Reality Hits Hard

By: Paul | Comments 4 Comments

Did that game really just happen at San Mames?
Actually, did that game even happen at all?
No, actually, did Athletic really win their first three games???
Anybody got a cigarette?

What Goes Up Must Come Down

By: Paul | Comments 5 Comments

Athletic were flying high. Three victories in a row to begin the season, with a chance to make it four in a row for the first time since anybody reading this blog right now was born (if I’m wrong about that, correct me). Yesterday, Athletic had their test against Tenerife. That’s right- after three wins [...]

Athletic Club Merchandise- Part 2

By: Paul | Comments 1 Comment

I figured this might be worth a post, because I don’t know how many people would see it if posted as a comment to my previous post. I realize this post may be somewhat pointless, but I know first-hand how difficult Athletic gear is to get a hold of so I am spreading the word [...]

Back From The Dead/3 Wins in a Row (AKA Our Llorente is Better than your Llorente)!

By: Paul | Comments 5 Comments

I’m not your typical college student. I enjoy good beer. In fact, I review beers online and on Saturday, I decided to review a Sierra Nevada Anniversary Ale (if you’re into beer, try it- it’s good). After a little while, some friends came over and my roommate and I finished the 12 pack we had [...]

Athletic 3-Austria Wien 0: Lions Roar

By: Paul | Comments 4 Comments

Athletic continued their Europa League campaign yesterday, opening the group stage with a 3-0 win over Austria Wien. I personally did not see the game due to my class schedule, but the scoreline tells it all: Athletic have found their form. They opened up the La Liga campaign with two wins, and yesterday proved their [...]

Athletic Merchandise

By: Paul | Comments 6 Comments

In a previous post, reader “Ritxard in Hawai’i” posted a comment stating: “The tapa bars of Seattle are the place to look for ACB gear! Try the Bilbao Club or Tango Bar across the expressway. But, I have been trying to find a Leones jersey for months. Is there any website (other than bidding on [...]

Gameday 9/17: Athletic Club vs. Austria Wien

By: Paul | Comments No Comments

Tomorrow’s was a game I really wanted to live blog for, but, because this is a Thursday during college, that is simply not going to happen due to a day full of classes.
Anyway, here’s the squad for the game: Iraizoz, Toquero, Amorebieta, Etxeita, David Lopez, Llorente, Yeste, Gabilondo, San Jose, Armando, Susaeta, Iraola, Etxeberria, Gurpegi, [...]

A Lame Win Puts the Lions at the Top of La Liga

By: Paul | Comments 4 Comments

Today, Athletic played Xerez and barely won, with the only goal coming from an own goal by Xerez. Because last night was a crazy night for me (Saturday night for a college student, I’m sure you understand), I woke up late, had to meet some people for lunch, and only saw about 20 minutes of [...]
