Reason #2986 that Jeremy Toulalan is so awesome

By: Inara | Comments 32 Comments

Excuse this blatant excuse to pimp Jeremy Toulalan some more, but I can’t help myself. Thanks to the amazing detective powers of Jennifer, we now have further proof of Toulalan’s adorableness dorkiness.
Please watch the following video (at the 11 second mark) to see La Toule show off his moves. It’s short, so if you blink, [...]

It’s Time to Place Your Bets Again

By: Inara | Comments 29 Comments

Betway has once again published their odds for the Ligue 1 2008/2009 season. Lyon are the favorites to win the championship, which would make it their eighth straight title. But unlike last season, an upset isn’t as far-fetched.

For the Ladies: Boyz + Ink

By: Inara | Comments 19 Comments

Last week, Lyon Foot published a hot collection of Lyon players with tattoos. It’s a different sort of look at OL players, whose reputations normally come across as nice family guys. Which they still are, but sometimes we like to pretend they can be badass.
For me, the biggest surprise was Anthony Mounier. I mean, [...]

I’m Not Dead

…Just busy.
For the rest of the month, I’ll mostly be over at the France World Cup Blog or on ESPN Soccernet. But I will have a post up tomorrow about the progress of our international players at Euro 2008. There isn’t anything to report on the transfer front, but don’t worry, I’m still on [...]

By: Inara | Comments 13 Comments

Stripping down to his underwear seems to be an alarming habit. But at least he has an excuse this time - Lyon beat Sedan to make it to the Coupe de France finals for the first time since 1976.

I feel like I’ve been writing a lot about Grosso recently. He’s doing something crazy every [...]

Raymond Was Young Once…

By: Inara | Comments 11 Comments

I admit that I have a rather unhealthy obsession with Raymond Domenech. Even if his decision making is suspect, his tact is nonexistent, and his best quality is his amazing ability to piss people off, I just can’t help liking him. Maybe it’s because everyone else hates him, or maybe it’s because he’s a Lyon [...]

Guess whose delectable round bottom Jean-Alain Boumsong is carrying away?
…and I can’t believe I said that.

Not much is happening on the Lyon front today, so here is a picture that I think sums up yesterday’s match against Sochaux. If you’re feeling creative, post what you think the caption should be (just think [...]
