Cool Malto! Wonder tough, being in US, why was your uncle was so passionate about soccer?

He immigrated here from Malta and soccer was the sport they all played.

I have an Uncle that had enough talent to play professionally in the European leagues and had the honor of playing a match with Queen Elizabeth in attendance. (This was prior to Malta's independence and was still a British subject)

Thought that could be something like that, European influences in some way.

Early days, but damn would I love to see Saints crash the Champions League party. Doubly so seeing what they went through this offseason with the mass exodus.

Agreed. And considering they were a League One side three seasons ago, it'd be some achievement. Big Ron K is doing a splendid job and long may it continue. Anything to see Mourinho fail is good.

Jeff Gordon kicked someone's ass today.....

another sign the end is near.

I didn't see it but reading the stories it sounds like Harvick pushed Keslowski towards Gordon and Jeff hit him in the lip.

maybe even closer to the truth..............

I'm not sure Keslowski will make to the end of the tear, he's overtaken Shrub for least popular driver.

[DanO]

Least popular driver is an understatement. He's going to have a hard time finishing races much less winning them.
