What, no comments on Barcelona beating RM?

I wonder how many stabbings there were as a result.

No stabbings that I know of, but plenty of hand wringing on TV about the refereeing, which is absolutely par for the course and terribly tedious.

When asked about the option of Mario Balotelli going to Chelsea, Balotelli's agent said that they (balotelli and mourinho) know each other and don't hate each other.

What this says about marios opinion of all his other managers I don't know...

So Zlatan and the rest of the players in the French league are striking for two games in November in protest against the millionaire tax.

I hear there's some excellent and newly constructed football fields near Groznyj...

I'm sweet on this Rebecca Lowe bird on NBC.

I'm sweet on this Rebecca Lowe bird on NBC. 

She's got Michelle Obama arms. 

[Admiral Yi]

I googled her.  She used to be a body builder.

[PDH]

I don't mind Michelle Obama arms.  They can open a beer for me.

[Ed Anger]

I miss Ian Darke.

I don't mind Michelle Obama arms.  They can open a beer for me.

Barf. I like my women thin, like my hair.

[PDH]

As I age and get more feeble I want women who can open a jar of pickles by themselves.  Of course, I wanted some of those pickles and they can damn well go to the kitchen to get me some while they're up.

[FunkMonk]

Well I like her. 

But yeah Ed's right. NBC needs to hire Ian Darke for commentary. Saturday morning breakfast isn't the same.

[Valmy]

Really?  This little blonde woman is too big and buff for Ed?

[Ed Anger]

Muscular arms mean they can fight back. Duh. 

[PDH]

Muscular arms mean they can fight back. Duh. 

Not if they are tired from opening jars of pickles.  Duh.
