FYI, I'm going to try to get Galaxy Cinema to play the final on the big screen in HD. Admission would be free. Would that be something people would be interested in?

4/25/2012 11:46:12 PM

La LOLiga?

so hypothetical, say if both teams agreed, the yellow suspensions are lifted...would both/either do it?

4/26/2012 12:07:25 AM

They'd both obviously agree to it. But it's not up to them.

4/26/2012 12:56:39 AM

4/26/2012 2:05:20 PM

i'm not sure if you are saying this b/c of your knowledge of both teams or to be a dick, but there could def be scenario's where one wouldnt agree, such as one team having more faith in their backups or feel the players they will be missing are less important, or feel the other team's missing players are very important and their backups suck...

Wenger -------> Director, Arsenal FC
Pep --------> Manager, Arsenal FC

That'd work.

I think they'll be fine. I don't think Pep was the one keeping their heads above water...

4/27/2012 9:43:10 AM

he has been Pep's # 2 for a while so the system will be the same. Plus like ^ said, the players are pretty damn good.

FYI, I talked Galaxy Cinema into hosting the UEFA CL Final. It's going to be free. Reminder that we serve beer too.

Should be a public event that you can join. Let me know if there's any issues with joining.

Go Bayern.

What's the TWW Arsenal Fan Club going to do tomorrow? Pull for Chelsea so Spurs don't get in?

5/18/2012 11:38:54 AM

I'm pulling for Bayern, but it wouldn't be a bad consolation prize to see Spurs denied the CL next season.

5/18/2012 11:41:23 AM

Pulling for Bayern. As much as I enjoyed seeing Chelsea pull it together and beat Barcelona, I'd rather not see them win the whole thing. John Terry is an asshat and Robben is Dutch, so that pretty much my take on the teams.

It's a tough call. I really just don't know. I don't think I can pull for Chelsea.

5/18/2012 11:54:56 AM

Even if I didn't hate the majority of Chelsea's players, I'd still probably go for Bayern. The financial nerd in me loves how they've made a profit 19 years in a row and I think supporter owned (majority anyways) clubs are an awesome concept. I don't understand why LFC fans didn't try to put together some sort of proposal to buy half the club or something when their value was rock bottom. Probably a long shot but that would have been the best time to try it.


it would be kind of funny for Spurs to miss out after their fans talked so much shit though, I have to admit.

5/18/2012 11:56:00 AM

Did we talk a lot of shit? I seem to remember us just enjoying the performances more than anything. Maybe a bit more to Arsenal but that's to be expected.

Unless you're referring to us talking shit about Liverpool. But you can't blame us for that because people were talking so much shit about Liverpool that it got old halfway through the season.

5/18/2012 6:03:17 PM

Finally, it's time

5/19/2012 12:57:44 PM

Robben and Ribery are gonna tear up the wings and give Chelsea fits all day. 2-1 for Bayern

5/19/2012 2:17:23 PM

Chelsea is concerned about Robben on the wing too, starting Bertrand on that wing to help Cole. This is an interesting time to experiment, Mr. Di Matteo.

5/19/2012 2:36:57 PM

lol @ nosepicking

5/19/2012 3:03:52 PM

Chelsea knows how to counter attack, that's for damn sure

5/19/2012 3:24:08 PM

If Bayern had a decent striker then they would be easily on top

5/19/2012 3:27:50 PM

This game has been a bit of a letdown so far.

5/19/2012 4:13:56 PM

most finals are

5/19/2012 4:21:18 PM

FUCK YES

lol at the "neutral" stadium announcer

5/19/2012 4:25:35 PM

Well after a million shots on goal and couple thousand corners one was going to go in.

5/19/2012 4:25:52 PM

time for a bit of robben's magic injuries to end the game

5/19/2012 4:27:50 PM

that was a pretty nice goal

those white players just werent athletic enough to stop it

5/19/2012 4:29:55 PM

WOW

5/19/2012 4:30:54 PM

I hate Chelsea but that's awesome

5/19/2012 4:31:39 PM

hey now!

5/19/2012 4:32:23 PM

Drogba is a beast. Even at his advancing age. Absolute monster.

I still don't think extra time favors Chelsea, but now that Drogba and Torres are out there they might have to play a little more forward.

5/19/2012 4:33:10 PM

drogba is so sweet, and i don't like hearing brad friedel talk.

5/19/2012 4:37:20 PM

It sounds brad friedel has a slight fake British accent going on.

5/19/2012 4:39:17 PM

yep he's been doing that for a while now, even as far back as 02 WC

5/19/2012 4:40:52 PM

it seems to have subsided even. I remember it being stronger.
