The Champions League Final against Barcelona. Wheee!
We didn’t have a lot of championships in Cleveland — like, um, none — so when any team I cheer for gets close, I revert to small childhood. (Gods help me if LeBron and four guys in matching shirts beat the Pistons.)
I will not be reachable between 11:30 and 2 pm PDT.
That is all.
PS – click on the link to see Ronaldinho auditioning for a job pouring drinks on the Love Boat. (At least until UEFA changes it and ruins the fun.)
UPDATE: At the last minute, I found a Barcelona supporter to watch the game with. Couldn’t have been more fun. The Arses lost their first shot at a European title, 2-1, which was more than a fair result, given that Arsenal’s early 1-0 lead was the result of two horrific calls by the ref. The game could easily have been 3-0, so things worked out for the best.
And I get the dark satisfaction of cheering for yet another team that blows a lead near the end of a big game.
