Happy Birthday, San Gigi

By: agiamba | January 27th, 2010
   

The great Gianluigi Buffon turns 32 today. The greatest goalkeeper in the world, with an outstanding sense of loyalty, he certainly wins bonus points for adding a link to his wife’s site on his main page. (Don’t get lost in there)

Tanti auguri, Gigi. Hoping for a win over Inter today as your present.

    Official formation from Tuttojuve. Poor Paolucci.

    A disposizione: 13 Manninger, 15 Zebina, 27 Paolucci, 32 Yago, 33 Legrottaglie, 39 Marrone, 43 Boniperti;
  • Jorid: i love Birindelli's face after his rebound-tunnel-save vs Lazio.

    My favorite thing about Gigi, though, is how he celebrates his miracles like a gol-scorer... screaming, yelling, jumping. Awesome.

    and of course his frequent thumbs-up to opposing players as if to say "great fkn shot, man. can't believe i saved that."
  • Jorid
    I just want a good performance with no blatant idiocies. As long as we put up a fight and we look like a team, I don't really care whether we win or lose.
  • agiamba
    So what are we hoping for today? Me? Lose by less than 3 goals.
  • Jorid
    TeamGREASE: Inzaghi's face is priceless after Gigi stops his header in the 03 C.L final.
  • some SuperGIGI porn: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...

    sofia will probably be the only one NOT embarrassed to sing along with video... I swear I DON"T want to be Gigi's gf, it's just a very catchy tune.

    that's too optimistic, oliviero! it'll be hard to even equal gigi's level now
  • Jorid
    Happy Birthday Godson and Happy Birthday Gigi.
  • Oliviero
    I think we should sign both of his kids to 25 year contracts effective immediately. One of the two is bound to be a phenom just out of statistical probability...
  • j
    great idea! and after the naming rights have finished, i say we start naming all other sections in the stadium
  • Neo
    It was also Giovinco's birthday yesterday, who turned 23.
  • marco
    Perfect tribute for the great Gigi Buffon? http://www.football-italia.net...
  • Justin
    Happy Birthday Gigi! You also Godson.

    And Amen Gaetano. Benitez would be a mistake. There are other options that are better as pointed out by in the previous post.
  • Gaetano
    Buon compleano gigi!


    I think we'd be making a big mistake if we sign rafa benitez as our manager.
  • j
    happy birthaday gigi! 3 new players and our defence could be a fortress
  • Godson Hernandez
    thanks Nnahoj
  • ooBia

  • Nnahoj
    Happy birthday Gigi, and happy bithday to you too Godson.
  • Godson Hernandez
    Wow. We share the same birthdate...........except the year
  • The greatest goalkeeper of all time surely.
  • Comrade
    Gigi is not yet married. Alena is his girlfriend.
  • Dattebayo
    Legend.
  • HolyMann
