It's that time of year again, when we face the ugliest rivalries and seek resolution through honest competition. After the success of 2010's Pie vs. Cake tournament, we realized that with just one short season of war, we may find peace. And if pies and cakes sparked the passions of hungry stomachs, dogs and cats stoke the ever-burning embers within each and every one of us, the warmth and light we share with all living things. We have to go deeper. Thus we now look to settle the centuries-old grudge between cats and dogs. Brace yourselves.

Kai Havertz came off the bench to seal a much-needed victory for Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, as the Blues came from behind to beat London rivals West Ham 2-1.
Thomas Tuchel s team were booed off after failing to manage a single shot on target in a dismal first half, and fell behind shortly after the hour when Antonio converted following a goalmouth scramble.
But Ben Chilwell poked past Lukasz Fabianski to level the scores with 15 minutes remaining, and Havertz was on hand to turn the full-back s cross home to put the Blues ahead late on.
There was still time for Maxwel Cornet to see a fine strike disallowed for West Ham, but Chelsea ultimately held on to bounce back from Tuesday s loss to Southampton after an enthralling match.

Fit-again Southampton forward Jay Rodriguez is dreaming of a return to the England fold.
Rodriguez is back playing again after a 16-month lay-off due to a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament.
The 26-year-old marked his competitive return with a goal in Southampton s 1-1 draw at home to Midtjylland in their UEFA Europa League play-off last week.
