Nah, out of Chester. You're thinking of the Benjamin Franklin Bridge.

Chester on one end and Jersey on the other.

May as well jump off the bridge.

I suppose it's better than the Anacostia and the Potomac, but would you really want to jump into the Delaware?

fockers.

It even hurts me that the head groundskeeper was last a member of the Virginia Tech groundscrew.

It's got to be better than the Cuyahoga, especially when it's on fire.

The Mbombela Stadium in Nelspruit is looking good. Six more weeks...!

Zebra!

Do you think they pronounce it zeh-brah over there - like the UK?

Philly on one end, Camden on the other...I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy

awesome zebra stripes

their pronunciation sounds more like 'dinner'

Do people eat zebra? I would think so...

OTC coming in handy holding up that roof!

The Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane is ready for June...

Sign him up - He's faster than Emilio

I liked it when the guy who retrieved him gave him a smack.

Bittersweet night in Morecambe... final match at Christie Park, and it's a playoff semi-final second leg. But they lost the first leg at Dagenham and Redbridge 6-nil.

This is cool. A time lapse of the pitch being laid at Dublin's soon to be opened Aviva Stadium...

I like all the glass they were able to incorporate into the Aviva. I'm sad I never made it to Landsdowne.

It was kind of a dump, but I had a terrific time there at the Ireland-US friendly back in '02. Even got a photo on the pitch, thanks to ESPN commentator (and really nice man) Tommy Smyth.

Have you ever been to magnificent Dalymount Park? Ramshackle doesn't even begin to cover it. Mind it does have one new stand which makes the other piecemeal bit look even more out of place.
