  1. Ives…. I’m pretty sure the Italian SuperCup to be played between Inter and Roma is this weekend, and if it is this weekend,you failed to mention it.

    I’m not trying to point out your flaws, haha, just a huge Roma fan. I want to see Baptista’s debut, see if he’s got it good, or does what he did at Arsenal, which is suck.

  2. 10PM Eastern: USL2 final, Cleveland-Charlotte (FSC)

    No one has won anything in Cleveland since the Force 20+ years ago. Growing up in Cleveland I’ll take any title I can get.

  3. Actually the game is over now. Udinese won 1-0 over Villareal. Altidore came in for Rossi in the 67th minute. It was all tied till the 72 minute, Udinese scored right after Cabi was sent off w a str8 red in the 71 minute.

  5. Was up guys, check out http://www.villarrealcf.es/…. there is a video interview with Jozy Altidore, he is the 3rd interview, first interview is with Rossi. The site also mentions he’s on tonight’s roster against Odinese of the Italian league. From what i get reading the site and watching the show, they r big on Jozy. They think he can make a impact right away.

  6. The first leg of the Spanish Super Cup between Valencia and RM last week was an excellent game. I’m certainly going to watch the second leg.
