Location: London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, in the heart of fashionable West London. NOT the London Borough of Kensington and Chelsea.
Nickname: The Blues, The Royals, The Pensioners.
Stately, Non-Commercial Stadium Name: Stamford Bridge.
Crest: In the late 19th century the London Transit Authority experimented with using fire-breathing lions as crossing guards. FAIL.
Season So Far: Into the last eight of the Champions League and the semifinals of the FA Cup, but still a good distance back from United at the top of the table. A late run isn't out of the question but it looks like that ship has sailed, homies.
General vibe to a casual American fan: John Terry slipping in Moscow. They're a JohnnyComeLately thriving under the Russian oil money of Roman "The Krazy Cossack" Abramovich.
