A heart attack at 31? That's just insane. Is this a common problem among Latino men? I mean, Antonio Puerta wasn't even thirty when he died.

I agree, somebody should do something. It's crazy that nobody can stop people dying yet, WTF are medical scientists doing exactly!?

On a serious note, very sad news. This shouldn't be happening. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Sports Personality of the Year was won by Ryan Giggs.

I actually thought this was usually given to quite a deserving person. No offense to Giggs, I like him, but he started 12 games for United in the league last season and beats out World Champions like Jenson Button and David Haye? How fucking stupid. Lifetime achievment, sure, he's one of the most decorated players ever, but this is stupid!

I should just be thankful that Andy Murray didn't get it I suppose.

I just posted the NY Times version of the story in the world cup thread since Cabanas is a big part of Paraguay's team.

Terribly, terribly sad. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Tommy Mooney was on Soccer AM this morning talking about his brief stay in Spain. He scored and smashed his nose in the process so had to go off and in the time he was off the opposition scored. When he came back on he asked the ref why his goal was disallowed and the ref said "You English, all you do is foul", then when he said something back to the ref he was sent off!

I can see why very few of our players ever go abroad if that's their treatment!

Now that's the catch ainnit?

I don't think your friend Mooney said something along the lines of , 'Oh I beg your pardon good sir, but I must insist you take that last statement back!'. In fact he probably went along the lines of what his surname seems to suggest.

Perhaps they don't go abroad because they aren't good enough? Saying they don't go because of the treatment one player received in one game doesn't necessarily mean anything IMO.
