Epic Fail by ESPN @ El Clasico broadcast!

Someone should get fired after this HUGE mistake, if you don't know about football (soccer) you shouldn't work at the live broadcast of one of the most anticipated games of the year!

I have to admit that I would have loved to see "Fenomeno" Ronaldo against Messi (both at their highest level) but that is just a dream, this was just an EPIC FAIL by ESPN!

Real Madrid gets Real Criticism

After the disappointing way  that Real Madrid played against Barcelona on Saturday in front of  their fans at the Bernabeu, the criticism of legendary figures can be found in various Spanish and international media. In my point of view, those of Alfredo di Stefano are the hardest to digest, as" Don Alfredo" is the # 1 legend of the "merengues". Here is what the Honorary President of Real Madrid had to 
say:

"They played cornered against an opponent that dominated the midfield throughout the match. " It was a team with no personality, "" This game should provide guidelines on how to deal with the next, because the approach of trying to counterattack Barcelona was clearly not the best. "
"Real Madrid was more heart than order, it was like a "I want but I can't, " said DonAlfredo.

On the other hand he had words of admiration for Messi and Barcelona:
"I like and I admire the dominance of the game that Barcelona has", "Their football is  not to be seen through the eyes but through the soul. They treat the ball with respect, adoration, almost pampering it. Watching this team in action is a delight for all. " About Messi, the Spanish-Argentine stated, "is the best in the world, his football is spectacular, it is an example of professionalism, has no rival".

By the way if you have not read it already, Guti commented, "Madrid signed the best to beat Barca, not to play as Racing" Meaning that Mou shouldn't play like a small team! Well it's true no? A very sad Real Madrid, hopefully they will try to give a joy to their fans soon enough ..... or not! as if I care about them eh?


Cheers lads!

Pele Good, Maradona Better, George BEST!

I'm sure most of you wankers, who believe know much about football, don't even have a clue of who George Best is, you all talk about Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, CR7, Rooney, Drogba, Terry etc, but I think there is a need for you to know about this amazing player. BEST became the first footballer to move from the back pages to the front, earning himself the nickname of ‘the fifth Beatle’ he was the firs rockstar-footballer, Becks and CRonaldo are just lame copies of him.

If ever anybody was a master of womanizing, partying and drinking, it was surely the one and only, the legendary George BEST. He was often missing from training sessions at Manchester United... by Missing I mean Miss Sweden, Miss America, Miss UK... Unfortunately he was the Original Machine of Self-Destruction, as he puts it himself "I was born with a great gift, and sometimes with that comes a destructive streak. Just as I wanted to outdo everyone when I played, I had to outdo everyone when we were out on the town."

Recently my dear friend @jPDela dared to say Giggs was better than him, I would like to quote Sir Alex Ferguson in regards to this issue since many have made comparisons, Ryan Giggs was once called ‘the new George Best’. Sir Alex took no time to dismiss this. “He’ll never be a Best. Nobody will,” said the "boss". “George was unique, the greatest talent our football ever produced easily! At Old Trafford they reckon he had double-jointed ankles. You remember how he could do those 180-degree turns simply by swivelling on his ankles? As well as devastating defenders, that helped him to avoid injuries because he was never really stationary for opponents to hurt him.” There you go Dela, there you go!

-I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered. (My favourite quote, birds=girls in case you dont get it)

-I used to go missing a lot... Miss Canada, Miss United Kingdom, Miss World.
-I've stopped drinking, but only while I'm asleep.
-In 1969 I gave up women and alcohol - it was the worst 20 minutes of my life.
-I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: "What's an IQ?"
Best on Paul Gascoigne.
-I was in for 10 hours and had 40 pints - beating my previous record by 20 minutes.

La Liga's "Clasico"

A few months ago I wrote (using some thoughts from a Mexican football analyst) this note when Barça teared apart real madrid 5-0. 

Why is this Barcelona de best team ever:

1- Guardiola's Barcelona won six cups in 12 months, won the league with 99 points, almost by themselves (and with all  goals scored by barcelona players) made Spain win the World Cup. Defeated madrid five consecutive times. Today they wrote a new chapter of the Football Bible with a 5-0 dedicated to all those amnesic ppl who soon forgot the 2-6 at the Bernabeu with Messi even scoring a marvellous goal against who's considered "the best keeper". You can doubt about God or Religion, but not Pep. Compare Pele and Maradona, but do not dare to compare Messi with the shitty showman who Cristiano Ronaldo is, who by the way seems to be somewhere else when it comes to winning decisive games. The law of gravity is relatively, but not the game that Barcelona displays. Deny that the Earth is round, but dont dare to say that Barca is overrated. If given the evidence, you dont believe this is the best team ever to step on a football pitch, then tell me what the hell it is. 

2-Regardless of my lack of affinity for the Fiesta Brava (bullfighting), now is when I understand why bullfights are banned in Catalunya. What do you need matadores (bullfighters) for, when you have the FC Barcelona? Who can do it better than Xavi, Iniesta and Messi, Pedrito, etc? Why go to the Plaza de Toros (bullring) if the Nou Camp is, more or less the same. Besides  there is no harm to any animal (well except to the ego of animals like Mou or CRonaldo bahaha) Olé, Olé, Olé, Olé, Olé! and more Olé!

3-Never were the actors of this show more successful in previous statements, Cristiano said, "Let's see if they score eight on us." (Oops ... they were short only by three. For once you were right cr7) Guardiola said: "At least this time we will not win 5-0 before playing." (He forgot to add that they would, but now after playing). The only wrong statement was made by Xavi when he said "Mourinho will not make history." (And this so wrong cuz Mou is now part of the "derby" history by being one of the few coaches that lost by five goals to nil).

4-To celebrate its 111st birthday, Barcelona played with eight "canteranos" ( homegrown players), plus two that came into the game later on. Madrid, however sent 10 of its "money can buy players but not cups" players to  the battlefield. On the losing team the beating hurt everyone, but only Iker could hurt to the core of his bones, since he really feels for his club. 

5- Antonio Margarito and Brock Lesnar can rest peacefully knowing that the beatings they took from Pacman Pacquiao and  Cain Velasquez respectively,  aren't even close to the one Barcelona gave real madrid, at least Margarito threw a couple of punches and Lesnar talked less trash than mou n cristiano, real just bended over n took it like any skinny white ass kid would when arriving to any US Jail plus didnt say a word bahahahahaha!
