Roma will be looking for revenge

Filed under: Soccer

The UEFA Champions League returns to action today. ESPN will be broadcasting four matches. The highlight should be Manchester United v. Roma (1:30 CST, ESPN2), with Francesco Totti and the Italians seeking revenge for last season's humiliating 7-1 quarterfinal shellacking. Also on today's schedule is Stuttgart v. Barcelona (4, ESPN Classic). Tomorrow it's Liverpool v. Marseille (1:30, ESPN2) and Lazio v. Real Madrid (4, ESPN Classic).

This painfully attention-seeking column about sports-that-nobody-in-America-cares-about-but-me-and-my-pretentious-non-conformist friends is bad enough without having to read a reference to "Roma." It's Rome, Demko.

The club is called "AS Roma", and soccer is the world's most watched and played sport.

Just not in your red-neck of the woods.

And your post was a painfully attention-seeking troll.

(oh, also...the Vikings suck, the Metrodome sucks, and the NFL is a dumbed down version of the WWF.)

I love it: the culture war comes to the sports blogging world. Thanks to both of you for two of the dumbest posts that I have ever read. You both have committed the literary equivalent of shitting on yourselves. Congratulations for coming off as complete assholes, both sides.

So, how about that Niklas Backstrom, eh?
