I...Thanks for the info Robert - it's good to know. I'm sure that the majority of clubs' reputations are the result of a small percentage of their fans - it's always nice to be reminded that the majority of fans for just about any team out there are just regular people that love to support their team.<BR/><BR/>Yeah I don't really hide my distaste for Italian soccer in general, but you are certainly always welcome here, especially to offer counterpoints to my points and different perspectives- I am a big fan of being shown when my reasoning is flawed and learning different angles, and I wish you the best of luck against ManUtd. Truth be told I'll be pleased if they knock ManUtd out - the thought of another potential ManUtd treble is sickening just to think about, even if Arsenal did do the double over them this year.<BR/><BR/>Yeah, Totti seems to be 2nd only to the Pope in Rome.<BR/><BR/>I'm looking forward to the Inter-Roma Coppa Italia Final, I just hope my co-favorite player Vieira makes it back from injury in time to partake.Kanuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02959256951835399304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25555967.post-31599725290278062282007-03-09T17:25:00.000-08:002007-03-09T17:25:00.000-08:00Kanu, I just read your post about how you're pulli...Kanu, I just read your post about how you're pulling for Liverpool as you hate them the least and go on to say that Roma has some racist fans. This is true, but for what I've seen, the whole country is filled with them and I don't know how the league/squads will be able to stop it. The circle that I hung around with were young, educated, fanatical Roma fans that wanted nothing to do with the idiots and we saw the games out in a local bar.<BR/><BR/>And yes, Totti is amazing and obviously the key to Roma's success or failure. He has that city in a spell. It'll be interesting to see how the team does against ManU.Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15637589845715676492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25555967.post-14958798372590305912007-03-09T16:36:00.000-08:002007-03-09T16:36:00.000-08:00Nice dude, congrats then and good luck to you.I Ca...Nice dude, congrats then and good luck to you.<BR/><BR/>I Can't ever remember seeing any footy team whose performance was so tied to that of their inspirational leader than Roma & Totti. It's nutty and fascinating. That guy is literally a god there, and seems to make all the difference in the world to them.Kanuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02959256951835399304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25555967.post-74019540391250084342007-03-09T16:19:00.000-08:002007-03-09T16:19:00.000-08:00I spent 8 months living in Rome in 2006, so I have...I spent 8 months living in Rome in 2006, so I have adopted the giallorossi as my squad, even though I really don't like how the Italians play soccer. Totti and De Rossi are my guys, and I was sporting my Roma scarf here on Tuesday and Wednesday even though it was about 78 both days here in Tallahassee.Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15637589845715676492noreply@blogger.com
