Throttling Catania, Ludovicious & The King

By: chris | Comments 738 Comments

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

By: chris | Comments 218 Comments

Roma Through. Hooray.
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 […]

Gimme A Purple People Eater
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 […]

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 […]

Cliffs Notes Preview: Visiting Old Friends

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 | Comments 267 Comments

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 […]

Monday Matinee Midgetized Musings (On Wednesday, Because I Can)

By: chris | Comments 234 Comments

Alright, it’s a little later than “matinee” - actually it’s Wednesday now - but life happens. A lot lately. Oh that dastardly life.

Roma 4 - Torino 1
I’d like to send a big vaffanculo to the good people who decided this game was unworthy of a stream. Listening to Zampa was a nice touch, though. Nothing […]
