Should that Dubai ad piss me off? Because it certainly did. What a waste of a career.

What a waste of billions and billions of dollars...so, basically, I spend a fortune to go to this incredibly cool desert place for my vacation, and happen to "make a connection" on the beach, so to speak, and I face at least a year in jail? Yeah, this whole traditional Muslim/Western thing - two things that don't go well together...

Oh, and umlaut (and BD): There is ALWAYS hope!!!

Did we give up when the Germans' bombed Pearl Harbor?? Fuck.And.NO!!...

We are also a cited source for Sofiane Feghouli being called the next Zidane. One of these we did ourselves, the other we just find funny.

I just signed Feghouli on FM for my Arsenal squad. He scored 2 in his debut against Wigan. Because you care.

If I didn't think saying "adorable' would make me sound totally gay... Awww, those Arshavin pics are adorable.

Nice digs. Too bad you're cup tied.

I already have a very special place in my heart reserved for Andrey. Did you guys see the post on DirtyTackle showing how Arshavin is a special little guy?
