Inter +1: Making Calciopoli Look Like Amateur Hour Since 2007.
By: chris |Inter +1 v Roma
There’s really no point in writing anything here because Serie A still strives for wrestling’s levels of legitimacy. Adriano handball to win in the Milan derby? Oh sure.

By: chris |Roma 1 – Siena 0

VotD: Atalanta Lowlights
By: chris |If they’re not going to bother showing up for the game, I’m not going to bother showing up for the review.
Actually, that’s about as comprehensive as the recap needs to be, so nevermind. (End review.)
* – Last thing: I believe this to be positive. If they were going to drop points, a nice big “wake [...]
