More nutcases

In an upset even out-upsetting an unknown knocking favourite Rafa Nadal out of Wimbledon, Italy beat the much fancied Germany in the European football cup, with two goals from the outrageously talented Mario Balotelli.

Mr. Balotelli plies his everyday trade in Manchester and is regarded by the British Press as two goalposts short of a football pitch. All I can say is let's have a few nutcases in the England side. In addition, Mr Balotelli went and hugged his mother, and then made modest speeches, in two languages, congratulating the players who had helped him score the goals.

Contrast this with the England team.

Much celebration also in this corner of England where the Italians have always been regarded as the exemplary footballing idea. At least since the very great and late Enzo Bearzot changed their game in the seventies.

"We" will win on Sunday as well, and you are right about Ballotelli.

Got to be anon, google thing is broke

AMERICAN MEDIA felt compelled to exhaustively explain "Super Mario" and his ethnicities, in fact in suffocating detail! ** SOME WHERE in that lead paragraph of sports news from "EURO 2-12" football was any mention made of his actual prowess on the field of battle! ** AND NO - unlike the Lord Mayor of London - his imprimateur did not include a time @ ETON preparatory school! -30-
