I Still Don’t Get It

The Offside - Houston 05 October @ 03:00 PM EST

After the Texans finished polishing off the Raiders I decided to check in on the Orange. What was the first thing I saw? It was Cam Weaver making an aggressive tackle and receiving a red card. Well, I was watching a Spanish channel so he actually received a roja card. But don't worry, I'm told it's the same thing as a red card.

Can Diamanti Emulate Di Canio?

EPL Talk 22 September @ 12:17 PM EST

Can Diamanti emulate Di Canio?

Can West Ham United's new Italian talent have the same impact on the Hammers as club legend Paolo Di Canio did between 1999 and 2003?
