Eastbay:
So poorly that Real Madrid were willing to make him the World's costliest footballer in 2001.
Besides,Ronaldinho was worse at PSG.
Zizou rules by a stretch and a mile.

ESPN Sportscenter told me not too long ago that Derrick Rose has a sprained wrist and is missing tonight's game against the Heat. Bawo is that true? So how many games would you have lost in a row after tonight's game grin grin

@Dayokanu
This has nothing to do with conspiracy theories! Hayatou just like George Bush does not give a phock about anybody. The Award itself is a sham sha starting from when they gave Kanoute rather than Drogba in 08 but two wrongs don't make a right what this means is they may have to give Eto'o the award next year even if Ghana or Ivory Coast win the World Cup

@Debosky
That would be a miracle judging from the fact that he played on Tuesday maybe that extra day made the difference. I'd prefer Sagna at the back obviously but only if he's a 100% and if Sagna is fit Eboue can stay forward rather than Eduardo talking about Eduardo whats your position on the fella? He's been piss poor this season and he is playing with zero-confidence or swagger at the moment one would have expected him to step up after RVP's injury but he has showed little ambition in doing that and Bendtner has zoomed past him in the pecking order! I only wonder how he would fare when we go to St Andrews he needs to get that injury outta his system i am sure most of us thought he had done that with his F.A cup cameos last season
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Drogba named African Player of the Year 2009 by A40(m): 4:48pm On Mar 12, 2010
Egunje spoil Africa! Oh well this is not the first time we are seeing ojoro canceling ojoro. No be today chest dey front and ikebe dey back its No biggie. So essentially by the 2010 awards the award would go to Eto'o even if Chelsea win the treble (Impossicant) just because Eto'o got robbed in 2009. I laugh in Kunta Kinte
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only (In Arsenal We Trust) by A40(m): 4:30pm On Mar 12, 2010
Porto got absolutely bambataad. It was too easy overall a flawless performance from the fellas what do i say about Bendtner? Maybe he would have been on double digits if not for Burnley he's the best option for now so i guess we are stuck with him

@Debosky
I doubt Campbell would be able to play in back to back games so we are most likely stuck with Le Geriatric pairing TV5.
Cadaver Da Silva should stay on the bench this tie is not for the frail-hearted the guy looks like Yaradua on the pitch if Sagna is ok let either of Eboue, Theo Dangerous or Rozzi complete the Bendtner, Arshavin Tribeca i personally would like to see how Theo fares in an away game without the home crowd cheering him on as its another means of evaluating his development
Diaby might need to help Denilson tighten that middle the dude has been neither here nor there.
All in all its a game that may be tight or end up way easier than expected if we score early and grab the decisive 2nd goal although scoring early has been a problem for most parts of the season


Is Djorou even going to feature this season since we don't know how Gallas would be gone for

@Bawo
Sharrap! Wetin una don do with your own high draft picks? If you where in the West would you smell the playoffs? By the way how many games have the Chicago Bullshi.t lost in a row now? I have difficulty counting beyond 5. Hehehe

@Na2day
Those Nets no dey fear sha it woulda been a disgrace had Los Mavs lost to them. It seems Haywood & Dampier are back which means frontcourt problem solved! Next three games are the Bricks, Chicago Bullsh¡t and the Celtics all three games @ the AA we should stretch it to 16 if we don't snooze

@Jesoul
Lolz you guys might be dragging for 4th with the Hawks and thats not a good look but what was your front office thinking? Cavs are trading for Jamison and y'all are acquiring Finley you guys could use a younger frontcourt but what am i saying my team has old players too lets just see how it goes when the playoffs come
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Liverpool F.C Fans Zone - the Mighty Reds ! by A40(m): 4:09am On Mar 09, 2010
Alonso was there when y'all finished 30pts behind the league winners i think Gerrard's loss of form has hurt plus lack of a decent replacement for injury prone Torres. Kuyt is decent but too average to consistently make a difference plus the Aquilani matter why splurge 20mil on an eternally injured player when there are players like Sneijder,Gourcuff,Van der Vaart e.t.c that you would have gotten for cheaper. Maxi is crap and Riera more crap. Alonso's departure would not have been a biggie if Rafa bought wisely
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only (In Arsenal We Trust) by A40(m): 3:51am On Mar 09, 2010
As far as Saturday's game i don't see what Bendtner was smiling about! I counted the chances he missed in that game they where 8!! Each miss more unpardonable than the other. If Theo did not seize the initiative who knows what could have happened? I don't blame him for smiling sha he probably knows that since RVP is out his only competition is Eduardo 'cadaver' Da Silva i wonder how the bench cope with his stench no be im go first injure, RVP comes into each season knowing he would be out at some point for at least 4 months but is not as tepid as Eduardo i just can't stand the guy coming on the pitch looking like an an.al r.a.pe victim all the time! He needs to man up and put some bass in his voice this self-pity,timidity,docility won't help us. Like i said earlier we can't afford to be as wasteful against Porto as we where against Burnley i'm in ma early twenties and i'm not willing to go over the Arsenal - Roma drama of last season again

