Sagres is the only Portuguese beer I know by name. Cheap beer, isn\'t it?
maybe gencs can let you borrow his "don\'t bother me, I\'m local" or whatever it says shirt joc. It should only be about 4 sizes too big for you. And in the wrong language. Perfect.

CHELSEA....CHELSEA....CHELSEA....CHELSEA!!!
The BLUES are taking the EPL this year, believe DAT!
Didier Drogba, Frank Lampard, Mikel, Cech, do I need to go on?
1994 FIFA World Cup
Baggio was the cornerstone of the Italy team during the 1994 FIFA World Cup, leading them to the final after a disappointing start. He scored five goals, all in the knockout phase, and he started every match from the beginning: two in the round of 16 to beat Nigeria (scoring with 2 minutes left of the game sending it into extra time, and then another goal in extra time), one in the quarter-finals to top Spain (the game winner with 3 minutes remaining) and two to beat Bulgaria in the semi-finals. Baggio was not fully fit for the final against Brazil, which ended 0-0 after extra time; he took Italy\'s last penalty in the resulting shoot-out, but his kick went over the cross-bar and the Brazilians won the title. Two other Italians, Franco Baresi and Daniele Massaro, had already missed penalties; had Baggio scored, Brazil would have still had a penalty to win the Cup nevertheless. Baggio has since been blamed for costing Italy that World Cup despite the fact that he singlehandedly carried a weak and aging Italian team to the final.
Baggio finished tied for second in the tournament in goals scored and was named one of the top three players.
Bautistutaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!! Gooooooooooaaaaaaaaal!!!

Not a chance.
Arsenal or Utd. No doubt. Chelsea 3rd or 4th.

exactly. I remember watching this Italian restaurant owner (actually a close family friend) cry his eyes out after that missed PK. I was 10 and on the verge of tears just watching him. 2006 = redemption for good ol\' Nick Lombardi.
Im a Tottenham fan. No way spurs wiil finish for europe this year, but they wont be relegated either. Chelsea dont have a shot either unless they use their cash in the january transfer window. Drogba is hurt and they have too many key african players leaving for the african cup of nations in january. It\'s a three horse race and they all wear red. Unfortunate but true. Oh and the bolton fan, say goodbye to anelka come january
