:00 am central time. I believe it’s the first time Spurs will be broadcast on these shores this season. Should be a cracker as Everton isn’t half bad.

GolTv has a nice slate of La Liga games in the next few days as well. Santander vs. Atlético Madrid noon CT Saturday, Bilbao vs Real Sociedad on Sunday, and then champs Barcelona open vs. Celta Vigo on Monday @ 2:00 CT as the best of these three.

Real Madrid opens the season against Villarreal on Saturday but, alas, I don’t get World Sport HD. Footie in HD is an ethereal experience but unfortunately it’s not worth the extra dosh a month to upgrade for a tier of crappy channels that I’ll never watch.
