I Wouldn't Want to Go Back Either Hernan......

"Chelsea are thinking about the Champions League and, with their league commitments as well, maybe they will forget about me." He also said: "I know that they would like me to return but it is a question of what motivates me the most." - Crespo

Definitely one of my favorite footballers.

It's interesting that this is news at all and maybe there are alterior motives, but good for him.

A true sign your career may be over...

"Zidane gave his backing to Ronaldo after struggling to get his call connected at the Paris hospital because the telephone operator did not know who the three times World Player of the Year was."

At least my team doesn't have any cartoon characters on it...

I mean, seriously....


How ashamed would you be to root for a team like that?

Inter v. Liverpool TODAY

it's about freeking time.

clearly it's tough these days to be confident in any way in my beloved reds, but i've seen them rise to the occasion in europe too many times to write them off completely. my prediction? 1-1.

and there is the small matter of three words that can't help but give me some hope:
torres versus materazzi. that should be good for at least one penalty...

FA Cup: Benitez eyes chance of silverware

A quote from the wannabe evil villian:

"Your aim is to win every trophy but sometimes you have to be realistic and sometimes you cannot. "

Yeah, sometimes.....or EVER.

What's funny is I believe I heard some pretty disparaging remarks last year about how the FA Cup is worthless...I guess it's not as worthless as everyone wants to believe. Or maybe it's only worthless when you are one of those teams who isn't going to get ANY silverware at all? *Shrug*

Well, here's to Frankie and Terry drinking from the FA cup again thsi year! may it be filled with Rafa's sweet, sweet tears.

Inter > Liverpool

I guess this is the added level of clarity I needed to bring to the table.

I'm finished!

FANTASYSHIP - transaction

c+c made a bid for eto'o from ryan, which was rejected in favor of keeping him and dropping david villa outright.

c+c then claim david villa and drop roque santa cruz.
-------------------------
since villa was only just dropped, waiver priority would rule should any of you wankers want to put in a claim in the next 24 hours.

though you'll notice that our priority is #2... second only to ryan himself, so it wouldn't do you much good - except to push us to the end of the line for the future - hmm. maybe i shouldn't have mentioned that.

scruples suck.

Are there dangers like this on the pitch

Last night's Panthers/Sabres game. enjoy the graphic content.
