I know you don't need any justification for this one, but Debora Salvalaggio
dated Super Bobo. And Super Pippo. And she no only knows (as she
says) a lot about football, but also used to host a show about it. And still finds time to do nudie
calendars!
I'm irredeemably biased when it comes to Bobo Vieri, but based on the first
half today, I think anyone could see why Cesare Prandelli prefers him to
Giampaolo Pazzini right now: He plays simple and smart and, mostly importantly
links up really well with Adrian Mutu, who is indesputably the focus of the
Fiorentina attack.
Sory this is so epic, I'm headed to the airport and wanted to pull together as much as I could
before I'm at the mercy of the FAA and the weather. God only knows when I'll get home.
