IS STRAIGHT-UP TRAGIC. He looks so awkward -- JMV should not look awkward.

1. <3 I have the impression he can back to Florence just for the match, too. &hearts Now it's back to more rehab, and a second surgery. Poor lamb.
2. lol +1 for you, that's a brilliant thesis.
3. ... I might be experiencing exactly the same problem.
4. Look at him and Blasi, being so cute in their indiscipline! The funny thing was, as soon as he got done with the headbutt, he didn't even look mad, just sort of confused and resigned. *pats his horrible hair*

This is true -- that awkward is very welcome. This kind is, well, what you said. (Do you think a wig would help, or do we need to just wait until it grows back, so he learns, once and for all, NEVER TO DO THAT AGAIN?)

2. *chortles* If you ever find out, please share. I might need one, I mean, might have a friend who needs one.
3. Oh, he so totally can -- dude is well into silver fox territory, y/y? He just needs to find a slightly more subtle/more adult way to show us. (Though splitting pants would be totally hilarious -- I wonder if the bench would be afraid to laugh, or if they'd all just fall out, despite Sinisa's fundamental scariness.)
4. *WEEPS*

1. lol Possibly not but, in that outfit, if he tries to hit/grab anyone, his shirt will limit his freedom of movement, so I think it's safe. For now. *g*
2. Oh god, I saw a picture of him after the match with such reasonable hair, I almost sent it to you. Hold on, let me dig it up. Here! LOL. LOLOLOL.
3. The hell are they even doing? Not that I mind, but way to subtle, baldy and almost-baldy. <3

2. *pats* But the new hair is working -- he won the #1 shirt and played well yesterday. MUST NOT CHANGE WHAT WORKS!
3. Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww. We can only hope, because they'd be totally mismatched and adorable.

1. Then, either the lighting changed dramatically, or ADV changed his jacket. He's not stood under a floodlight any more.
2. Owing to Inter, I keep seeing Figo everywhere. Sorry, chap in the background.
3. Sinisa, who seems to be buying clothes under the mistaken assumption he still wears the same size he wore 15 years ago I think he's trying to show off his knob. (Also, look how shiny his forehead is! If we need to signal for help, we can use it for heliography.)
4. WAS TITCH'S T-SHIRT NOT THE SWEETEST THING OF ALL TIME?! It seems familiar, too; has he worn it before?
5. and (one hopes) periodically waving his crutches encouragingly. HE'S GOT MORE THAN ONE?... Oh, right, I get it.
6. I like how bald!Pazzo has sneaked in to roll his eyes at Monty's flirting.
7. When did Monty turn into a floozy? "Turn into"?
8. WHAT ON EARTH DID HE PUT ON IT.
9. I love how LDS has yellow bunny ears. Wear them always, Lorenzo.
10. Good thing Boruc didn't start, wasn't it?
11. He's not wagging his finger at him! He's offering him some chocolate sauce ( ... )

1. I wonder if he could travel with a spotlight? It seems to suit his clothes ( ... )

1. Excellent! And a brass band who strike up the Fiorentina song whenever he enters the room.
3. What? Look at this pic; there's a million creases and whatnot! And even if you can't see owt, you know that's what he's aiming for. *Sigh* Men. (PS "We will clearly never see eye to eye on knobs" was singularly disturbing, and gave me visions of us performing a blow job together. Possibly the most shambolic blow job of all time ( ... )

3. *laughs for MONTHS*
6. Look, just making Pazzo MORE bald isn't going to make me like him. :P
8. *weeps for JMV's lost hair prowess*
13. Could do with a few more goals from him, though -- I bet you he'll take the braces in exchange for the ability to score regularly.

