A spokesman for Roman Abramovich denied a news report on Monday that the billionaire Russian owner of London's Chelsea soccer club had been arrested in the United States.

random reference to a bay?? Baia de Todos-os-Santos (wikipedia)

the northeast is so poor!!!

wikipedia'ed club titles, woe is them vs the bigger clubs of the south

Not anything they haven't been through before tbh. Doubt there was any foul play in Berezovsky's death either.

In other news:

It will come as a considerable blow to Arsenal’s hopes of maximising their next kit deal to learn that adidas are no longer interested.

Adidas, wary of the money Arsenal want, believe they already have a strong hand of Champions League clubs in Chelsea, Real Madrid, AC Milan and Bayern Munich and extra Premier League exposure with Swansea, Stoke, Sunderland and West Bromwich Albion with West Ham likely to be their next London club signing.

One of the Arsenal ITKs :ld: said Nike matched. They were/tried using Adidas to ramp up the price but they weren't stressing Arsenal.

Where is this Ultra shyt streaming at?

I've been listening to the Red Bull Music Academy sets down in MIA this weekend, but I guess they're not part of the same thing?

Nah.

Ultra is just the big event during the Winter Music Conference, where there's a million events being thrown with all the best DJ's in town for 10 days.

Just started a new job, didn't want to take the time off.

Missed out on so much piffery.

My brehette:
Went to a Jamie xx boiler room set
Went to a Jamie xx and Four Tet pool party
Saw Skream spin a house set
Went to a Boyz Noize event and met them and Steve Aoki
Sat at Skrillex's VIP table
Went to a Red Bull sponsored breakfast party (from 3am to 7am) that was invite only

Basically went on a ballin ass four day Miami bender.....and I could've been there the entire time :noah::noah::noah::noah:

fukk workplace etiquette :sadbron:

I'm going to make up for this by going to TomorroWorld in Atlanta.

Only thing I got into this weekend was being hit on by a 57 year old 3rd generation Jamaican chinese woman at a landscaper to the stars house.

If Putin seriously wanted him gone he'd have been dead long before the weekend. As for Roman? Berezovsky lost the court case and had to pay his legal fees.

He bodied himself cause he was broke and :flabbynsick:

One of the Mexican media members on hand was a Récord reporter, Álvaro Cruz, who triumphantly tweeted: "Klinsmann caught us taping him from up high and they sent the police, but it was impossible to prevent Mexican journalism from winning this game."

:russ: another legendary win for the glorious nation of mexico, fukk those gringos

Papoose finally is going to release his album :ohhh:

I remember when I first listened to the nonsensical lyrics of Alphabet Slaughter like it was yesterday

Reading his wikipedia page I didn't know he was married to Remy Ma, or that he's currently a grad student :ohhh:

Or that his name also means 'baby/baby carrier' :laugh:
