Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - We are SO back, the Premier League returns!

Mario Balotelli has ordered a life-sized statue of himself to keep in his Brescia home. The Milan striker, who was on Tuesday fined €10,000 (£8,600) for making an "insulting gesture" towards Internazionale supporters at the end of the derby on Sunday, has contacted a local artist to make the statue, in order to "immortalise" himself.

"I have received the commission, but I've never met Balotelli so I am working from photos," Livio Scarpella told Il Giornale di Brescia. "I presented several drawings but Mario wanted to be immortalised in a pose that shows him having scored a goal, highlighting his muscles and with an expression of defiance.

"I have imagined him as an athlete from ancient times and the statue will be a mix of classical and pop style in platinum and coloured bronze with the eyes made of stones."

Italian media have suggested the pose wanted by Balotelli is the one he showed off after scoring against Germany in the Euro 2012 semi-final and will reportedly be kept among other contemporary art items in the attic of the striker's new home, designed by the architect Roberto Falconi.

This will go good with his camouflage Bentley which clearly goes with everything.

But hey, I guess a statue is the only way to accurately capture his time in England. Never moving from the bench.

Those racist birds are going to have a field day with this.

[yoyoyo1]

by far the one with the most rave reviews!


as for dstyles, i knew that would happen. i took a look and when you use the same username for everything anyone can just dig dig dig on google and eventually find something. especially if you use it on other forums where people can look up your posts. never underestimate the motivation of someone to get you

its weak though cause they basically saw that other thread on the other board and then ran with it... same thing with **** and that other site. no one from here actually discovered anything

Puyol

Only @DStyles looked worse than Puyol and Barca today


I went on my second POF thing tonight. I know yesterday I said I dont like bigger girls, but the joint today was an exception. She tall and more of a big girl than a fat girl. She took pics at far away distances so I couldnt tell entirely if she was fat, big, or thick. I became convinced over texting and talking on the phone that this girl was an eater because she liked talking about cooking and tweet me pics of her dishes. (the dishes looked nice, tbf)

I met her after work. She actually drove from Arlington to get coffee with me (I work down by McPherson, and the coffee spot was next to my job, lol). I felt bad about it tbh, but she was a trooper. She is a lil bigger than I usually but she is kind of tall (just under 6 feet) so she carries her weight well. Im one of the weirdos on there that reads the profiles (I read them because I feel that has separated myself from others) so she comes across as really interesting. Then chatting with her, she is a nice woman. (also she is a little older than me and well advanced in her career).

She works for a big time business firm (if you from the DC area, you know what firm I am talking about) and she does Marty Kaan like work (altho not for Casino heads, lol).

Anyway, the girl was really really really nice. But she bigger than I like. She is meh physically, but her personality is very kind. We talked for about 2 hours about a wide variety of topics (yeah, most bytches like me because I can talk about anything. gift and a curse ), which doesnt surprise me because we had a good rapport over the phone. It seemed she liked me a lot, but who knows. Physically she but she is a sweet woman. She even drove me to the train station even tho it was a block away. (it was raining hard, and I had no hat or umbrella).

I will probably see her again because she was so nice and I feel there was a connection between us. Dont know if it will progress to a relationship, but I would love to eat whatever she cooks. I think I could beat within the next week if I pushed it, but thats not saying much.

On to the next one.

You got your Saturday date?

 

[mastermind]

You got your Saturday date?

yeah, that is this Saturday. She is a grad student and nurse.

That feels like it will be a real date, so I may have to put more effort into this one. She blew me because I like not spending shyt on women at first, but she a grad student and a nurse so I gotta make due.

I might catch some flack from the "reggae/dancehall headz" (is this a thing?) here but I generally dislike any of that when I hear it.

But when Diplo/Major Lazer does it it's sorta piff

Why you gotta come at me like that breh breh You only fukks with my bredrins dem tunez when it's filtered by the WHITE MAN

You are the worst faux-foreigner, quasi-militant type ever.

I honestly just don't know where to start with reggae. I like that one song, "Don't Let it go to Your Head" from GTA but that's about it (actually, I don't even remember if that's a reggae song. That's just a good song in general).

But I've had this on repeat today

I love when Barcelona loses... I hope Real Madrid have overconfidence when they come to Trafford

 

[Scottie Drippin]

The Major Lazer sound in most-part rooted in 90's dancehall and 80's lovers rock. Diplo also has a particular affinity for early 80's tunes which are on the fuzzy dancehall/lovers rock line as the dancehall genre was starting to take form at the time, but that doesn't really find it's way into Lazer's music as much. That Don't Let it Get to Your Head joint is early reggae, for the sake of easier categorizing, skinhead reggae. Black Harmony were even a British group. Saying you don't like reggae is almost as much of a blanket statement as saying you don't like rock breh breh.




Two of the biggest tunes of all time.

Manchester City willing to take £7m hit on Nasri - Goal.com

Both he and City are fools if they think teams out there will pay 17 million pounds + his 165K /week wages....
