Arriba los rudos y el Atlante

Si habia una historia que me llamara la atencion en la finalisima de la inaugural Liga de Campeones de la CONCACAF era la de la Maquina del Cruz Azul. Los Cementeros tomaban el papel protagonico habiendo llegado a la final despues de perder dos finales de liga consecutivas.

Ahora buscaban acabar con su mala racha y de haber fracasado en su intento por llegar a la liguilla. Pero las cosas no fueron asi para el Cruz Azul que no supo y no pudo remontar los dos goles que havia recibido en casa.

El Atlante, los rudos, se afferaron a su ventaja para coronarse campeones en casa, con un empate a cero-goles, propinandole a la Maquina su tercera derota consecutiva en finales y ganandose un boleto al mundial de clubes.

Y los Potros que, los que se tuvieron que mudar a Quintana Roo por falta de hinchada en la ciudad de Mexico. Ahora van rumbo a Abu Dhabii buscando conquistar otros horizontes.

Mi Querido Magadan.

Cuando yo andaba muy lejos

muy tranquilo me paseaba

gastando mis buenos pesos

a mi nada me importaba

pero me llego una carta

que mi Joel agonizaba.

Never a qualified coach, but rather a stowaway.

Two-time national team assistant Paco Ramirez resigned from his post as acting Chivas head coach today.

Now all that is left is for Vergara to finish the game, and make it official.

Lightning struck not once but twice with this bozo.

A reminder of the FMF's shortcomings, and, ultimately, a lesson never learned.

Let us rid ourselves of the plague that is Ricardo Antonio Lavolpe and his many minions of death.

After the 5-0 shalacking Atlas received, yet one more playoff elimination in a long line of second chances gifted to El Otro, it's only fitting:

It is time these incumbent assholes show a semblance of dignity, and forever retreat from the national spotlight.

A Chingar a Su Madre

FMF supremo Justino Compean finally showed some back bone and told CONMEBOL to shine their Copa Libertadores trophy nice and slow, turn it sideways, and stick it straight up their candy asses.

“As president of the FMF, I would like to announce that Mexican football will withdraw completely from all CONMEBOL competition until we reach an agreement,” Compean said. “If we want to compete, it has to be as equals. ‘Fair play’ must prevail.”

I was looking forward to my beloved Chivas match against Sao Paolo but a few shady characters from COMEBOLAS kept looking to benefit from the swine-flu "pandemic" to gain leverage in the match.

I say this because even neutral venues like Miami and Los Angeles were refused. The South Americans instead have pressured to have both legs, or a one off match, played in their own homes.

In the mean time nothing has been said about the Dengue fever outbreak affecting Argentina; which has now spread into their capitol. I doubt, however, that Bosta Jrs will get the same treatment as the Mexican clubs.

Javier Saavedra

A loan goal from Javier Saavedra, in the 87th minute, allowed Indios of Ciudad Juarez to defeat Cruz Azul one-nil and assure the club avoid relegation. Indios salvation is perhaps Saavedras saving grace as the 35 year old midfielder, best known as "el Mala Suerte", holds the distinctive title of having reached 5 league finals and losing every single one of them.

Ronaldo - O Fenomeno

Ronaldo Luis Nazario de Lima, more commonly known as O’ fenomeno, never seems to get tired of winning. It matters not if he is overweight, skinny, on a bad knee, tore tendons, or partying with transvestites, he always finds a way to make a comeback and win. This past Sunday was no exception as Ronaldo helped his current club Corinthians win the state Championship.

The record winning Corinthians side not only extended their unbeaten streak at the Pacaembu stadium to 25 matches but their crowning achievement was also the first time in almost 40 years that the winner of the Paulista State Championship went unbeaten through the tournament. And with Ronaldo at their side one can expect much more from the “Timão”, O’ fenomeno after all has won 10 of the 13 finals he has played in!

“I can honestly tell you that I am the happiest man on earth", Ronaldo told reporters after the match. "It has been a long road to recovery and today's title makes everything that much more special. It feels great. The victory means a lot to me, I can’t stop, won’t stop, hit it, hit it".

Mas Macho
