Round of 16 and Rrroll Up

 Rrroll Up the Rim to Win and Bayern's first leg against Arsenal in the Champions League fell within a day of each other so these are double duty nails. Rrroll up thumbs (for rolling) with little coffee cups. On the left fingers is one of Bayern's mottos (Mia san mia = we are who we are) and a heart. On the right hand is the crest done in red and white with a bit of blue sparkle to decrease the contrast.

Liverpool Carling Cup

For Liverpool's Carling Cup game on the 26th of March, and the return of Roll Up, and Bayern's game with Basel in the Champions League, there was a new set of nails. On the thumb's were Rrroll Up cups. On the right hand were parts of iconic Liverpool buildings - from left to right the Liver Building, Port Authority, and Town Hall. Aslo the Carling Cup on the pinkie. On the left hand, two FC Bayern nails (they didn't turn out very well), the Liver bird for LFC and the Bluebird for Cardiff City. And Liverpool won (at the last possible moment... but won!)!

Rrroll up the Rim to Win!

I feel like this will be my year. I say that every year though... The Roll Up odds have not applied to me for a couple years now, with wins in single digits while coffees bought reach the 70 and 80+ mark. Sometimes I wonder if it's a test of my loyalty. A while back I wrote a prayer to say before each cup of coffee. It ran something like this:
"Dear Tim Horton, I thank you for this coffee I am about to drink. Please let it have the success you had in your career and not that of the Maple Leafs."
It didn't work. Then I thought perhaps I'd offended the coffee gods and removed the prayer from my routine. Still losses. But this year, definitely my year. Let the free coffees be plentiful! Not this cup though, it told me to play again. As if I needed a reminder.
