For his potty mouthed outburst following Argentina's win over Uruguay. (translation)

Here is an even more graphic video.

Till three weeks ago, Maradona remained unrepentant.

"I was getting it off my chest, and I don't regret it," Maradona said. "I gave my mother a kiss on the forehead and told her: 'If I was wrong I ask your forgiveness, but nobody else'.

In a Copa Del Rey match, Jerzy Dudek was the goalie under siege as Francisco Borja scored the first goal, a under pressure Alvaro Arbeloa scored an own goal, Ernesto Gomez tapped in a third, and Borja completed Madrid's woebegone display with his second goal and Alcorcon's fourth.

Pellegrini rested Kaka and his place was taken by Guti.

I wanted to write this the other day when I actually read a piece that Harry 'check out my eye-bags' Redknapp wrote in his column in the Sun newspaper. My apologies for it being later than a London bus.

Having returned from London last night I can now safely say that if I see another beer ever again it'll be too soon. Well, ever might be too strong. Certainly until Wednesday.

What a fantastic weekend though. The Arseblog 5-a-side tournament took place on Saturday afternoon and the Green team, captained by yours truly, fought off the jet-leg, the hangovers and the fact we were playing away from home, to triumph over the reigning champions the Whites, as well as the Blues, the Reds and the Piss Drinking Yellows.

Spurs have recently been just that in the side of Chelsea. Last year, those bums were able to not only pry the Carling Cup from our hands but also also deal a devastating blow to our Premier League title aspirations let's be real, Robbie Keane's out-of-nothing finish did that.

Some have already mentioned "karma" in the situation of Abby Wambach's broken leg. Even in a context where it should have no bearing, it's impossible to ignore the previous controversy of team members who were angry with Hope Solo's statements at the past World Cup.
Now, do I believe that Hope Solo had a little voodoo doll of these players that she stuck pins into? Click to continue reading...
