DU WIRST NIEMALS ALLEINE MARSCHIEREN

Soulex posted:

Usually when I say that it has to deal with a terminology. For instance, Dench, Bike kick, two foot, etc. Slang changes from region to region. Fanny is a butt in America but it isn't that way in England. I thought it was one of those things. We two countries have a different way of saying somethings.

There isn't a need to overreact as I have asked plenty of questions here without the preface "sorry to be American but..."

And yeah, I'm new to football. It's the first sport I've actually really liked. So naturally I want to get as involved as I can. Regardless if it gets me labeled a plastic or not. I watch "my team" read the news, and make it a point to learn the rules. Hell, I even played before I was diagnosed with exercised induced compartment syndrome in my legs.

So please ease up. I could say a joke about how Americans are always loving rude, but I don't think it would go over with you. A lack of knowledge isn't ignorance. The refusal to learn is.

Don't worry. I love your enthusiasm and appreciate for The Beautiful Game. You're also a bit spazzy but seem like a good guy Soulex and also really like Fiorentina so please, post some pictures of them that you've gained over your travels the past year or so.

I have plenty of pictures of Florence but none at the Artemio Franchi. My wife and I visit there a few times a year, but she either schedules it in the summer, or during away games/international breaks. She forgot to ask every time and essentially told me when the plans were made and her family had taken that time off of work. That or we aren't in Florence long enough because we are on the way to Albania. She always felt bad, especially when they were going to play the day of us leaving. This is 2 years, and I've only really been involved in La Viola for part of that. The distance away is the hardest part.

To make up for that, she told me to schedule vacation this year. So I will be seeing Livorno, Atalanta and Inter at home. My brother in law works right outside the Duomo so he actually ends up seeing a lot of players and management. Batistuta actually came to his restaurant and got a picture with him a few months back.

The only real game I have seen that wasn't local german leagues was a German International game. Kinda wanting my first club game to be with La Viola. I mean I could always find tickets for nurnberg but come on....it's nurnberg. Plus I don't like that city.

Villarreal and NY Cosmos played a memorial match in honor of Marcos Senna.






Senna was the starting DM for Spain during Euro 08 and he was one of the best players in that tourney but then lost his spot when Busquets showed up, he was a classy dude imo.

There was another memorial match played, this time in honor of Fernando Caceres who played in Real Zaragoza and won the Cup Winners Cup against Arsenal in 1995, he was tragically shot in a robbery in Buenos Aires in 2009 and is now wheelchair bound.
