Announcement

thebesteleven.com domain name may be down for a couple of days (or more, hopefully not) starting tomorrow.   I've been corresponding with eNom and Google to find a solution to a technical issue involving domain renewal and have yet to come to a resolution.  They have assured me they are "hard at work" trying to resolve the issue.

Those of you that have been regular visitors at TB11 may remember the site going down last year for a couple of weeks.  Yep, same issue this year but hopefully I've caught it far enough ahead and the site won't go offline at all.

I've never had such a hard time giving someone money..

Thanks for reading The Best Eleven.  Hopefully I'll be able to return to regular posting next week.
