Adriano has been doing really well since returning to Brazil and getting his head back together.
So well, in fact, that people are even using his image on their products. Unfortunately, those
products are drugs.
From the Corriere dello Sport:
Now that Adriano is back in Rio de Janeiro and is the top scorer in the Brazilian championship
with Flamengo, he's so popular that his picture is even selling packets of drugs.

.... Lots of it. After looking like the virtual champion of Campeonato Brasileiro, Palmeiras
lost points and the chances of confirming the title. And with that, 4 clubs have now the chance of
taking the title away from the side headed by Muricy Ramalho. In the 31st round of Brasileiro,
Atletico-MG, Inter, Sao Paulo and Flamengo won their matches and are just a few step away from
jumping to first (something that can happen in the next round).

Welcome back, football fans. For the moment, I'm temporarily suspending my feud with ESPN. (I
call it a feud even though I believe that in order for it to actually be a feud, ESPN would have to
start arguing with me or, at least, recognize that I exist.) It does appear that ESPN has posted
it's schedule for the weekend with days to spare for a change, for what it's worth given the few
