Frustrating game for all Merengues It’s been 6 years now. We’ve been cursed at the round of 16 stage in the Champions League. For some reason, I thought this would be the year we would break the curse; but Liverpool

The most prestigous game: Real Madrid – Liverpool
Posted: February 22, 2009 in soccer, SportsTags: Anfield, Bernabeu, Champions league, Fernando Gao, Fernando Torres, Inter Milan, Javier Mascherano, Juane Ramos, Lassana Diarra, Liverpool, Manchester United, Pepe, Rafael Benitez, Real Madrid, Steve Mcmanaman, Steven Gerrard, UEFA, Xabi Alonso
Without doubt, this is the tie of the round. Manu-Inter might have something to say but in terms of pure prestige this is the biggest game in World football this month. This is just a mouthwatering match-up
My comments revisited: Rudy Fernandez

I still think his performance was severly underrated. I mean, let’s not forget that anyone who came up against Mr. ‘I get a 50 for practically doing lay-ups and changing in a fake phone booth Howard’ or Mr. ‘I do the same dunks every year and get 50′s because I’m short Robinson’ wasn’t going to [...]
Congratulations Raul

The record is finally broken. His goal against Numancia put him at 307 goals, and his two goals yesterday against Gijon put him at 309 to break the legendary Alfredo Di Stefano’s record. I don’t know how I can put into words how

I’m pumped for this weekend.. Obviously. But I am really looking forward to seeing Rudy Fernandez in the dunk off on Saturday night. He’s slowly developing into one of my favorite players in the NBA. I’ve grown a soft spot for the Blazers this year. The youth, the energy, the crowd, the passion; just fantastic [...]
Soccer Commentary at its best.

Some soccer commentators can bore you to death, and just plain right completely annoy you. Those ones are usually monotone and show no signs of emotion whatsoever – Even in the most dramatic moment. I believe that commentators should be the voice of the crowd. They should reflect all the emotions the stadium is experiencing. When [...]
Stephen A. Smith has officially gone mad?
Posted: February 3, 2009 in basketball, SportsTags: Bryan Colangelo, Chris Bosh, NBA trade rumours, Stephen A. Smith, Toronto Raptors
If you haven’t noticed yet, Toronto Raptors fans are not too fond of ESPN NBA analyst Stephen A. Smith. First he ripped into the Raptors for drafting Charlie V., then there was that whole ’classless’ comment where he compared Chris Bosh to former NBAer Manute Bol, and now sparking rumours that Bosh ‘wants out’ of T-Dot (2:20). This came [...]
