(City Beware. Herrreeee's Scholes.)
Although a very dramatic and important FA Cup battle between Man U and Man City took place today, it was highly overshadowed by the most important news of 2012 (for real): Manchester United legend Paul Scholes has come out of retirement so suit up in the middle of the pitch for the vaunted Red Devils who are experiencing an injury crisis. Scholes was used as a 2nd half substitute in United's 3-2 victory over hated City and although there was significant rust (a Scholesy giveaway led to City's second goal), his mere presence on the pitch raised the fighting spirit of slumping United to beat their nearest neighbors. Although Scholes will certainly need some time to get into game shape, his glorious right foot will no doubt provide perfectly weighted balls to United's wingers and strikers. This boost is clearly the biggest news of 2012 in any sports. Better yet, I would call it the biggest news in the world. Fuck the NFL playoffs, fuck politics and upcoming elections, fuck even the bitter Bruins Canucks rivalry. The Prince has returned. Need I say more?
