So long, in fact, that I have completely forgot what we were doing before it started. Something about points and kicking ass (or not, as the case may be)... It will come back to me, I'm sure. Anyway, here we are back to the championship, ... http://inter.theoffside.com/team-news/bologna-v-inter-mortadella-speedbump-on-the-road-to-catalonia.html There is a perceived lack of Italians on this team, even though we have several, who apparently don’t count. Supporters of other teams, who like to find a reason to have a go at us, often use the “no Italians” chant to show their superiority where none might otherwise exist. This ... http://inter.theoffside.com/champions-league/why-foreigners-are-important-to-serie-a.html I understand that being called up to a National Team is an honor. It means that among all the players from your particular country, you are one of the very best at what you do. Great. Good for them. I am proud of our Internationals. Right now, Inter has ... http://inter.theoffside.com/team-news/international-breaks-blow.html And he loves us back. Well, he loves Inter. Well, he is "very happy" at Inter. Whatever. He is staying and that is all that matters. Yep, Julio Cesar Soares de Espindola has signed a contract extension with F.C. Internazionale Milano until June 30, 2014. What a wonderful gift after ... http://inter.theoffside.com/team-news/i-%e2%99%a5-julio-cesar.html Well, we didn’t beat an opponent in the bottom half of the table.

Say what you will about Roma, for some reason they always bring it when they travel to Milan to play Inter. It doesn't really seem to matter their form or where they sit in the table, when they come ... http://inter.theoffside.com/team-news/inter-v-roma-dipende-da-noi.html Ok, so everyone who follows Inter Milan knows that Dejan Stankovic is, well... for lack of a better term, a muppet.

Happy Birthday to Angelo Moratti RIP, Luis Figo and Mourinho's daughter. Alright. Allow me to summarize my reaction to the first 84 minutes of this game: Here we go again.

Oh, we ... http://inter.theoffside.com/team-news/dinamo-1-pazza-inter-2.html Inter are going back to Russia (ok, well Ukraine) to see if we can finally find our footing in Europe. We have not exactly excelled, and our high-flying Serie A position will not count for a hill of beans. It will be cold, and Kiev is a good team, but ... http://inter.theoffside.com/team-news/dynamo-v-inter-one-more-shot-at-redemption.html As I write this, Juve have just fallen to a resurgent Napoli and we have a golden opportunity to go five clear at the top (or more, depending on the Samp result).
