No, that is not a random Photoshop job. Arne Friedrich met with Prince Charles and Camilla during their trip to Berlin. I’m not sure exactly why, except that he’s apparently a good person to have a photo op with these days.
It’s been exciting times for Arne, although perhaps not in the way he’d like. While [...]

It’s Comforting, In A Way

A “highly efficient” Hertha performance, featuring defending described mostly as “solid”, produced a 1-0 win away to Hoffenheim. It was another one of those games in which the other team dominated, should have won on multiple occasions, hit the crossbar, and yet lost as we managed to score with our one shot on target.

As the spring approaches and the Seattle weather turns to the sort of thing that we don’t tell outsiders about, all the clouds and gloom are coming instead from Hertha Berlin.

Right, then. I’ve had my sulk and now it’s time to get back to anticipation and support. These next few weeks are going to be hard, but damn it, there’s still hope. And whatever the case, we’ve got some great memories to fall back on.
Right now, we’ve got a decent game to recover our form [...]

Did you hear that?
That’s the noise of the season crashing back to Earth.
