was it just me

or did every game i watch this weekend have a crazy ending?
Man U Sunderland, Juventus Lecce, Villa Everton, Sevilla Real, Dallas Pittsburgh, the list goes on...
i was lucky enough to take in a large part of 3 games this saturday, arsenal, man united, and barcelona.
It almost seems silly to write about this now, ( i began this post on sunday, but since i've gotten sick, i didn't get back to it until now).
There's no question which one of the aforementioned was the most impressive. Barca. They're in a class by themselves at the moment. Dani Alves could probably play anywhere on the field, but he just so happens to be probably the most dangerous right back the world has ever seen, how convenient. He combines so well with Messi, who is just Messi, and I have to mention again how him and Ronaldo are polar opposites when it comes to how they handle their treatment. Granted, Ronaldo's style does lend itself to him being in some more all or nothing situations which ronaldo is right to go down if he does lose the ball. but my case and point was illustrated sunday when Ronaldo went grimacing off with his trademark overembellishing of an injury after 64 minutes, whereas Messi just shrugs off challenges like there is no tommorow and lets the ref do his job.

Still like the bcs texas fans?
