Reports from England suggest that the apocalypse may be near.
English Premier League champions Chelsea, rampant this year again, managed only a 1-1 draw with fellow Londoners Charlton Athletic. It was their first non-win at home this year and only the third all season in 23 matches.
But more shocking was the reaction of Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho. The self-described 'Special One' was, if you can believe it, humble.
He praised Charlton and noted that his team was lacking focus and intensity.
This is possibly the first time in his managerial career in England that he didn't blame a non-win on the officials, on the other manager or team or on evil plots by the Premier League or Football Association.
Perhaps this magnanimity is merely another ploy by Mourinho to shock the rest of the league into disorientation.
