lol tis is cool. i jus took this quiz and reallyreallyreallyREALLY gave my honest replies:

Which Sesame Street Character Are You?

You are Oscar the Grouch. You can be gruff and often have a chip on your shoulder. Despite your intelligence, manners (and cleanliness) are of little importance to you. At the same time, you have a few very close friends who you allow to see a softer, kinder side of you.

LOL OSCAR ^^

EPL
Wednesday, September 03, 2008

hmm this is actually getting quite ridiculous. alright rich clubs have always dominated the league. but this is actually getting abit out of hand. now random rich dudes/coporations are taking over clubs in EPL, especially. so basically, random clubs like Man City start getting richer and richer, thanks to oil money or whatever the new owners make their moolah from. ok i suppose if they bring in cool players it could make the football nicer to watch. and i suppose this ushers in a new age in football. money talks, eh?

man city could actually hijack chelsea in their bid to sign robinho, and make bids to big clubs all over the continent for their star players. i mean, its turning more into a money league than a football league =/ i suppose breaking the "monopoly" of the big four could be a good thing, now instead of manyoo, assnal, chelski and the liverbirds, we could see man city possibly displacing one of these clubs.

and IF we ever do see more rich dudes taking over clubs in epl, what then, drives the desires of the players? passion for the game or passion for the riches the game brings? will the incentives make players forget things like respect, sportsmanship and the like? and ANYWAY, attracting the best talents may not exactly make you the biggest club. just look at real madrid and their age of the galaticos (zidane, figo, r. carlos, ronaldo, beckham, owen). no really, man city may not be going in the right direction, even if they do have the right money. the price of players will defo be inflated with the entry of rich owners like these, a situation that only serves to blur the value of the game to the fans, players, clubs and the like. =/

oh and anyway, a quote from one of my idols: "He can play on the left or the right, in a 4-4-2 or 4-3-3...or on the bench" - Mourinho, talking about his new acquisition quaresma. LOL
