A little challenge on the pitch anyone? That’s quite a kick on a wet field Franck. Sort of reminds me of that little game MJ and Bird had going for the Big Mac back from the 90’s just without all the outlandish formalities.
Kljestan, Moreno, Robinson and Parkhurst.
One of the most creative, yet overlooked players in the game has finally been recognized as the Castrol best player of the 2008 Euros.
Barcelona’s 28 year old midfielder Xavi Hernandez was chosen by the nine-person Uefa technical panel that left off Cristiano Ronaldo due to Portugal’s early exit.

The guys over at BallerHouse tossed this 2008 Lamborghini Reventon up today after Dupont Registry had it listed for the low, low price of $750k with only 10 miles on it. I’m a huge fan of gun metal grey (or Grigio as the fine wine people like to refer to it as), especially sinec Rob Dyrdek from Rob & Big threw his SUV down in the same color, but this takes it to an all new level. I was telling Ben last week that I couldn’t imagine spending that kind of dough and his response was if you could, you would. I’m starting to believe him now.
While captain Rigobert Song was on the ground receiving medical attention in stoppage time of Cameroon’s 1-0 win over host Ghana in Accra, Reading and fellow Camroonian defender Andre Bikey shoved over a medical assistan, forcing the referee to give him a red card, suspending him for the final Sunday against Egypt, who walloped Drogba’s Ivory Coast 4-1 in the other semi-final.
There’s no denying that I love snowboarding and I’m addicted to Brighton Ski Resort in Utah. Yes, I have a season pass and now that Nike has come out with its Air Force 1 inspired snowboarding boot, I need to give them just a bit of love. Now I’m wondering when we’ll see 59 different colors on this one style.
Paulo Di Canio is a mad man and the argument ends there. Today he’s stated his intentions to one day go back and manage the club he loves, West Ham. Wonder what Alan Curbishley is thinking about all this?
