ah, time for another post that only dana, nick and my brother may care about. (but i'm sprinkling in other junk to make the rest of you read too!)today's semifinal match up in the champions league. i'm getting to watch ac milan vs manchester united. i may even be able to watch tomorrow's match of chelsea vs liverpool. sorta crazy that 3 of the four remaining teams are from the premiership. it can really stake the claim as the top notch league of the world.
4:52, man u just scored a ridiculous goal on a set piece. and i don't mean ridiculous in a good sense. well, the corner was good, and christiano ronaldo had a nice header into the keepers neck/shoulder. then it just sorta flew into the air and dida tipped it into the net. kinda ugly. of course, gabriel heinze was there as well and probably would've put it home had dida not.
(btw, i'm surfing the net while watching the game. from sports gal's review of bachelor last night, "What qualifies for a connection these days? Sharing a drink over 10 minutes of awkward conversation as 12 other girls lurk in the background? This show continues to make women proud." that's just awesome. and, "When they arrived in Tahoe, the women shrieked with excitement when they saw their suite at Harrah's. It's a bed covered with cigarette burns! Woo hoo!" hey, i made a joke about how these tramps are so excited to enter a room.)
"and with blinking of an eye, ac milan have that priceless away goal!" kaka just buried an absolutely sick goal, low to the back post. disgusting.
and @ the 36th minute kaka doubles up with another sweet goal. three manchester defenders in the area, two collide, the other one didn't really have much of a chance, and he sends it past van der saar.
so, over on fresno famous, there's this lady that always puts up crazy posts like this one. i am constantly restraining myself from responding.
59th minute, rooney scores his for the third game in a row. came off of some good team work, chopped it in.
69th minute, scoles fouled about 20 yards out. free kick. giggs bends a sick ball around the wall...just wide.
it's been a tail of two halves. milan definately looked better in the first, manchester in the second. even the fouls matched up that way. 1st, milan got all the calls. 2nd, manchester.
christiano ronaldo just had such a sick play that resulted in a corner. 83rd minute. i literally dropped my jaw open on that. he worked it around several players, ripped a fierce shot towards the near corner that was just touched by dida. it still ended up in the outside netting. wonderful stuff.
just inside stoppage...giggs long run...feeds rooney...who drives it home! his second of the night. what a strike.
and man u has won every single home game during this champions league season.

Hey, I like soccer too.
And Marla, holy shit! Can you say crazy?
well, i know you like soccer, too, but i didn't know if you liked to read my writing about soccer. not that i know that those other people cared, but they've commented before.
thanks for reminding me. I'm going to try to record the game today. I have been listening to the games on satelite radio while I work, but thats not really very good.
I think I'm going to forward that nonsense to Becky's dad. wowee. That's some fun insane rambling.
Oh, and it's the easiest thing in the world to skip over your soccer narratives. I don't even see them anymore.
