League One represent

5/19/2008 5:37:07 PM

while i love watching premier league soccer, i have no way of being affiliated with any team so i just watch and respect their level of play. id have to go over to europe and check things out before blindly picking a squad.

Are you Italian? Who's using this alias now?

^yes...my fathers side of the family is Italian. And no, this is NOT an alias...its just a back up username for my suspended username.

I grew up on Italian football.

no one, besides evan, likes chelski cause in abramovich's first 2 years after taking the club over, they spent this much money to buy players:

300 million pounds (US$549.3 million)

5/19/2008 6:08:30 PM

I saw Chelsea play live as well... at West Ham... West Ham beat them 1-0, a fascist scored one of the goals and people rioted. It was awesome... therefore I like the Hammers.

5/19/2008 6:09:13 PM

paulol di canio

5/19/2008 6:10:12 PM

Yeah, DiCanio... it was awesome.. It actually gave West Ham hope to stay up but they ended up drawing the week after and were relegated..

Go Hammers, I know some kickass WestHam fans. They are a solid squad.

5/19/2008 6:36:17 PM

5/19/2008 6:46:24 PM

di canio is one ugly motherfucker

5/19/2008 6:47:00 PM

lol so is this guy:

5/19/2008 6:52:12 PM

5/19/2008 7:57:33 PM

Hibernian in Cary

5/19/2008 9:02:57 PM

is it really gonna be on at the hibernian?

5/20/2008 12:27:28 AM

what else would they play at like 3pm during the day?

5/20/2008 12:28:30 AM

true

3pm on a wednesday isn't exactly a prime spot

i may just have to head out there instead

5/20/2008 12:31:44 AM

don't want to be tackled by him...

[Edited on May 20, 2008 at 12:45 AM. Reason : wrong account]

5/20/2008 12:45:34 AM

hahah why? these clowns are gonna be in the uefa cup next year...not champ. league, fuckin rejects at ac milan

5/20/2008 12:55:02 AM

Gatuso was the bomb in the world cup as far as hard tackles is concerned. In my opinion, he's a great tackler but not so great on the ball

well they DID win the champions league last year. scandals or no scandals.

So where are people watching??

5/21/2008 10:14:41 AM

I don't understand how Chelsea fans are more bandwagon than ManYoo... considering most college aged fans started watching/following soccer around the time manyoo was winning CL in 99 and had Beckham and all Giggs/Scholes in their prime, etc. Both teams spend a lot of money, win a lot of games, have huge fanbases... I'm not calling fans on here of either team bandwagon, just saying in general, if you call a Chelsea fan a bandwagon fan, you'd probably have to call a United fan one too.

5/21/2008 10:26:09 AM

^ on point, exactly what i was trying to convey earlier

"vinylbandit: Because they spend and spend and spend and spend and have two first teams worth of players and don't play them and they turn to crap."

I agree with that, they've turned my favorite player into a benchwarming laughingstock.

5/21/2008 10:32:23 AM

im watching this at home unless theres a better place

5/21/2008 10:49:31 AM

I would give my sac to watch this at Hibernian in Cary today... unfortunately the closest decent Irish Pub around here is in the City and I have to work today...

5/21/2008 11:30:10 AM

This game should be fun:

Tevez, Rooney, Ronaldo, Giggs vs. Ballack, Drogba, Essien

WORD. Personally, I want Chelsea to win, but mostly because most my friends are ManU fans.

I still can't decide where to go to watch this.

5/21/2008 11:55:16 AM

i'll be at the hibernian

5/21/2008 11:57:06 AM

so is anyone watching this over the internet?

I'm trying to find a website hosting it for free, but havent found anything yet. any tips are greatly appreciated

5/21/2008 1:20:08 PM

It's on ESPN360 if you're one of the lucky 7 Americans that get that (that aren't on a college campus)... I really hope they do a "free trial" during Euro 2008...

[Edited on May 21, 2008 at 1:23 PM. Reason : like they did for the world cup]

5/21/2008 1:22:22 PM