14. Monty, "CC" is not a secret. (I liked your bitchfight with Hamsik, though. It was hilarious.)
15. See what I mean about Lavezzi? CZ obviously didn't mind, though, since he smacked his arse and all.
16. The ref wasn't too bad. Well, OK, he was, but he gave really good googly eyes to Cavani to get him to shut up. Cavani: HOW DARE YOU GIVE ME A YELLOW CARD JUST FOR FOULING SOMEONE! Ref: D8<
17. Cerci's hair scares me.
18. What a waste.
19. The headbutting was sort of sad because Camapgnaro wandered a few feet away and THEN decided to grab his face. Pathetic. (However, I like how the ref can show two cards at once. Told you he had potential.)
20. OH MY GOD BLASI REALLY DID WATCH THE REST OF THE MATCH WITH VARGAS! XD The commentator said that when he was on his way off and I thought "Yeah, very likely." They're so companionable!
21. Poor Gila. Maybe he would smile if Viola won the triple?
22. I will instead focus on how sweet it is that Cesare left his good luck game shoes for Sinisa to wear. Aw! OH GOD THAT IS SO DISTURBING. Wait. ( ... )

16. He was just random, which is never inspiring in a referee. Right, poor, victimized Edi?
17. It is INSANE! Can that be natural? What a nightmare to try to tame.
19. Yeah, I really don't think he even hit him, do you? But, really, JMV ought to know even trying it = red. What was he thinking? Obviously the hair was to blame.
20. &hearts Ask Lisa for the naughty step pictures from that insane, red-card laden Holland-Portugal match -- Deco and Gio VB were sitting all mushed together, watching and bitching about the referee. Cutest thing ever.
21. lol lololol LIKE WE'LL EVER SEE THAT.
22. HA! I knew you'd be concerned Sini had them instead of Jose. (Did you check Jose's feet yesterday? I'm guessing he upgraded his footwear for The Great Real Madrid, but I didn't actually make sure.)
24. <3 That would explain why Vargas' posture suggest surprise -- he still forgets he's not got much anymore.
26. lol I'm pretty sure you say that every time Gila takes off his kit. He wouldn't smile about it, but one imagines he'd be flattered, at least.

16. Cavani: *Whinge*
17. My problem with it is that it's too neat. *Scratches head* I don't know how to describe it, it looks like a dodgy perm. (And of course it's natural! I ought to know, I used to want hair like that SO MUCH when I was younger.)
21. 2008!person: Maybe Javi would cry if Inter won the triple?
2008!Martha: lol lolol LIKE WE'LL EVER SEE THAT. (Not that I'm actually suggesting Viola will win anything. They wear purple and that's seldom a good sign.)
22. *Heavy sigh* I think I've already given up on this Real Madrid thing. I try to focus on José, but all these irritating Other People keep shoving their faces in. Some of them very irritating indeed. *Checks pictures* He wore shiny black ones. Very nondescript.
26. XD Sorry, I always forget the last time I said it. He might manage a gratified expression before running away.

21. lol +1 I do think you're comparing apples and giant pieces of coal here, though. Even Inter, at their most (recent) hapless, were more likely to win than Fiorentina right now.
22. I am both sympathetic and interested that Real are fundamentally annoying, while Chelsea and Inter were fundamentally not. I bet there are routes to Real that would work just find, the problem is finding them ....
26. No need to apologize to me, I find it quite endearing on both your parts. :D

*sighs*
Oh, how I missed Blasi and his quest to get the most cards in any given season... at least he had company on the naughty step. (Bizarrely enough, it looks almost like he was being the voice of reason here.)

The Napoli guy I follow on Twitter is so anti "Walking Card" Blasi -- is there any chance he's going to be replaced in the next couple days, or will he continue to spend time on the naught step this season? (I was about to call it the naughty step in the spam, then I realized only you would know what I was talking about.)

I don't *think* so, but you know the silly season, never say never. (I didn't see the Quagliarella thing coming.) And we did just pick up Yebda and Sosa, which seems to give us a surfeit of midfielders.

I'm anti all the stupid cards Blasi picks up, and yet, I think he contributes something in terms of defense that was missing from the midfield last year. (Other than all the cards.) So I won't be terribly disappointed if he's around for a while.

I am starting to wonder who's calling the shots in the mercato, though. Sending Quagliarella to Juve doesn't make a lot of sense unless we've got another star striker coming in- and I don't think we do.

Sorta like a Melo, except less Brazilian? I feel like he actually offers a lot, but the cards become his reputation, which seems unfair -- to both him and Blasi, sounds like.

My outsider impression is that Quagliarella wanted out, is that accurate or completely wrong? Would he have been sitting w/Cavani there? Wonder if that was too much for his ego to take, or something.