@Doyin13
Stop busting nuts like a teen on his first visit to a gentleman's club. I know its easy for you to get dazzled by the fancy footwork i was too but look at the big picture cos Ronaldinho was neither here nor there pre 04 and post 06 is neither here nor there. Shebi u dey watch basketball who is the better Power Forward Tim Duncan or Kevin Garnett?
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Liverpool F.C Fans Zone - the Mighty Reds ! by A40(m): 2:33am On Mar 09, 2010
Enough of this Alonso cry already y'all are not the only ones that lost a big player last season and since he joined in 04 that was probably the only season he performed remember Benitez would have swapped him for Barry in a New York minute if Villa had agreed on guap terms i think y'all are over-rating the guy, The problem is Benitez himself i like him as a manager but his transfer dealings have just been shocking. Who wastes 57milla on just three players in two seasons with nothing to show for it? Keane,Johnson,Aquilani have been over-priced signings and when you consider that they have no striker of note aside Torres you have to wonder if Rafa swallowed an okele of a madman's plate of eba. I also think he is too tactically rigid and you basically can't place a pattern to Liverpool's game this season! Its been helter-skelter from start to finish
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Is Zidane Overrated? Is He Better Than Ronaldinho? by A40(m): 2:01am On Mar 09, 2010
@Jalether
How do you over-rate a player who has scored in almost every big game in his career? How many players have decided WC & UCL Finals?? You saw the examples Dayokanu listed didn't you? Is it mere coincidence or a pointer to his greatness. Football is not about doing a million step overs or snakebites per minute this is not Futsal all in all we have different fit criteria for rating footballers & sportsmen in general but Longevity matters to me more than anything else i

@Bawo
You guys should try and get a low-post scorer if i where you i would be hoping for Bosh and not Wade cos i don't see how two ball hogs can co-exist properly unless you are hoping on Joking Noah lemme know so that i can LeLol @ u

@Na2day
I am actually more worried about the T.Wolves i am totally positive the Nets and Bricks would be slaughtered

@Chiogo
Ha so you even know what they call him. Lets see how the playoffs go this year's should Sizzle

@H202
Better don't take any team for granted this season. You guys where way way stronger last season. I saw y'all crush competition from start to finish! I think the Artest-Ariza trade was a bad move the difference between their abilities on defense is negligible i personally think his defence is over-rated plus he is 5 years older than Ariza and an unpredictable character on and off the court never mind his shaky selection all in all y'all are still favorites and your problem is actually offensively and not defensively
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Is Zidane Overrated? Is He Better Than Ronaldinho? by A40(m): 12:40am On Mar 09, 2010
Good grief Zidane over-rated?? I laugh in Ajigijaga. . . Mr Big game Performer, Mr Clutch, Mr who i'd want on my team when the game is on the line? Jeez just look at how he destroyed England in Euro 04 with such calm non-chalantness i wont even bother listing other exhibits its not his fault that he saves his best for big games. Ronaldinho is good but even at his peak he was never the main man for Brazil. He ruled Europe for 3 seasons or thereabout and made it count but thats about it! I am not oblivious of his skill but Zidane to Ronaldinho is like a Professor to a Doctor. Zidane is an O.G mehn

@Chiogo
They have played 3 times and the Bobcats beat them twice this season that must count for something. As for Sister Paulina its all jokes now i dont flip when Bawo calls Dirk Dirt or H202 calls him Monica Lewinski


