Chris Hughton to Save West Ham United

The rumors are everywhere that West Ham are looking at Chris Hughton IF Avram Grant fails.


I don't get it. Who's waiting, and why? Might as well break out the posters saying "Welcome Chris!"

The 52 year-old manager who brought Newcastle from Zero to Somewhat Stable If Not For Insane Owner, would be the absolute perfect fit for a club like West Ham, who happen to be floundering in relegation and underachievement. It'd almost be like he never left Tyneside!

Interestingly enough, Hughton once wore the Claret and Blue as a player. Maybe it's just me, but I feel like I've a knack for these things. I guess we shall see.

Ronaldinho Going to Los Angeles Galaxy

OK, not really. It's nowhere near official, but trust me (or your own brain) on this one. Rumors are flying everywhere, and all signs are pointing towards it.



We all know Fat Ronaldinho loves to party. And we all know that Hollywood does nothing but party. LA seems like such a good fit for an aging former-World Footballer of the Year. Plus, it would be another chance to reconnect with David Beckham.

The only thing is, does LA even want Ronnie? For the money and power that he somehow still commands (you'd be surprised how many Wizards jerseys MJ sold), I'd like to think that  MLS doesn't even need Ronaldinho. After a stellar last year building off of true American talent like Edson Buddle, Omar Gonzalez, and Landon Donovan, do they really need a foreigner, making three times the amount the rest of the team does, sitting out half the season, just as Beckham did?
