Do I smell musk
This Friday, it’s #4 Maryland vs. #2 North Carolina in a championship rematch. In case you forgot, the Terps are the defending champions, not the higher-ranked, blueblood, wine-and-cheese Tar Heels. Just clarifying for you.
With the exception of field hockey and maybe women’s lacrosse, the Terp men’s soccer team is currently the most dominant program in Maryland athletics. The Baltimore Sun has a really interesting article on the man behind the success, head coach Sasho Cirovski, who rose to prominence from nothing — and I’m talking like Eastern Bloc nothing, not America nothing. Seriously, he grew up in a barn. In a village called Vratnica. I would speculate that Vratnica may have an odor problem.
Occasionally I poke fun at Sasho for resembling one Joey Tribbiani. And I stand by that poking. But coach Cirovski built this program from jack squat, just like he done did his own self. You see? You see the symmetry there? The allemegoriness? It’s just too sweet. And I’d be crazy not to pick his group for the upset this Friday.
Tribbiani. haha… I agree with that.

The Terps won 1-0!
Woo-hoo! Take that, you overrated wine-and-cheese, get-high-rankings-on-a-silver-platter Tar Heels. Welcome to the Barnyard, bitches.
As a native of Vratnica, I can assure you that the village has no odor problem — unless you hate clean mountain air. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vratnica and, by all means, visit Vratnica in person sometime. You won’t be sorry.
Incidentally, Vratnica has a long tradition as a soccer powerhouse (for a tiny place) and has produced several professional players who have played in the big leagues internationally.
