Lots of awards to tell you about! First up, Marca presented La Roja with a series of awards today. The first being their Platinum Award. The group pictures either look like mug shots or attempting to wrangle cats, what with everyone looking in opposite directions. Continue reading
Cassano Fined By UEFA For Homophobic Comments
20 Jul
In a move that surprised and pleased me, the UEFA got their heads out of their arses long enough to fine Antonio Cassano for his homophobic remarks during a Euro 2012 presser. Continue reading
Bits & Bobs: Schmoopfest, Vegas, Miami, Thailand, Poznan & PMS
9 JulGuti and Romina are apparently not in the same city right now, which cues endless schmoopy messages of love back and forth on Twitter. Gutes posted this piccy. They’re calling each other ‘mommy’ and ‘daddy,’ people. I may not survive this pregnancy. Continue reading
Countdown To Ovary Detonation In Three…Two…One
7 JulWatishista April found this video with some new angles on the celebration. There’s tons of Nando, Leo & Nora (including where he uses his legendary booty as a dollie storage unit), more Enzo Cazorla, Sergio & Daniela and after a brief part showing the fans dancing, everyone on the planet finding the cheeks of Aitana Negredo irresistible (especially Iker). Also, anyone know who is the little boy that Albiol is carrying around? I’m assuming it’s his nephew. I saw a quick shot in an earlier video, but I can see the little boy much clearer in this video.
– Lozil

Campeones de Europa!
5 JulAh now y’all have seen the La Roja bebes, you’ve seen the boys get drunk on the bus, and you’ve seen Pepe’s show, well now we’re back to where it all began – the fab Euro 2012 final match! For me, throughout the tournament, La Roja just wasn’t wowing me. They struggled a bit to play their best or what we’re used to seeing, but I guess they were saving their juices for the final because they completely shined their brightest for those 90 min. They managed to dominate without boring us with non-stop passing, don’t get me wrong, they’re phenomenal at keeping possession but the attack is where all the excitement is, and they definitely brought it with the attack against Italy. No Euro Final has ever been won with a score of 4-o, Spain was the first to do it and each of their four goals was amazing. It was La Roja’s night to kick ass, win another title, and keep making history. Continue reading
