The shortlist for this year's Ballon d'Or awards was announced today and we just
have to
ask: how will C-Ron be able to top his suavely suited style from last year? Oh, and who do you
think will win? That's important too.
It's nearly the end of 2011 (already!), which means its time for leagues and/or associations to
bestow some shiny medal to a few of footy's fiercest faces and bodies. Personally, we can't say we
have a storied past of winning things and thus, know how it feels since most of the plaques stored
beneath our desks say "Dirty Tackle" on them, but we (like most girls) have practised our beauty
queen waves all the same.
Stephen Ireland wouldn't dare forget to bring his snakeskin pants to Ronaldinho's next pyjama
party...would he?
If you think this is good, just wait.
It gets better.
Saturday
- We offered our steamiest congrats to Barcelona's Victor Valdes, who received the Catalan
Athlete of the year award.
Two important housekeeping issues we'd like to reiterate:
1. Watch what you eat or suffer the allergic reaction consequences ala Iker;
2. Today's the last day to vote in our FPCOTY poll. Have your say here.
