They don't show ads out here on ESPN. You get these fun trivia pieces (mostly about cricket) and every know and then a short highlights clip... Barcelona figured prominently in the latest segment, so I'll stick with them.

Bayern are my boys. I hate this draw, but CCFC will stand by the Germans and select the boys from Bavaria. Scary to think Barca is better without Ronny D. What the hell?

Real Marin said...

The Germans' 12-1 thumping of Sporting was mighty impressive, but we'll take Barca's big three over Bayern's any day. Barca to the semis!

Barca, Barca, BARCA!!!

(that was for jeff)

Ribery and Co. looked pretty impressive in the last round, but I have a feeling this round will be a little Messi for them.

Barcelona.

Nicely done C & B. You should petition for "contributor" status with that wordplay.

Stick to my guns and stay with Barcelona (though BM is fun to play with on FIFA 09).

The Claret and Blue said...

By the way, anybody catch this highlight?

Sorry, Jerver. I know firsthand the pain of seeing your team dismantled in highlights, but I couldn't resist.

If that doesn't work, search for Grafite amazing goal. Worth the trouble in finding it, I promise.

holy crap, C&B... that Grafite goal is friggin off the hook. love how he finishes with a back heel. i hope that's taken all the wind out of Bayern's sails for the Barca tie.

Wow. Messi vs Ribery. Toni vs Eto'o.
Henry vs Schweiny.

A very tasy matchup.

But Barcelona are fabulous and will will.
