The Bundesliga started last weekend and like all Bayern fans, I was a little depressed that they lost to Mönchengladbach at home, which is incomprehensibly ridiculous. That said, today was international friendly day and while most people apparently hate this (“It’s too close to the start of the Premier League season / immediately after the start of the Bundesliga season / some arbitrary time frame before or after whatever other league you support!”), my love for die Mannschaft outweighs any anger I feel towards FIFA’s scheduling silliness.
