Issue VII: Golden Boot

In which I publicly out myself as a football fan

Hello fellow toads,

Happy Toad Tuesday! I’m so glad I have this newsletter to remind me what day of the week it is. I’m keeping it very short and barely on time today because all I have done lately is pack and watch sports (football and old seasons of RuPaul’s Drag Race) and I am ~exhausted~.

I take you now to the real hard hitting news…

Son and Salah Share Golden Boot

By Maggie “Football Fancier” McDonald

Last Sunday, two of my favorite Premier League footballers reaped the rewards for their golden feet…the Golden Boot! Tottenham’s Son Heung-Min and Liverpool’s Mo Salah are sharing the boot for the 2021-22 season with 23 goals each.

If you’re not familiar with the Premier League, every season ends with one final day called Championship Sunday where every team plays one last match at the same time. Before Championship Sunday, Sonny was trailing Salah by a goal, but they scored twice and once, respectively, to secure their co-boot.

Go lads!

This issue of Toad Talk is dedicated to my favorite pair of shoes and the older backup version of the same shoes that I wear for crustier occasions.
