• Arsenal 0-0 Blackburn. A sluggish performance by Arsenal and a couple of amazing saves by Blackburn goalie Brad Friedel (United States, holla) earned Blackburn a rematch of this one in their own building. Friedel got his hand to a Thierry Henry shot, and then got up quickly to deny Justin Hoyte on the rebound. Video here.
• Middlesbrough 2-2 West Brom. There'll be a replay of this one, too, as Middlesbrough just refuses to beat lower level teams in the FA Cup. West Brom, who are on track to be a Premiership team again next year, forced the tie with a couple of come-from-behind goals.
• Chelsea 4-0 Norwich. They struggled a bit in the first half, but the second half was an out-and-out Chelsea ass-beating. They were a little bit lucky to have the lead at the half, after the Canaries (I love that) hit the post, but poured it on in the second half. Wright-Phillips, Drogba, Essien, and Shevchenko were your goal scorers. Chelsea did lose defender Khaild Boulahrouz, though. He's out for about six weeks.
• Manchester United 1-1 Reading. Reading just tied it up on a header from Brynjar Gunnarsson in the 66th minute. About fifteen minutes remain.

MJD,
You gotta quit posting scores so early in the day. I'm trying my best to get more into metric football, but you're just fucking killing me here.
You don't see the high five performed with feet too often these days.
Chelsea did lose defender Khaild Boulahrouz
I had some Khalid Boulahrouz for breakfast. Needed more chickpeas.
Soccer blows. You guys are fags. Blah blah blah...
Sorry, thought I'd just get it out of the way.
Arsenal will never cease to make the simple more difficult. How much did we beat Blackburn by ... with 10 men?
Don't mind me. I'm just looking for spastic children.
Carry on.
I was at the last Arsenal vs Blackburn game in london. Arsenal made it look easy, but I guess not today
It must have pained MJD greatly to write a paragrah that long about a Reading match.
After their loss, Norwich went to the Linton Travel Tavern to drown their sorrows with a few ladyboys.
