so Tell me ELVIN what exactly did Milan do last season to warrant the sanction they received...
Do you even know???
If you do you will know that it was actually not match fixing but an attempt to biatch and yelp at the officials for favortism to Juve..that in itself is wrong according the la LEGA because even biatching at refs for calls is wrong...
Jog on
P.S. ONE THING IS PATHETIC here....How Juve has ruined the game and its players
I am awaiting your reply....what did Milan do??
Nick, you must be kidding, though. You make it sound as if most of Italy was blissfully putting Juve up on a pedestal as exemplary, Fair Play champions throughout history ... when all along most people had already made their minds up about whether Juve was a clean club or not before any trials.
If anything, I would say the whole thing just confirmed what many people believed all along -- accurate or not. Which is most unfortunate only because it often seems that, perhaps particularly in a place like Italy, it only takes evidence of corruption and misdeeds with an example or two to set widespread corruption theories spiralling at every turn. That's true for football as well as politics.
One example is often all it takes to whitewash a person or organization. And for a lot of people (Italian or otherwise), finding that evidence just confirms what you've believed all along. Scientific research experiences a somewhat analogous problem of using statistics to fit the theory rather than to fit the data. I think everyone had their theories long before this -- and calciopoli is just a convenient data point for them.
In the end, the whole ordeal doesn't really provide any additional information of use to those who already made up their minds.
At least Juve had the balls to admit they f*cked up in this affair. Everyone else is pulling the Bart Simpson defense, pretending that nothing happened.

What the fuck. I just learned DC United will be taking on Real Madrid on August 9th, not in Washington DC or the surrounding metropolitan area, but over 3000 fucking miles away at Qwest Field in fucking Starbucks-Who-Gives-a-Fuck-About-Soccer-in-Seattle, Washington.
Well that's just brilliant. Make all your true supporters who attend every single match pay 500 bucks for a plane ticket and 100 for a hotel just to see your team play Real Madrid. Why in Sam's fuck did you ad-wizards at DC United schedule a game in Seattle? Is it not rainy enough here for you?
Fucktards.
