Jornada 4 Recap: Logjammin’ At the Top O’ The Table
By: Greg |Four matches have been played and only three points separate first place from tenth. While I don’t necessarily expect Nacional and Leixões to be top o’ the table contenders when it’s all said and done, as I’ve intimated in the past, the matches at the start of the season count for just as many [...]
Jornada 4 Pre-Cap: Benfica Protect the Fortress da Luz
By: Greg |Since O Belem and Sexy Leixy still have a match to play today, I’ll reserve the weekly superlatives (as I have in the past) for tomorrow’s full recap.

However, now that I have my own Portuguese team blog [...]
Jornada 2 Recap: Nacional in First Place, Classico Ends In A Draw
By: Greg |I’m in surprisingly decent shape this morning after a torrid weekend of drinking my face off and manning the grill for twenty people yesterday. As you probably already know, Quaresma dipped on Porto and headed to Inter Milan with fellow Portuguese midfielder Pelé and some cold hard cash coming Porto’s way.
