I loved it too
It made me so proud (ok, I didn't organize it or anything, but you know
)!
It was very juventina too, but I realized it later. Pavarotti and three of the last four torchbearer are juventini. :biggrin:
As for Alex, if he had been one of the last torchbearer, another one would have had to be a granata. But the games are not Torino's only, they are Italian. So, if there is a Juventino, you'd have to have also a Milanista and an Interista + a Romanista and a Laziale, since Rome is the capital city.
And, most importantly, football is always under the spotlight, it wouldn't have been fair to let it steal some attention from the other sports, that shine in Italy almost only during the Olympic games :wink:
