Los viejos siempre dicen que, los de antes, fueron tiempos mejores y se regocijan vociferando hazañas heroicas que sólo nos queda ver en vídeos de pobres colores. Así como ellos, cada generación está en la eterna búsqueda de la identificación, un júbilo único, de aquello que los identifique como una generación digna de envidiar por los que le siguen, buscando aquello que se sólo ella ha vivido y nadie más, en la búsqueda de un ídolo icónico al cuál recordar con nostalgia cuando los años marquen las horas y, entonces, poder contar hazañas heroicas y decir que, los de antes, fueron tiempos mejores.
Ah, the magic of the French cup We've just got over our annual dose of nostalgia during FA Cup
third round weekend, but there was definitely a distinct lack of chicken chasing from England's
footballing minnows. The FA Cup has been outdone by France's Coupe De France. Fifth division outfit
Sable face the giants of [.
New Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers is confident his vision for the club will persuade his star
players to remain at Anfield.
Despite the Northern Irishman conceding that a lack of Champions League football could mean the

to soothe any doubts some may harbour.

While this piece, more general than usual, is not strictly to do with Manchester United,
there are more than a few references to the club and its past and the overriding feelings of the
write-up is one that'll surely resonate more with United fans than others. It is appropriate and
topical, though not quite anything to do with the side this season and the title race, rather in
reaction to the Premier League's sudden 'look at me' celebrations, looking back nostalgically at
the best of the League since it started back in 1992; players, managers, even quotes.
David Hytner's article hints at Ivan Gazidis's plans to sell the Arsenal brand:
" Gazidis has identified a huge discrepancy between the worldwide reach of the Arsenal brand
and the revenue that it generates. He believes that bringing the latter up to speed - the club have
sophisticated strategies in place to do so - is the surest way forward.
One of American soccer's most storied and celebrated names returns in 2012 as the (new) NASL's
Tampa Bay team recently re-acquired its traditional name and logos after a protracted legal battle.
The original Rowdies were my first soccer love, the team of my youth, my pride and joy and the Bay
area's first major professional team and "a kick in the grass" from 1975 until they folded in
1993.
Last year's incredible comeback win in the World Series by the St. Louis Cardinals over the Texas
Rangers was breathtaking. So much so, that it could have won over new fans to the sport.
MLB must capitalize on what transpired to create more momentum for this upcoming season.
By J Hutcherson - WASHINGTON, DC (Mar 13, 2012) US Soccer Players -- I have no complaints about old
stadiums. I'm as likely as anyone you know to walk willingly into the warm embrace of nostalgia
when it comes to old ballparks. I was reading books about stadiums that no longer existed when I
was in grade school, and my enthusiasm hasn't really waned.
Arsenal smashed Blackburn Rovers on the weekend. Scoring several goals, dominating the match and
appearing genuinely impressive for the first time in a long time Arsenal looked like Arsenal used
to look like. In the eyes of Arsenal fans Arsenal played like Arsenal should always be playing. In
the eyes of neutrals Arsenal got their old swagger back.
The Philadelphia Union may have claimed to Philly Soccer Page that they haven't talked to
Deportivo Cali, but Faryd Mondragon is headed to Colombia. Liga Posotbon, the Colombian top league,
is reporting on its official websitethat Mondragon is returning to Deportivo.

and forth from practices during his youth at the club.
The 2002 Champions League Final is fondly remembered for that volley by Zinedine Zidane. As the rain swept over Hampden Park Zidane's iconic goal handed Madrid the lead for the second time that evening and eventually handed them the trophy, a fitting way to win to for any side to clinch victory. However the oft [.
Recently Soccer Speak USA, a humble blog of ideas that was created to help act as discussion
tool and more optimistically, a catalyst for change at the grassroots of U.S. soccer – surpassed
5000 hits.
Not a number that screams ‘listen to my me because my ideas are great' but rather an indicator
that there are indeed people out there that believe soccer can reach its potential in this country
through innovative approaches to help foster a cultural shift in the big four ‘Americanized'
sports of NFL, Baseball, Basketball and Ice Hockey.

3 Football Tumblrs we're enjoying this week is a post from: Just Football
Tumblr. It kind of crept up out of nowhere didn't it? Blogs were busy going about their business
just fine and then Twitter came along and whipped up a storm, but somewhere in between the two,
like a snack between lunch and dinner, Tumblr emerged.
Relationships are tough. The wide range of emotions that flood one's psyche can cloud the senses
and make things seem better (or worse) than they really are. Remorse, nostalgia, jealousy,
betrayal, lust – well on a soccer blog, that last ...

With the news that Tom Benson is buying the NBA franchise New Orleans Hornets, it seems like a good
time to review piss-poor unoriginal nicknames, like the Hornets, or inappropriate nicknames that
don't fit well, like the Jazz in Utah.
Anytime a video (about anything, really) begins with music from Sigur Rós, you can
assume it will be either amazing or horribly pretentious. In this case, the former is justified.
The Republic of Cyprus has a population of about one million people.
Traditional arcade video games permitted to remain team entertained from many years. Nowadays,
they stay although many of the largest proportion typical video games on the market, in spite of
this smattering personnel experience monitors in course of an arcade or perhaps the bit of
equipment in course of sing out the games which they love.
Football is built on memories. it's those footballers we grow up with that truly define the way we
watch and enjoy football throughout our lives. But where are they now?... During a daily internet
browse, sodden with nostalgia to an extend that I really shouldn't admit to, I find myself
listening to N*Sync.
There has been an increase for televisions in homes every year up until last year. Hulu.com is one
of the reasons 2011 marked the first time ever since television was created that less people claim
to have a TV in their home than the previous year.
If ever there was a match made in Heaven in the footballing world, it would have to be between
Arsenal and Thierry Henry, who have found each other again after a five-year absence, with the
magic the same as it ever was.
It was an otherwise drab encounter, with little to get excited about as a makeshift Arsenal team
struggled to break down a determined and dogged Leeds side coming with only one intention a
lucrative replay.

During the friendly against Uruguay, it was not only the style of play expectorated out by our boys
in blue that caught the eye, nor simply Riccardo Montolivo's pale, cold, and bewitching face, and
more than just Cesare Prandelli's jacket, it was the dazzling new blue shirts worn by the Azzurri
that truly slapped the mind of this restless footballing warrior (apologies to Elton John for that
metaphor) with the cold hand of seduction, perfumed on the wrist with a heady glamour tinged with
the unearthly fumes of nostalgia, all the while softly intoning in a luscious Pisan accent a call
for it's soft, azure fabric to be worn in sickness and in health, an irresistible siren's call from
an antique realm.
