Roma v What’s-His-Nuts & Co. (Well, The Co. - He’s Hurt, Again)

By: chris | Comments 203 Comments

Roma v Inter
No more cheaters. No more Viola. This is The Game of the campaign for me (give me a call when Lazio at least gets a whiff of mediocrity and we can discuss it). In case you haven’t noticed - or have the intellectual capabilities of bird shit - I hate Inter. HATE Inter. […]

Sister Kissing & Redundant Disappointment

Fiorentina 2 - Roma 2

Game Recap/Liveblog/Running Diary/Shit that went down here
Once again Roma had 3 points in the bag and once again they left with a disappointing draw. Now, a draw with Fiorentina in Firenze is never a bad result, especially for a team as sneaky good as this current Viola squad and without the […]

Liveblogging the Fiorentina-Roma Game (Sepp Blatter Be Damned)

By: chris | Comments 124 Comments

Fiorentina-Roma
FIFA Head Gouda Sepp Blatter has declared live-blogging illegal and wrong and immoral and on the same level as giving a pair of running sneakers to Christopher Reeve, which obviously means I must fulfill my obligations and do just that, live-blog the game. So we’re coming to you live from the Artemio Franchi in Florence, […]

(A gift for the ladies)
Fiorentina v Roma:
So here I am, finished with the Fiorentina preview Monday night - I know, a little early, but I’m still trying to get over that Juve game - and I wake up Tuesday morning to the news that Francesco Totti has pulled out due to an upper thigh injury. […]

Chivu: Roma A “Small Obstacle” To His Love For Inter

By: chris | Comments 25 Comments

This was taken from an interview in Calcio Italia magazine which I so thievishly stole from someone over at Roma Addict (btw, thanks for the thread - much appreciated), and this piece of bullshit deserves its own post.

Juventus Taints Calcio With Their Presence Once Again

Referee Gives Juventus Another Gift, Skepticism Ensues:

Roma 2 - Juve 2
Well, it’s nice to know that old habits still die hard. In the 87th minute of yesterday’s Roma game, the referee abruptly stopped the game with the ball in play after a legal throw in by Cicinho. Why? For time wasting. Which would be a […]

Roma v Serie B Champs: Back To The Grind

By: chris | Comments 111 Comments

Bring On The Cheaters
Those cheatin’ bastards make their way back to the Olimpico, fresh of a 1-0 loss to Udinese at home (I’m cryin’ inside - really, I am) and the loss of about half their roster to injury and Alfa Romeos. Roma? Just the opposite, coming off a commanding 2-0 victory against Dynamo Kyiv […]

By: chris | Comments 69 Comments

This is going to be one of those rare days in between game previews, recaps and diaries over the next few weeks, so let’s kick back, relax and have a cappuccino, sambuca, Tia Maria and Red Bull concoction courtesy of the second biggest cokehead in Sicily (one would assume the first is Nicholas Caglioni) and […]

Roma Takes Control & 3 Points…Again
Normally when I watch games nowadays, I have a pen and piece of paper on the desk in front of me to scratch notes on, to remind myself of little things for the followup and game recaps, because, well, I’m getting to the point where I shouldn’t be allowed in […]
