Okay, here's the official list on guys who're being loaned temporarily (from acmilan.com):



My fins twitch unpleasantly at the thought of seeing Brocchi in a Milan jersey again.

Delvecchio is ex of Samp and currently playing at Catania
Terzi is a defender from Siena
Blasi is a midfielder who played last year at Napoli

Go Brocchi go!

+1 with X-Off.

You are a meaniehead pirate, Jack! I might have to take revenge by posting...something naughty.

Brocchi owns Nesta's @ss!!!! Do your worst!!

Well, I would post the photos of Pirlo in a speedo or of him and Flamini blowing....kisses, but some things just should not be seen.

Anyway, DC United's website shows...glaring errors in their latest preview of the game. Misspellings of names (Nesta is not a difficult name to spell), saying that Brocchi is returning from a loan to Lazio, insisting that Pippo will wear the armband, etc. I am an amused fish.

Well. It seems DC United's website was right. Ambro isn't going on the tour, and neither are Kaladze and Roma. Pippo is next in line in terms of seniority so he will wear the armband.

Here's the call up list:

Favalli? Ain't he had enough yet? And I friggin' hate Delvecchio.

Hey, let Favster have a week's holiday in the US.

As for Delvecchio, he gets a cookie for that nice goal he scored for samp on matchday 1 of last year (in which they drew with inert). For anything else...meh.

My person's friends are asking about who Blasi is and the only thing my person can come up with is 'played for a zillion clubs, posed for the Dolce & Gabbana underwear ad in 2006'.

Wait, Marco Delvecchio? Since when did he play for Milan. Am I missing something huge here?

Nah, Danny. A bunch of guys from other clubs are being loaned to Milan for the tour -- it's traditional practice for clubs on these postseason tours to borrow guys for the tours -- and absolutely not on a permanent basis.

My person is going to be squealing for WEEKS. Guess who she just met, joked with, and got an autograph from?

I am moving out of the house for the interim. Anyone got a spare fishbowl?

Spill it already...

Oddo?

Well, she met Pato, Favalli, Flamini, etc etc too but the only one who makes her squeal is Nesta.

It's going to be a long night.

Can Nesta speak English? (Or do you speak Italian?)

My person speaks some Italian. At least enough to say 'Excuse me. I don't speak Italian well, but could I please ask for an autograph?' in Italian and understand the jokes back and forth. She'd brought down a copy of Forza Milan magazine - the one with team photos in it. It was a source of great amusement. Nesta was a really nice guy, Favalli actually seemed SHY (which surprised my person as she was the one who was terrified), Delvecchio was funny (those three were hanging in a group). Antonini was chilling with a group of other hotel guests. Pato was hanging out with Flamini, whose ear was plastered to a cellphone (he was speaking in English). Didn't see Seedorf, Dinho or any of the goalkeepers.

Awesome!!! Can't wait for Sunday!

Oh damn...I should have just asked you to give a big kiss to Favalli for me.

EDIT : Wrong topic ...

Hey, can someone with permissions start the match thread for DC United-Milan?

Doesn't your person have the permission for that?

There you are with your gayest comment yet!!

EDIT: @ Fishdoll: I can do it. wait a minute.

Yeah, but she's bad luck. We lose games when she opens threads.

Here are photos from the VIP reception last night: link

And some video interviews:

90 Seconds With Seedorf

90 Seconds with Pippo

90 Seconds with Ronaldinho

And photos from training: link even though they got a bunch of the names wrong

Ha! You don't even wanna know what I'd have said if she'd met Pirlo.

Oh please don't, I like that guy!

I've had a love affair with him ever since I joined this forum..so you my friend should stay out of my private life.
