Don't be surprised Del Potro could just pull off a fast 1 on Fed. . . . . . yeah, i know its quite a long shot given Fed's record against the other s/finalists - 26 wins to 1 loss; but when a story's g'onna have a fairy-tale ending, you see some li'l twists and turns along the way!

shocked cheesy Gonzo? I think he's done just enough to get to the SFs.
Of the lot, Gonzalez is the only one who has beaten Fedex before and also the only other player to have contested a Grand Slam final, so i think he's got a bit of experience on his side.

G'onna be a tough challenge against Soderlin but i see him overcoming that obstacle!

Interestingly the Chelski rebuttal doesn't say we are not interested in Kaka - I think the deal might be even done without the chairman knowing - owner to owner between Silvio and Roman.

Ruudie,

Which of those coaches won the treble, Was Ferguson knighted when he won the treble after multiple attempts?

or was Man Utd a small club too?
From my earlier post, you can see that I avoided mentioning some of the more popular "big name" managers because of the tendency of the arguments swinging this route. . . . .

If Pep had guided an Espanyol or some other catalan side with a lot less quality resource than what is presently at his disposal to any major title, he'd be a god.

We can never judge a manager from the first few outings - especially one who has such vastly talented & experienced team such as Barca.

Take the Klinsmann for instance, his early days at the helm of the German team were glory days. . . . . but what's happened at Bayern huh

Fine, we give Pep his due credit but lets not "overblow" the trumpet yet - tests still lay ahead and in a season or two, we'll be able to tell how good he really is!

Manchester United announce £80 million sponsorship deal with Aon

Manchester United have confirmed the most lucrative shirt sponsorship deal in football history after agreeing a four-year deal with Aon Corp, the American financial giant, thought to be worth £80million.

David Gill, the United chief executive, said: "We are delighted to be entering such an important relationship with a company of the stature of Aon and to have its logo adorn our shirts from the start of the 2010-11 season."

The club's current sponsor AIG, the American insurance firm, said in January that it would not be renewing its £14m-per-year contract after it suffered massive losses during the global economic downturn.

However, United were confident of securing an improved deal when their AIG contract ends in May 2010 and The Wall Street Journal claim that the deal with Aon is worth £20m per year.
AIG will continue to have its name on the club's shirts next season, before the Chicago-based financial services company take over the sponsorship in June 2010.

A number of companies had been linked with the United shirt deal, including electronics giants Samsung and Saudi Telecom and Indian firms Sahara and Tata.

Typical German mentality. . . . . . . you have to be big, tall, strong and good in the air before anybody gives you a look in as a striker.

Gomez, Klose, Luca Toni. . . . . . whats the difference huh They are only good when the ball's in the air.

Bayern should get some ball players man - guys who can play with the ball on the floor!

SportsRe: The Best Striker In The World by RuuDie(m): 11:55am On Jun 02, 2009
What type of player were you as a kid?
A gifted player technically who was not afraid of anything. I always tried the impossible with the ball.

Is that no longer the case?
I only dribble when it’s necessary now. I’ve managed to get rid of the extra stuff, which is not easy for an African who adores everything that is beautiful about the game. On the other hand, when I play for the national team, I have a tendency to go back to my roots. The national team manager uses me in a different way to Barça, where I am at the point of the team. At Cameroon I play behind the main striker or beside him and I become Cameroonian again. Dribbling, trying a nutmeg and making passes.

Are you ever tempted to play that way in Barcelona?
No. It’s very simple at Barcelona. I don’t have a desire to organise a game like Xavi or Deco, or to dribble like Ronaldinho, who is a genius. My strength is to keep my position. I always try to play for the team, whichever team it is. I am disciplined and I get upset when the others aren’t.
If you're one of those who think he doesn't have skill or dribbling abilities. . . . .  this 1's 4 u!
SportsRe: The Best Striker In The World by RuuDie(m): 11:47am On Jun 02, 2009
Bottomline. . . . . . . make a superman of Villa all you want, but there's no way in the world he betters Eto'o fils as a goal getter!
SportsRe: The Best Striker In The World by RuuDie(m): 11:46am On Jun 02, 2009
My job is to score goals. Every time I feel I have a chance, I try it. If not, I pass. But the priority is to score. When I attack, I only have goal in my head. My universe is the goal with a goalkeeper in it. That and the box.

You’re at home in the box?
Yes. I know that place. I don’t panic there. I’m cold blooded. It is fundamental to be able to shove out of your mind the thousands of things that can pollute your spirit in that moment.

Do you have a technique?
I look at the goalkeeper. He might make a small mistake. When I get the ball I think ‘goal’. I already know that I am going to control it. Everything is about the goal. I position myself so that I score. And when I don’t have the ball I run after it.

Not many people know that when you were younger, you played as a midfielder or as number ‘10’, but not as a ‘9’.
The great forwards have never had my education. I know what it is to defend because I played several positions which demanded sacrifice for the team. I try never just to be the guy who scores goals. I want to fight up front, in the middle or at the back. He who fights for every ball is he who doesn’t have a number on his back.

Thats an excerpt from an Eto'o interview - if you have a strike that's not "selfish", put him in the center of midfield!
RomanceRe: Top 10 Ways To Keep Your Long-distance Relationship Alive72 by RuuDie(m): 3:12pm On Jun 01, 2009
7. Get out and live life. Don't just sit in your room being sad and depressed that your loved one isn't there, get out and get involved. There are so many things that college is good for. Go do them. If you really love volunteering, go do it. If you want to learn how to surf, get on those waves and surf. Don't let sadness keep you from having fun.

8. Distract yourself. Along the same lines as number 7, get out. But not just to have fun. Do it to keep yourself occupied. The more you do, the less time you have to be sad and think about your significant other. Don't be afraid to keep busy. I promise you won't forget about your beau.

9. Don't be afraid to take breaks. A break can do you good. If you feel like some mental space is needed, take it. This is scary for most because they fear it means the death of their relationship, but it is sometimes the best thing a couple can do. Sometimes all you need to say is let's take a break. You may get back together the next day. A lot of times the other is thinking it, but just afraid to say it too.
Now. . . . . know some folks that need this kind'a schooling!

PoliticsRe: The Real Warri (with Pictures) by RuuDie(m): 12:54pm On Jun 01, 2009
Well. . . . . the poster has good intentions for sure!

Warri isn't that bad - not as good as the pictures but certainly not as bad as the stories we hear. Most of the fighting is in the swamps and creeks - yep, some onshore kidnapping and criminal activity but the bulk of it is out in the riverine areas.

The oil producing companies have helped a great deal in sanitizing the city; they've actually assisted in putting some sanity into some of the wildest criminals in the city - just pay a visit to any of the oil facilities of the shores of Warri and you'll have an idea what i mean.

Warri does have its bad spots; but not as bad as people make it out to be!
BusinessRe: Warri Refinery To Shut Down by RuuDie(m): 12:43pm On Jun 01, 2009
Refineries well at least, that at Warri were working albeit, below the maximum capacities but certainly functional enough to be of value.

Yeah it is true that pipelines were indeed vandalized; a lot of facilities around those regions are now flaring products at a very high rate cuz the pipelines cannot be used. . . . . . . . last time this happened around the neighbourhood of the world's 3rd largest ongoing project facility, it took 2yrs to get rectified.
