re: So Snopes is Left Leaning Now? - Wario Balotelli
Can someone please provide an example of Snopes' bias? A specific link or article would be helpful. I'm not naive to think it is completely neutral, but if their bias is so obvious a concrete example should be readily available. ...

re: FC Kaiserslautern vs Hoffenheim playoff to be in the Bundesliga 23/27 - Wario Balotelli
I watched a lot of Kaiserslautern a couple of seasons ago for various reasons. I've said here and in other forums that I thought Christian Tiffert was a tremendously underrated player, especially that 2010/2011 season. Since Srdan Lakic moved from K-town, he hasn't scored a goal, a testament to the ...

re: **** Official Summer 2012 Transfer Thread **** - Wario Balotelli
Arsenal have had pretty terrible luck in the past couple of years. They used it all in the invincibles season. They've lost three cup finals each of which was lost near the end of the game. From 07 onwards, they've had good teams. Since 2010, they have been by some measure a better team than Chelsea...

re: Difficulty of 20-30 yd Free Kicks - Wario Balotelli
The two major variables are the GK and the wall. I'd wager that nearly all teams in major leagues could assemble a larger and more athletic wall than any high school team. Also there are very few GKs under 6' in major football. Often they are much larger. The ball must be hit with pace and curve, an...
