Arbeloa, I know you love me because you’re wearing a Brooklyn Nets jacket. It’s your secret shout out to me and I thank you. Don’t worry, darlin’, I won’t let any one know of our love. WHOOPS!
Here’s just a few goodies because in just a few hours I’ll be heading up to Yankees Stadium to watch La Roja take on The Boys In Green. It’s gonna be all Christmas-y up on the pitch tonight.
While NY c0ntinues to be rather gloomy (though, thankfully, not as bad as yesterday), other folks were enjoying the sunshine.
Kaka & family celebrated Luca’s 5th birthday. They’ve also just returned from a vacation in St. Bart’s
Also beaching it in Chori’s absence were the Albiol Roig ladies.
Marcelo and Clarice bring the sunshine with their beautiful smiles. She’s with her girls and Marcelo is in Goiânia, Brazil with the National Team.
Romina decided to get another tattoo, this time on her neck. Guti’s habits sure are rubbing off on her.
She also posted a little shot of the whole family’s hands. Enzo is 5 months old already! Time flies. I love his little ‘mum & dad’ pants. I see also he’s rocking a graphic tee and neon bracelets. Guess Guti’s been dressing him! Tio Sergio would be proud!
Speaking of “fashion” have you seen Liverpool’s new training shirts? I thought their kits were bad enough, but OUCH. The hits keep coming. Still not as bad as Barca’s training shirts though.
Kaka recently posted this shot from his childhood saying how much he loved “Festa Junina” which is a Brazilian holiday. It’s obvious which one he is (Luca is the spitting image of his papi) but, oh, how I wish he was the kid in drag (who kinda looks like a young Cristiano, it must be said)! It would be something new to torture Shigs with.
UPDATED: Here’s a shot of the brothers Callejon, their ladies & the groin-repaired Xabi Alonso cheering on the Real Madrid basketball team.
Finally, Madridistas should keep an eye out. Apparently there’s a scam going around trying to steal our Facebook log in/password. So think twice before entering your deets on any new site. Screenshots and info at the link.
Later, all!

Of Headbands and Heartbreak... 
Have you girls read that Barca reportedly wanted to snag Varane from Real?? Shame, shame, shame on them for trying to get back at us for luring the fabolous Figo to our side in 2000.
You think the Liverpool kit is bad? Have you seen the Italy training kit? That is som psychedelic shiznit right there 😳.
I know there are no rules and/or regulations against signing with a rival team, but that sure is some cheek. It’s just … wrong. Yes, it’s happened before, but it just strikes me as bizarre. (Am still trying to work out Götze moving to Bayern.)
Yeah, I was laughing my ass off about that. If you can’t beat him, might as well try to get him to join you. 😉
But I love Varane’s reply: he did not want to leave Real Madrid in gratitude for their taking a chance on him and for all the support the fans have given him. Smart boy with good values!
Haven’t they also been all but tapping up David Luiz for about 18mths? Its like theyre trying to advertize their lack of defensive options…on that basis why would any fello CL contender sell to them? I don’t know how it works with contracts tho, is it just the case that if there is a buy out clause and they make the price the other team has to sell? And if there isn’t a buy out clause the owning team can refuse to sell even if theres a transfer in place??Sorry. lots of q marks there…
*Transfer request. sorry, I’ve got my geek head on today…
Da frick?!? Match will be played at 2 in the morning (my time)! Oooooh, damn you, European teams that mess with us European supporters’ minds by playing in the State. *sigh* I really wanted to watch this live, too … Well, nothing to be done about it now except to wish those of you lucky enough to attend the match to have a great time!
I remember getting up at 4 AM to watch RM play when they were in China. Good times.
I do that ALL THE TIME! SOP for us in Asia.
Okay… Is no one else creeped out by that pic of Caroline and Luka?!
I wasn’t going to say anything….but yep, I am too.
I’d rather see pics of Carol’s very hot brother.
Oh xabi, eternally cool.
I wonder if Marta and juanmi’s gf find their similarities funny…
