Fair to say we’re unlikely to get any invitations to his son’s birthday party anytime soon.

I don’t even know what to say anymore. As Vince posted below, the fact that the gold chain has his initials means this was clearly premeditated, which pushes the charge from idiocy to first-degree douchebaggedry.

Hat-tip to Vince and DirtyTackle for the find.

Player Ratings: Juventus Season 2009-2010

By: agiamba | Comments 146 Comments

Just as in the last few years, I figured I’d do one giant Pagelle for the entire season before the new season gets too hectic, as I did in 2007-2008, and 2008-2009. I’ve tried to remain objective of course- I’m no fan of Zebina or Melo, but I’m trying to rate them based on their performances, not their fighting with the fans. Besides, they ended up playing terribly anyways. In general, I follow similar numbering systems to the pagelle in Italy: Read the rest of this entry »

Every 4 years, The World Cup manages to pull plenty of new fans into “soccer.” I can definitely see that here in America, where a decent run by the Yanks managed to really pique some interest. Since then, I’ve had a handful of friends, previously who showed no interest in soccer ask me about different leagues and eventually, “what team should I support?” Read the rest of this entry »

STOP THE F***ING PRESSES- Z3BINA to AEK Athens

By: agiamba | Comments 67 Comments

SOCCER-EUROPA/
So ready to take this shirt off for the last time…

Not fully official yet, but looks that way. Free transfer.

Thanks for filling the seat of “resident douchebag” on the team for far too long, JZ, but after a trial year, it looks like Felipe Melo will indeed fill your shoes admirably.
