Venerdi Vitriol ! (and some Mercato musings)
By: Marco |The Roman Derby was Lazio’s most important game of the season. Francesco Totti even laid flowers in front of the Curva Nord, purely because he’s classy. Add to that the fact that Lazio’s European ambitions ended a long time ago and the death of Gabriele Sandri and you have all the ingredients necessary for a […]
An Assortment of Hodgepodge
By: chris |15 Questions
Reader Tick Tick Tick (given name, I presume) handed out this little questionnaire earlier in the week and I thought it was fantastic. So I figured I’d answer it, and if you haven’t, I suggest you do the same. (YouTubers where applicable.)
1.) All time world cup moment?
Fabio Grosso. World Cup Semi-finals. Dortmund. 119th minute. […]
Weekend Interruptions & Bull@#$% Rumors
By: chris |I wanted to take this Azzurri weekend to take some time off from the boys in yellow and red, but the mass media and info leakers of the world had other ideas. So here I am, tackling this bullshit rumors, inane news bits and FIGC gavel bangings which have so unexpectedly been bestowed upon us […]

By: chris |Ilary Blows Francesco’s Whistle
She of great WAGdom fame (also, the original offside WOTW - what an honor) has let us in on the future plans of her hubby, Il Capitano, and the Roman faithful should listen, because she gives us a little hint as to how long he plans on gracing us with his presence:

Chivu: Roma A “Small Obstacle” To His Love For Inter
By: chris |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.
Italia-France: A Running Diary of Mediocrity
By: chris |Italy 0 - France 0…Everybody 0:
So here we are, the great rematch of the final in Berlin, the one that actually counts because (most of) the big boys are back. Italia is without Luca @#$%ing Toni and Marco Materazzi, la Frenchies’ old nemesis, while France is at pretty much full-strength, minus The Chosen One, who […]
A Gift For The Chivu Haters….
By: chris |I came along this little masterpiece while searching for something completely unrelated to Mrs. Chivu, but it’s so breathtaking in all its splendor I figured it deserves its own canvas, or post.
Enjoy your trophies….jackass.
A Potpourri of Useless Flapdoodle
By: chris |See-see-nyoooooooo:
Hey Sevilla, over that way…to the left.
I’m sure you’ve seen the quote from Cicinho how he’d be happy to join Sevilla about 48 hours after saying it was “Roma and only Roma.” Honestly, this sounds a lot like his agent speaking. In fact, it screams it. Limiting your options limits your leverage, etc etc etc. […]

Cicinho: James Franco (I’m sure there are better options, I was stumped)
Maria: Lohan (duh)
Rosa: Keira Knightley
Mr. Bronzettiballs: Fred Willard
Mr. Mijatovic: […]
