off season

for football crazy people, the worst time of the year is now... there's absolutely nothing to talk about. the dreaded hiphenated words : off-season...

the pic on the side though is just some crap movie where they try to scare you with ghosts. but the real off-season is way more scary than that.

its a time when people sit online waiting for bits of news from the big players and clubs and transfer rumours. rumours which are more often than not, full of shit...

rumours of 100milliion pound transactions when the players involved are blissfully oblivious to the ruccus made in the news.

thank god cricket doesn't have an off season like european football. when people don't play in england, they play in australia. and india plays everywhere all the time, so thats a relief.

and this particular off season has been more 'off' than most... with liverpool (as well as other english clubs) making NO big money moves. rafa benitez is busy trying to buy the best out of the rest even now. maybe they are still recovering from the $40m they spent on torres last season.

the spanish giants, oh ok, giant, barca ( the other giant is having it 'real' slow) bought their set of players for the season and offloaded their most heavy burden (pun intended), ronaldinho,to ac milan.

hell i just hope things heat up pretty soon or i'll be sleeping through the next year...
