clock … watching time, the only true currency

After playing a stalling game all night, Arsenal pulls out a 0-0 draw and moves on to the Champions League final. Tense, yet boring, for an Arsenal fan…with a penalty kick save by Lehmann in the final three minutes. Phew!

I can’t imagine the Gunners would get by Barcelona (the favorite to get past Inter Milan tomorrow night, in the other semi-final), but maybe the magic missing from the Premier League will follow Arsenal to Paris in mid-May.

Once again, happy American disinterest let me avoid the score until watching the game this evening. I hope ESPN2 also runs the final.
