Tomorrow I will be leaving for the Mother Land of Italy in attempt to pay homage to the Rossoneri and also to attend the Uniti Dalla Maglia ceremony at the San Siro on 7/31. It is supposedly going to be a meet and greet and the taking of the official team picture. I [...]

Lets Talk Motta
By: Gianfranco | 3 Comments
I am on the fence on Thiago Motta. He is a player with tons of upside and only twenty four which is awesome. The other great thing about Motta is his position which will help relieve Pirlo or even better, move Pirlo further up into the attack. Picture this: a lone striker [...]

Thanks to Martha for sparing me from having to write countless useless words about Kaka’s brother Digao. All I can say is this smells like favoritism at work and if the kid cannot hack it he needs to be shown the door. I do not care whose brother, son, father, or college roommate [...]

If American Football is so big and bad, then why does its glorious Madden video game franchise get consistently outsold by measly Soccer’s Fifa Franchise…not to mention the most sought after fantasy sport online at the moment is again SOCCER…Be afraid Colin, Be very afraid.
I will not lay to rest until my emails and posts [...]

Pippo Inzaghi claims to have turned down RBNY of the MLS, even though they would have “covered him in gold” which are the words that the Champions League legend chose. I have to say that I am a little bit upset this, the Red Bulls are my favorite MLS team, remember they were once [...]

THE BEAST?

Julio “The Beast” Baptiste, who was originally outed right here on the theoffside.com by some faithful readers (maybe I have taken to much credit) as the Milan mystery man. But alas The Beast (which I can deal with as a nickname) has snubbed the Rossoneri, saying that he would like to prove himself at [...]

What exactly are insurmountable obstacles? That is question that only one Silvio Berlusconi may answer. This is his reason for giving up on bringing Sheva back to the San Siro and finally (YAY!!!) giving up on Ronaldinho. He has however said that someone will be joining the team soon, most likely a [...]

I would like to take this opportunity to expand a bit on some great comments from J and K on a past post. The guys brought up some great points about the defense being on the wrong side of thirty, but having the potential to be well cycled and rested throughout the season. [...]
Saturday Afternoon hangover, The Ronaldinho saga continues…
By: Gianfranco | 5 Comments
Berlusconi is ready to buyout “Dinho’s contract. I can not refrain my excitement. This transfer window has become the most abysmal, boring, and nonsense period in a long time. The yes/no tug of war for all the targets is useless and it is honestly making me upset. If they are going [...]
