Is Antonio Cassano finally ready to take the burden of high expectations that is inevitably
connected to his god-given gift? Since his first days, Italian football bad-boy has been combining
the amazing talent with his tough Bari childhood street habits. It was many years ago, on one rainy
night at San Nicola stadium when he exploded playing around with twice his age, Laurent Blanc.
One of the most popular shows in Italy is "Striscia la Notizia" a parody news show
(kind've like a Daily Show with Jon Stewart or a Colbert Report but more variety show styled) that
is broadcast on Canale 5 in Italy. It is a very funny show and the news covers all aspects of daily
life. Probably one of the shows most famous segments is the "Tapiro D'Oro"
(pictured) [Golden Anteater Award] which is given to celebrities and famous people who are
embarrassed in the media.
