Spoil Your Party? That Wouldn’t Be Fair

And fairness is what we’re all about here at Hertha BSC Berlin.
Hertha went to Munich over the weekend, because someone had to play in the Oliver Kahn Retirement Show and luck of the draw picked us. So we went down to Munich and promptly- and politely- got our butts kicked.
But that’s okay, because it was [...]

Apologies for lack of posting in a week where actual things were going on, but I’ve been having a birthday and therefore without time to write up posts.
But in my absence, Hertha’s done surprisingly well for themselves. Three wins in a row as of today, and as I type we’re in ninth. One of those [...]

It feels nice to win again. Even if it was a bit lucky in the end, every team is due a bit of that now and again. It’s our turn.
KSC started bright, missing several good chances before giving us a present- keeper Markus Miller misjudged a long ball from Arne Friedrich, allowing Gojko Kacar [...]

Hertha and I both had weekend work-related trips, with the boys going off to Hanover and me to Chicago. Of course, my trip made me unable to watch theirs. In fact, it didn’t even let me see much of what happened until now.
And what a whirlwind of excitement I missed. Hannover 96 have been [...]

You mean a game between two injury-or-suspension-hit teams in indifferent form wasn’t going to be super-exciting?
Er, well, that’s what can really be said about today’s game. It wasn’t all that interesting. It was a 0-0 draw against Hamburg, who’ve been in a bit of a slide lately and were missing some of their best players [...]

The thing about Werder Bremen is that, even now, you don’t know which Werder Bremen will show up. Will it be the one that beat Arminia Bielefeld 8-1, or the one that lost to Duisburg? Majestic or tragic? Thrilling or mundane? You never know, with Bremen.
After they scored inside of the first minute- Fritz [...]

Why do we keep dropping points to Cottbus? Do we think the name Energie is cool? (It kind of is, I must admit.) Because we don’t have much of anything that can be called a derby, so we must do our best to keep the one we have in the Bundesliga? Because Chancellor Merkel makes [...]

That just about sums up Sunday’s game against Schalke 04. Not bad. Not good enough, but not bad. Considering that Schalke are definitely a decent team and we played well enough against them, we can hold our heads up despite the loss.
Still, though, I’m not sure how we managed to lose this game. (Well, I [...]

I’m back home from Anaheim, having had my fill of sun (I am a very pale person- I managed to get a sunburn sitting on a patio having lunch), and now I’m back home with the rain. And back to Hertha.
Making A Not-So-Interesting Game Way More Entertaining
By: Abby | 2 Comments
Earlier today (or tonight, depending on in what time zone you’re in- for me this was all happening around noon), the Hertha boys were off in Dortmund to play the men in those nice bumblebee outfits. And the good run of form continued- we picked up a point at the Signal-Iduna Park in a 1-1 [...]
