Quoting Hsin:

All I’m rooting for at the Orange Bowl is as much controversy as possible! Maybe the refs will do an even worse-r job.

There’s already one. Justice O’Connor is being biased and letting the Longhorns to start first. And she’s from Taxes! Obviously she would go for Texas!

Alright. Alright. I’m being an asshole.

Let the Rose Bowl (tag) begins!

Damn. Being sick today is fun with the game on TV.

p/s – seeing how the Trojans got their first touchdown, I think the Longhorns are getting cream’d.

pp/s – maybe not. USC 7 – 9 UT. But that UT touchdown totally wasn’s a legit touchdown.

ppp/s – hook ’em horns. UT 16. SC doesn’t seem to be doing anything to stop UT in the second quarter.

p4/s – SC is leading right now but Texas is on fire!

p5/s – Texas leads. And yeah, yeah, yeah. Michigan lost to SC in Rose Bowl 2004. So what? The commentators need to shut up.

p6 – whoa! Vince Young made a 45-yard rush!

p7/s – Vince Young is probably one of the craziest quarterbacks I’ve ever seen. Just because of him, I think I’m switching camp. Plus, Texas beat OSU earlier. So, Hook ’em Horns!

p8/s – Texas has two minutes to win the game. Or else.

p9/s – 5-yard penalty against SC and first down for Texas. Holy shit!

p10/s – what did I tell you? Vince Young is crazy! He rushed and touchdown Horns! Then a 2 pointer. Long live the king. USC is off the number 1.

p11/s – well, not yet. There are 19 seconds left and SC is calling a timeout.

p12/s – Yahoo!

Now, enter 2006. Truly.

Until very recently, many people have been criticizing Joe Paterno for Littany Lions’ poor performance. Including me. This season however, Paterno proves that old dog can learn new tricks.

I wish Penn State the best of all luck. And Go Big Ten!

p/s – Right now, the Orange Bowl (tag), Penn State versus Florida State, is entering its third overtime, tied at 23 – 23.

pp/s – Penn State won. Now, there’s only one thing left – Trojans versus Longhorns. As much as I hate to say this, I’m rooting for Trojans. Nope. No Texan for me please.

Ajax (tag) won 2-0 against NAC. That’s three consecutive victories in the Eredivisie. At the same time, excessive good luck brought Ajax from the seventh place to four.

On the same day Ajax faced NAC, all Ajax’s nearest competitors ate too much grass and hence, allowing Ajax to march on. The sweetest is, of course, Feyenoord’s loss to ADO Den Haag! Seeing Feyenoord losing to a team that sticks at the bottom is even better than seeing Manchester United failing to progress beyond Champions League’s group stage.

Another much needed good news is Rosenborg. He seems to have found his form, scoring three goals in the last five matches. It might be too soon to celebrate but if Ajax has found its striker, the world will tremble.

Currently, AZ Alkmaar sits on top of the table, sharing points with second placed PSV. Feyenoord’s third and Ajax, as mentioned earlier, up in fourth.

All in all, this revival looks good. w00t!

In the next round of Champions League, Ajax will be up against – guest who? Hint: Italian team. Hint 2: Familiar faces. Drumroll please – Inter f-Milan!

Goddamned f-again! For the love of everything sensible in this world, why must Ajax face Italian teams and Arsenal every time there’s a Champions League season at hand?

I’d have prefer anyone by the f-Italian. Somebody must’ve cursed Ajax over something: thy shall play the Italian (and Arsenal) forever and ever. Bah!

I don’t believe Ajax has a chance to progress further beyond the last 16 stage. All seven possible teams that Ajax could have gone up against, namely f-Juventus, Barcelona, Villareal, AC f-Milan, Inter f-Milan, Lyon and Liverpool are too huge to handle given Ajax’s current sorry state. Ajax’s currently stand at sixth in the Eredivisie, under team such as NEC and RKC. Most embarrassing. Luckily, in the last few match, Ajax’s bucking up.

Right now however, knowing that Ajax will be up against an Italian team again, Ajax must win. A Dutch win will show the crybaby in Milan how to differentiate between the beauty and the beast.
