Four goals are always impressive no matter the competition. I will say that the two whoopings that Milan has handed out are against relegations teams, and it may or may not be all the necessary to beat up on teams that maybe don’t deserve it. But this Milan is a completely different squad […]

First things first, Portugal is easily the one of the better teams in Europe, and I do not like to look all that much into friendlies. But as an Azzuri fan you really have to like what you saw and as a Milan fan you have to like it even more, this was a […]
Saturday Morning Hangover, What Happened to Silvio

What happened to you Silvio. There was a time when you were the only guy I wanted as an owner of my sport’s teams. You went around splashing cash buying up guys like Weah, Boban, Desailly and Sheva, mixing them with homegrown talent to make some of the strongest teams in Euro. […]
Saturday Morning Hangover

I got to thinking yesterday as the Rossoneri and Il Capitano, Paolo Maldini, began their trek to Japan. Japan has been very, very unkind to the man you see above in all his glory. If we all stop and think for a moment, the last time Paolo was in Japan was a loss […]

The Ol’Lady was in town for what turned out to be a pretty solid game from two old rivals. I believe that as a Rossoneri fan it was a fair result, granted to team still does not have a home win this campaign but Juventus was and is still playing fairly well. All […]

I have just about made peace with this weekend’s catastrophe. After absorbing a ton of great articles here at the Offside and elsewhere I have begun to come to grips with a truly horrific situation that not only talks about the problems in Calcio, but also in Italy in general. Had it not […]
GUILTY

In the biggest case since OJ, Nelson Dida has been found guilty by UEFA for what is being called unsportsmanlike conduct. UEFA has handed down what I consider a lenient two game suspension to the keep that has since fallen out of favor at the club, except in the eyes of Uncle Fester, Galliani. […]

All is well in Azzuri land tonight as the WC Champs beat Shevchenko, I mean Ukraine 2-1. Sheva played out of his mind and I can not tell you how many times I wished he was still wearing the old red and black. The game was not without faults though, and first and foremost […]

I would like to take this opportunity to respond to Chris over at the Roma Blog, and also to defend The Don, former Milan man, and exact look alike of my father…SCARY.
First of all I want to look back at the WC and one Marcello Lippi. I have never denied Lippi’s talent as a […]

-A 2-2 draw to Dinamo Kiev yesterday saw pizza faced wonder boy Alex Pato score his first goal in the rossoneri while goaless Gila ended his drought of what seemed liked years. Milan’s makeshift lineup included Pato, Emerson, Aubemayeng, and even third keeper who has not played in eons Valerio Fiori. Ancelotti went […]
