Mexico's football teams must be feeling like they are going through foreclosure right now. A few days ago, Hugo Sanchez got the axe after his U-23 side failed to qualify for the Olympics. Now, it looks like Leonardo Cuellar is going to join him in the unemployment line. His women's national team lost to Canada tonight, 1-0. And they won't be going to Beijing, either. Ouch.

That has to be a huge irony down in Ciudad Juarez: Canada and the USA fighting it out on Saturday for the CONCACAF Women's Pre-Olympic Tournament title in Mexico. It makes you wonder if there will be anyone bothering to come down there.

This April has been a crazy month. Mugabe is still alive (unfortunately) and has become a dirty, blind old ape willing to fight to the death to keep his patch of wasteland that is Zimbabwe. A 75-year old lady dies making an illegal left turn after getting the Blue Line crash into her. A couple of teen girls lose their lives after being thrown out of a taxi, but not before trying to stab the driver. David Petraus wants more blood. China is trying in vain to reel Tibet in. Beijing 2008 is poised to become Moscow 1980 Revisited. Memphis' John Calipari and his team are being barbecued for their inept free throw shooting by sportswriters who feast on writing articles of futility so that they can earn their peanuts. The Dirtbag baseball team has now become so beatable, Cerritos College would blast bad boy out of the Blair.
Darfur is still Darfur. Iraq is still Iraq. And the feud between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton is still that.
Fuck. And a third of this already Bedlam-infested year ain't over yet! Oh God.
