Great Shirt from Who Are Ya Designs & Other Happenings



This spectacle is a new shirt from Who Are Ya Designs. It features Paul the Octopus from Germany, famous World Cup match predictor. I'd say if you're planning on going to Vegas any time soon, you should probably be wearing this shirt while tossing the dice at the craps table. Rub the mollusk for good luck! Look how cute he is cradling that soccer ball. I love these shirts. 

Carlos Bocanegra is moving from Rennes in France to Saint-Etienne for a cool 500,000 euros. 

Could Ronaldinho be moving to the LA Galaxy? That would be a great one-up for the MLS since NY Red Bulls just signed Thierry Henry. Story at ESPN

I have a question. If anyone on the world wide web has an answer to this please comment on it. What is with this bidding war over Mario Balotelli? I don't get it? What's so great about him? Man City just had a 25 million euro bid rejected from Inter. Chelsea and Man U are battling for his signature. It seems like there are different rumors every day.


The guy didn't even feature in the Champions League final and was subbed in with a 3-1 lead over Barcelona in the semi's. He whines more than Terrell Owens. I could understand if he was upset to not be in the starting squad if he was putting up good numbers, but 11 goals in 40 appearances isn't exactly stellar. Thats about one goal every four matches, or in a 38 game season is 9-10 goals. That number doesn't give him the title of "priceless" more like over priced. I understand that he's only 19 and odds are he will improve and will make me eat my words but teams shouldn't be paying that kind of money for him. Teams throw out that kind of cash for David Villa like players.
