The Irish Coffee turns 56 years old today. It was invented by San Francisco Chronicle columnist Stanton Delaplane on November 10th, 1952 at San Francisco’s Buena Vista Cafe, based on a drink he had at Shannon Airport in Ireland.

This afternoon, the Buena Vista Cafe will attempt to win a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records by mixing a 12-gallon Irish coffee in a custom-made goblet.

Manchester City’s Stephen Ireland has continued his insistence that he’s happy to be without his country as the midfielder continues his play without representing Ireland.

After stepping away from his International status after allegedly inventing a story about his grandmothers dying, Ireland’s 4 goals in 6 International appearances will seemingly stay where they are.

“I haven’t missed international football. Not at all,” the 22 year old said.  “”It’s just that since I walked away, I feel like I’m better off being away from it instead of going back to it. It’s helped me to concentrate on my club football.”

“The Premier League is getting harder and harder, there are no easy games. It’s very competitive so as I said at the moment it’s best to stay away [from Ireland] right now.”

Man City and sometimes Ireland midfielder Stephan Ireland had a busy week with taking delivery on his 90 thousand Pound 2008 Range Rover that he had Pinked Out and having a new Republic of Ireland boss named. After inventing a crazy story about the deaths of his two grandmothers to get out of back to back international road games last year, Ireland has only featured for the Premiership side since and with the relationship between Svenny and new FAI boss Giovanni Trapattoni, the door for his return might once again creek open for the 21 year old with 4 goals in 6 International matches.
