The flight to London never came down ($1k) but everything else is getting cheaper by the day. Long live the Euro!

what a bummer that drogba is out… rio ferdinand probably too

I have to say that playing "friendlies" before the start of WC is idiotic.. At least Maradona got that right.

Wrong thread.  This is for the leagues.  Sweetcell was getting confused so he started his own WC thread.

No kidding.  I'm thinking of paying for Steven Cohen today.  My brother in law is looking to buy a Liverpool jersey just to take a picture of him taking a shit on it. 

I personally, think they should have burned a spanish flag as it was all of Rafa's crappy purchases that really cost them.
seriously. there's fan anger and there's pissing off an entire huge country.
i know that usually i only come in here for half naked guys parading around with their balls . . . but i did find it amusing that this:  http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/37491843/ns/sports-world_cup/ ;  
appeared on the same day in the news when this: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/06/06/AR2010060603321.html ; did.
just one of the latter will cause the former to never occur.

Please, please, please make this happen….

Wesley Sneijder is a £25 million transfer target for Manchester United

does barcelona just have money to burn? not sure why they'd spend £30m+ on another small central midfielder…


Uh, I guess they don't….

Barcelona currently unable to pay wages
34 days until the Prem…

Is the biggest loser of the WC Torres or Liverpool?

Torres performance may put his move away from Anfield in doubt, and if he does move, surely it won't be for Chelsea's original £50 million offer.

Diego Forlan has to be the biggest winner.  And that hurts me to say.
biggest loser has to be torres. liverpool would love to keep him, at least the flag burning fans would.

biggest winner has to be whoever was going to buy him. the kid has just a ton of miles on him

but seriously, forlan was great

basically he'll make an extra £500k a year while injured because everton screwed up.


Yeah, but he has to play for Newcastle.  We'll call it a wash.
nah its the newcastle with only a few cunts, versus the big bag of cunts newcastle from a few years back. it'll be better than riding the pine at goodison park
I can't tell you how angry this would have made me had it happened to a United player…
