Throttling Catania, Ludovicious & The King
By: chris |Catania 1 v Roma 2
Formality over, and that’s precisely what it looked like: a formality. The game was as much terrible as it was painfully boring, especially towards the second half - at least for me. I’ve had more exciting prostate exams. And, quite frankly, it had the feel of a friendly. (Just like […]
Coppa Catania Liveblog: Ambien Disguised As Calcio

Catania 1 (1) v Roma 1 (2)
GAME
89′ Another foul on Espo. Somebody needs to check that stat. He gets fouled at least 2-3 times every game he comes on.
88′ Curci catching crosses like he’s shagging flies before a baseball game.
87′ Antunes fires one wide. He did quite well today for what was required […]
Coppa Italia Non-Preview
By: chris |So there’s a semi-final cup game tomorrow. Against Catania. Against a team in very serious danger of relegation which has a game in three days. Against Juventus.
Color me shocked they didn’t call up the women’s team. They’ve got about as much depth as the Vatican City national team and a Coppa Italia final run […]

I’d take Giampaolo Pazzini faster than you could say “Alberto Gilardino is a has been”. It was just one line in Gazzetta, they being the ever reliable ones, so it’s not much to get your hopes up over, but it fits, does it not? Another in the line of guys who […]
Words On Aging, Doni & Dealing With Made-Up Transfer Rumors
By: chris |Let’s Talk About Goals
I’ve lost all faith in logic - at least whatever was there to begin with. Two games after The Injury II, Roma is suffering from an acute and severe bout of efficiency.
Shots on goal: 14
Goals: 7
Scoring %: 50*
*(I used my trusted abacus on this one. Fret not, ’tis correct.)
How might one […]
VotD: Six More Years Of Francesco
By: chris |We’ll get to this “game” bs later. News of the day: Totti hopes to play on until he’s 37 or 38. Six more years of Francesco.
This is the part where each of you start lead piping defenders of mid-to-lower table clubs, making sure they stay the @#$% away fron Francesco’s lower half.
(Great vid, as […]

Cliffs Notes Preview: Visiting Old Friends
By: chris |Sampdoria v Roma
Big game? Might be. We’ll have to keep one eye here, one eye elsewhere. But aside from the actual result, I’m frothing at the mouth to watch Vincenzo and Antonio back together again and playing against Roma. It’ll be mighty weird, but I’m sure on a few occasions I’ll be imagining them in […]
Let’s Talk About Relegation
By: chris |Not Roma’s, stop crying. I’m talking about the potential clubs going down. I always find it nice to start circling in the waters, searching for blood at the expense of others’ misfortunes. Last summer our fair Giallorossi made a big splash in the wake of Messina’s relegation by taking back Edgar “Burritos” Alvarez from loan […]
