I'm pretty sure Kun Aguero's transfer fee is going up 1 million dollars for every goal he scores this season.
ReplyDeleteif the maradona/inter crap is true then i would imagine thats where he will end up, as maradona controls the ass kun gets.
ReplyDeletei think it would be awesome for the game if cluj or the cypriot team got into the knockouts. a boy can dream.
I think I'd be okay with Maradonna controlling the ass I got, as long as it was only the quality and not the volume.
ReplyDeletePhils up 2-0. If anyone cares...

Does Soccernet read the future? I just went to their CL tables (http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/tables?league=uefa.champions&cc=5901) and they have all of todays games as finals, as everyone in groups A-D have 2 games played. Am I experiencing lost time or something?
