However, I will comment that once again Barça has proven to be the superior side.


You didn't watch the game yet you can somehow opine that Barca has "once again proven to be the superior side"? Outstanding analysis there, Sherlock.

And even if you did watch it, you're clearly watching through rose-colored glasses. Today's game was pretty evenly played, but the game in Madrid on Sunday was dominated by Real despite the final score - even many Barcelona bloggers and beat writers admitted such. Look at the stats if you don't believe me. (And yes, I know some Barca players did not play in the first half that day, but the fact that they had 0 shots in the second half is pretty telling as well.)

Know what I did today, brah?
Let me guess, because I was not in the thread "in-game" that would mean that I wouldn't have had access to the game in any way, shape, or form?

You're waffling on your claim.

Yes, I do. Everyone who is a fan does to some degree.

The final score is what matters when all is said and done.

Cecil doesn't care. A team plays poorly for a half, and doesn't lose, what does that say about the other side?

I've seen them, and it's history to me. But let me ask, who possessed the ball more? Who committed more fouls? Who was offsides more? Who took more corners? If anything, the stats would point to an inefficient RM side. The ability to take advantage of your opponents times of weakness is a poor reflection of your teams character.

Sorry, brah, you're ignoring the fact that your team is second. Don't worry though, they may have a better squad next year.

Like I said, there are a few that I respect, but I don't like their team. You may not like my team either, but that's the beauty of any sport.
