I actually don't know anyone personally that is interested in soccer past the point of the kids at the YMCA. There must be some as it is on TV every once in awhile. Of course that is usually the spanish stations for the illegals here.

Funny thing kind of relating. I never was much on hockey. I found out after my daughter's first boyfriend passed that he was a huge hockey fan. Now I find myself watching hockey sometimes and wishing the kid was still around. He was a good kid and I sure would have taken him to some games and maybe learned more about the teams playing.

I played soccer from age 3-16.   I still play games with friends and one league.

should be.   Lets hope Mourinho doesn't kill it and they play like they mean it.   I always find first legs to be tactical battles. 

Will probably end up the most exciting tense 0-0 in the history of football  ;)

There was some footage of some team that won a trophy. As the celebration was going on the guy, a player, holding the trophy dropped it. He was on the upper open part of a dbl decker bus. The trophy tumbled to the ground and the very slow moving bus ran right over it and crushed it.

My only thought on that happening...... who's idea was it to let a soccer player hold the trophy. They never use their hands. :)

Pete Weber was probably saying the same thing.

That video was on CNN about a week back. Some championship. The player was some big name from the team. You know he had to feel really bad about what happened.

Ahh here is the guy that dropped it....

Real Madrid's Sergio Ramos lets a hard-won trophy fall. It then gets trapped under one of the wheels

Not only soccer players drop trophies.    Chris Chelios and a host of others have dented, dropped The Stanley Cup.

It being ran over by the bus was the funniest part.
