Latest development in the already long running Thierry Henry handball incident (or "la main de
dieu" as it's being called by some) is that Henry himself thinks a replay is a good idea:
"The fairest solution would be to replay the game but it is not in my control," said the
Barcelona striker.

Dirty Tackle 21 September @ 07:00 PM EST
Theirry Henry and Allen Iverson, now sadly carrying on his basketball career with the Memphis
Grizzlies, were brought together in Barcelona by their shared sponsor Reebok for...I don't know
some kind of cross-promotional brand synergy thing (or maybe corporate hypnosis and introduction to
cannibalism?

- The summer transfer window was supposed to have closed a few days ago, yet the rumours persist,
with an avalanche of new reports crashing down on us, all claiming the same thing: A Robinho-Henry
swap is on the cards for Barca and Man City.
Apparently, Pep is still hankering for a winger after failed attempts to sign Riera or Mata, and
Robinho would be a fitting choice; while Man City owners are really keen on having Henry join their
team.

Hola there, Blaugrana world! We've been away for a few days, but we're back and posting now!
Andresito returns with us, but we're afraid injury has struck Thierry Henry...
Titi's having problems in the Achilles tendons of not one, but
both his legs. Strangeness
much? It happened during the Chivas match and medics still aren't sure when he'll return.

7am Kickoff 01 June @ 09:02 AM EST
It's going to be a scorcher here, 80 some degrees (Fahrenheit) and I think I might get the
motorcycle out. That seems like a nice way to kick off the Transfer season.
A couple of things before we get into the "news." First off, you should look for me to migrate
the site to my actual dot com site this summer.

Bayern Munich want Portsmouth's England right back Glen Johnson - and will battle with a trio of
top Premier League clubs in a fight for him. The Bundesliga outfit have made contact with Pompey
via a top agent and want to be told when the bidding starts for one of the best home-based talents
around. Pompey will [.

FC Barcelona's Gerard Pique has told the press firmly that Lionel Messi won't be leaving Barca
anytime soon. The blaugrana defender Pique stated: 'Lionel will not be gone anytime soon. Despite
the pressure of Florentino Perez (Real Madrid's chairman). It's always a pleasure to play with him
and see the amazing things he can do.

Barca's medics have given the report on Andres Iniesta's injury: a muscle tear two centimeters long
in his right thigh. He's started a special recovery program, and the latest is that he might make
the final in Rome, after all...
Anyway, Andresito seems pretty confident about it:
I will be ok for Rome. Click to continue reading...

Well, after last destroying Madrid in the Liga, we next face Villareal as the season is drawing to
an end. With only four Liga matches left, we've got to clinch the next win or two to officially
secure the title... a win over Villareal will be sufficent for us to be named champions, should
Madrid lose to Valencia.

First off, we would like to mourn the loss of Gerard Pique's splendiferous hair. He's now sporting
that annoying buzz cut he had at the start of the season, which we were able to forget once those
lovely locks grew out into perfection... and then he went and hacked them off again. He's tall,
blue-eyed, and perfectly gorgeous, and yet he always seems to find some way to mar that brilliant
appeal with hideous shirts, the most deplorable shoes, and even, on occasion, that abysmal thing
called a man-bag.

Well, you can't always thrash em.
Barca came away from the match against Recreativo with the comfortable score of 2-0. Not flashy,
but still comfortable. Given the fact that it was just three days after the last game, we can
factor in the element of fatigue. And given that the next game is just three days after, we can
factor in the necessity to bench some of the starters.

I'm a couple of days late with this, but it's worth the wait.
Thierry Henry is having a good year this year, as evidenced by this hat trick
against Valencia over the weekend. Yes, a hat trick. At 31. (All of them are good, but the first
one in particular is vintage Henry.
