Roma - Arsenal, penalties. I'll root for the Gunners since they got the only Dane, even if he's got pink shoes.

And I tainted them. :( What a horrendous kick from the Arsenal player.

We still went through. Four English clubs in the quarter finals! Eat it, Blatter.

Great win for Liverpool last night.

Should be some interesting games in the quarters.
When's the draw for it?

March 20. Now we just need Porto and Bayern out and it'll be a good tournament.

What's this fascination with giving the team a second name? Austin would do fine unless you have two teams.

Austin FC would have been fine.  There is an American tradition of each sports club having a nickname or a mascot that they are trying to cater to here.

All the English football clubs have nicknames too, but they are just that, nicknames.......not part of their official terminology. A nickname should develop organically, as a consequence of events. So, the name should be Austin FC, as time goes by they may get a nickname.....

That's cool. However, Austin teams suck. When I played youth soccer we always had a good time beating them into dust.

Yes we sorta do at most sports.  It is a rare moment a team of Austin kids wins a State championship.

However I think there is like one actual Austinite on the roster, AJ Godbolt who played on Maryland's national champs a few years back.  The rest are a mix of Americans and English players our English owner recruited.  Oh and one Mexican guy.

I wasn't too impressed by Arsenal, that game could've easily gone to Roma.  I think Man Utd., Liverpool or Barcelona is gonna take the trophy this year.

Denilson is a liability. We need Fabregas back immediately. Him feeding Eduardo balls through defence... oh god.
