An addition to the Juventus Offside…

By: agiamba | March 30th, 2008

Hi all,

I’m Alessio and I’ve joined with Roberto to write for the Juventus Offside’s page. My real name is Aaron, Alessio is a tribute to my favorite player of all time (take a wild guess) so you all have probably seen me post around for quite a while, I’m kind of all over the Italy Offside pages…I’ve got a lot of free time.

Just a bit about me- I’m Italian-American, thanks to my dad, my mothers side of the family is pretty much WASP. My family is historically from Foggia, in the southeast part of Italy, not far from Bari, the capital of the Apulia region and my families “hometown.”
I’m early 20s, from upstate New York, originally, and actively support my hometown soccer team. (USL-1 Rochester Rhinos) Now I live/go to university in New Orleans. I’ve been a Juventino since birth, for those who don’t know, Juventus is extremely popular in southern Italy.
I created the largest Facebook group for Juventus, which has grown and grown to ~8k members. and I’m very excited to be writing for this great community.

edited: I speak Italian not quiet fluently, but closel, from learning from my dad and from taking it in school. I can gladly translate interviews and stuff if you give me a bit of time.

Darren is an awesome guy. hes really cool and when he coached up here his teams always did well. i never had the luxery of having him as a coach but my brother did and he loved it. He always wanted to go to practices and games when he was his coach so I am going to assume hes a good coach. I'm sure he will do fine. He also used to play for the Van. Whitecaps. There is actually a picture of him playing hanging in then CSA HQ in Toronto haha. its pretty cool. I think his contract is 2 year right??

I probably did. I live on the hill right above SUNY Binghamton and many of my friends from home go there. Small world, I am glad upstate New York is well represented on this site, Ryan at the Sevilla blog is from Rochester to and a few commentors on my blog, Real Madrid, are from Rochester/Syracuse.
