That name is impossible to take seriously. Spurs let Young Boys have their way with them.

Spurs roll over as Young Boys put balls behind tender.

Tender can't hold Young Boys balls.

This is possibly the best 'Huddle" post yet.

"Spurs almost get a hold of Young Boys, but they escape in the end."

Before match: Spurs look forward to meeting Young Boys.
After match: Spurs disappointed about result with Young Boys.

Spurs offer a night of hard drinking to Young Boys after playing game with balls.

For the love of Young Boys, why are you derailing the greatest huddle in SpoFi history with this Favre talk?

Yeah yeah, he's playing again. Like we didn't all know he was coming back. The nerve of some people.

I'm surprised no-one brought up the name of their previous stadium.

Brought to you by the team that did the fishing goal celebration... The human bicycle goal celebration.

They seem to enjoy these things.

Can't find a link, but lots of news here that the Braves have traded prospects for Derrick Lee.

Owly, The Wankdorfquartier stadium? Too easy.