@Bawo
Ol boy Haywood has been protecting our paint oh if he played Saturday i doubt y'all would have smelled 100pts it used to be an Autobahn before he arrived if only we could get Gooden back besides he was the best we could get from the Wizards as there was no way they would give us Blatche heck they even waived Ilgauskas for him. We have been playing better in the 2nd half of games and we are 11-1 since the all star break also remember we where 4th now we are only 3 games behind L.A surely commitment

As for D.Rose, his numbers tell me your roster is rubbish. You know your team is whack when your PG is the leading scorer! New Jersey Nets, New Orleans Hornets e.t.c What that means is instead of making other players better and helping em find rhythm you are busy doing all the scoring yourself! you guys should go and get a consistent perimeter scorer or a low post banger and stop relying on Luol Dung cos you wouldn't get far. As for the PG Battle between Kidd and Rose on Saturday Kidd won and i would tell you why: Kidd's 15 assists tell me he was involved in at least 30pts excluding his personal baskets he also rebounded better so overall he schooled your sophomore boy

@H202
Na only 3 games seperate us now. E ma naagere oh and te ba naagere ko wo egbe eh

@Na2day
The next 3 games na setup. T.Wolves, New York Bricks oops i meant Knicks who shot 0 for 18 from 3pt range recently and then the Nets two of those games @ the AA surely that streak has to get to 14

chiogo:
Ah ah, I don't watch either team when they're not playing with the Celtics but I hear they suck, mostly. Just tryna compare. Under-aged smoking? Were you of age when you started spliffing it up?  tongue
Beating the Lakers doesn't make 'em good nau. The Nets also beat the Celtics. It be'z like that sometimes for great teams but it's the end result that matters. Winning one pointless game won't take 'em to the playoffs.  grin

Ok, so I guess I know who's better now. Michael who? They just like these senior citizens, I dunno why.  embarassed
Ya Mavericks seem to be on a roll.
Hehehe don't emulate me Ma'am i am not a role model  cheesy

The Bobcats don't suck they are actually an excellent defensive team they just suck on offense whereas the Nets just SUCK. The Bobcats beat the Lakers and are only team with a winning record against the Cavs if i where you i would be praying they meet in the playoffs and take them to a 7 game series or even do them strong thing like Golden State did to us in 07. Playoff basketball is all about matchups

Michael Finley used to be a baller ooh! Like in the 18th century lol he's an ex-Mav though and was what Dirk is to us now back in them days when i was not yet a Mav fan i saw a bit of him before he left for the Spurs after the 05 season. He plays Small Forward so he should be backup for Sister Paulina and Marquis Daniels

H2O2:
A-40 why are your Mavs suddenly posessed?
I knew the trade would do wonders, but not this kind of wonders.
We had too many dead-weights last season and for some parts of this season. A large roster but too many unproductive muthaphuckas!! back then we had only three players averaging double-digits obviously Mark Cuban did his homework and changed that now we have a more commited bunch those guys from the Wizards where tired of losing and had $hit to prove

H2O2:
We'll see how that works out for you guys in the playoffs against the denver nuggets.
should be an exceptional series. the playoff picture is fluctuating at the moment so I'm not sure how the match-ups will be yet.

All I wanna see are the Jazz and Spurs in the first and second rounds;however, i wonder what the likelihood of that happening will be.
I am not scared of the Nuggets we have a bunch of thugs in our team now as well. All we need is homecourt cos that Mile High weather has its special way of weakening our players i noticed that in the series with them last season we always seemed to wilt in the 4th quarter

Your man Lebron wants to switch from 23 to 6, earlier he did make us believe it was a move to honor M.J but now we know better the sharp guy simply wants to follow Kobe's blueprint and try to outdo him in jersey sales

We are not in the Golden Era anymore mehn and this is the pattern everywhere. There is a recession going down and these artistes are trying to survive to be honest sha a lot of em are in it for the wrong reasons so expecting them to drop some thought-provoking ish is expecting too much. There is just so much ish that has changed that expecting things to go back to their previous status quo is a pipedream. The average artiste now cannot even beat a drum and who needs that when we have machines

One more thing though are these so-called African American's or Jamaican's Africans as well?? Peter Tosh tells me that no matter where you come from as long as you are a black man you are an African so can we logically say these guys are copying??
