Like Buses
By: Abby |As the saying goes, “_____” is like buses- wait forever, and then they all come along at once. (This seems to be very true in Seattle.) We can now put Hertha BSC Berlin transfers in the January window in the blank.
Just a few days after Marko Babic was revealed as a Hertha player, we’ve added [...]
Oh Hey, This One Happened
By: Abby |I’ve got to be right every so often, right? And now, Marko Babic is a Hertha player.

But then, before September had even started, he got [...]
I’m Sick And Everyone’s Injured
By: Abby |Well, maybe that’s a bit of a hyperbole. I’m feeling way better than I was last week- my cough is nearly entirely gone. And not everyone on Hertha is injured- only Jaroslav Drobny, Marko Pantelic, Cicero, Josip Simunic, Gojko Kacar, Pal Dardai, and Patrick Ebert.
