Crushed

Well, that was bad. North Korea abandoned their defensive ideology and were thrashed like silly school boys. Had they played for a draw, the Portuguese floodgates may have been kept shut, and maybe Ronaldo and his pals would have surrendered to an English style manque. Then again, maybe not.
We can only imagine how the PRK might have fared in a weaker group. It was a treat to follow them through the qualifying to the Finals. Now they play for pride and the role of spoiler in the final game of the Group of Death. It may be another forty-four years before the Communist star of the PRK flies at the World Cup – or maybe North Korea will be retired to the museum by then.

Pippo Scores, Tiziano Crudeli Weeps
This is, incredibly, not too far off the norm for Tiziano Crudeli, journalist, commentator and Milan fan extraodinaire. He's a touch passionate about the Rossoneri and as one would expect, more than a touch passionate for icon Pippo Inzaghi's last game for the club on the weekend. Standard fare... And then ...

Enjoy Landycakes enjoying some First Bottom. In a room of armed men hell bent on protecting the object of his lurid fantasies at all costs. Or maybe they're there hunting down that dude straight out of the WWII flick on the left, looking like he's about to pillage something. (No comment.) And ...

Felipe Melo Finds His Fire Hydrant
For no apparent reason, the canine urination celebration is taking hold of Europe. Or it's happened twice off the top of my head, which is far too many and certainly deserving of pandemic status. The first was Zenit's Danny, merely celebrating a goal. Now Felipe Melo was so excited by ...
Joey Barton Being Joey Barton
