Inter Milan: 3/6/08 “Creative Exercise”

By: robert | March 6th, 2008

What’s up my dawgs? Inter fans take a lot of shit on this site for having too many Argentine players, and the nickname AgrenInter has been given to us. It was funny the 1st and 37th time, but it’s getting a little old. So, I’m giving everyone the opportunity to get a new, fresh start. Anyone, even Inter fans, will have the opportunity to give Inter a new nickname. Keep it tasteful, assholes. Don’t come here, and start saying stupid shit. This isn’t anything serious, just a little fun. Actually, you should be thanking me for doing this. First, I’m giving you a chance to take away that dumb ass, overused, nickname. Secondly, those of you who are collecting Social Security, this should keep you on your toes, and hopefully keep you off the road for a while. (Am I allowed to say that?) If your going to make fun of the greatest team, at least do it right. (I have to give thanks to Marco, from the Livorno/Roma page. He was the one who brought this idea to my attention. Thanks.) In other news, ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME???? A four year-old was taken home from school, not for faking to be sick, but for being DRUNK. I’ll give you a second to read that over again. Okay, can I move on? I don’t have kids, but I bet some of you do. How did this kid get drinks??? The only thing I could think of is, the drunk parents had some leftovers. Parents like that should be locked up. Damn idiots. Shit like this make me sick to my stomach. Here’s your daily fix. (Or drunken 4 year-old, which the Social Services should take away.)

—-> This is weird. Our neighbors owner, Silvio Berlusconi wants us to win. “Certainly Inter.” He said his mother was Moratti’s sex slave secretary, and he’s good friends with Moratti. That’s a great thing to say after you just got knocked out of the CL, and all your fans are pissed at you. Keep up the good work.

—-> YESSSSS!!!!!! He may be back!!! “It’s not certain that Figo will retire. I will certainly make him an offer to continue next season.” There it is, right there, directly from Moratti’s mouth. This was is in a post a while back, but I didn’t think anything of it. Now, it may be the real deal. It’s still up to Figo if he wants to retire or not, but it’s good to know he’ll have the option of coming back. Even if it’s just for a year. After coming back from injury, (I’m still plotting Pavel’s assassination) he has been in surprisingly great form. I’m not ready to let him go.

—-> Eric Cantona could of been in the black and blue!?!?!? “I was about to sign him. He was at Manchester United and he had just been banned for kicking a fan.” He was a terrific player, and as mentioned in that article, him and Ince would of been the new bash brothers. Instead, he stayed at Old Trafford and had himself a very successful career. This hurt a little, but the past is the past.

—-> More Fatty news. He scored a few goals for Sao Paulo in the Copa Libertadores against Chilean side Audax last night, so he thinks he’s back in every one’s good graces. “What was going through my head? I only needed a little more tranquility.” Give me a fucking break. This guy has been catered to his whole career, enough is enough. I’ve just about given up on him, but not yet. I want to see him scoring goals at the San Siro again, but I don’t think that will ever happen.

—-> Moratti hates Uventus more than Milan. “For me the real derby is with them: it is the derby d’Italia and it comes first to Milan.” Personally, I think our “new” rivals are Roma. But maybe that’s because, here on theoffsides, the bad blood we spill we every time we play. Shit, even when we’re not playing eachother death threats are thrown around more freely than Ronaldinho’s name at goal.com .

—-> Good news, another Ibra will be running around. His wife gave birth to the couple’s second son Thursday at University Hospital in southern Sweden. I doubt it, but his recent “so-so” form may have been because of this. It’s nice to hear that everything went well, and Ibra can just focus on his calcio. Vincent is his name, calcio will be his game.

—-> This guy basically sums up why I LOVE Cassano. A crazy dude, in a crazy world. It just fits.

—-> Crespo, ‘Time to climb.’ I agree with him, it will be liking climbing Everest, but we can do it. I really, truly, fully believe we can. FORZA RAGAZZI!!!!!

—-> It’s all systems go. It has been confirmed, Ibra and TSB WILL be ready for Reggina. Only expect them to play about 45 minutes, but don’t worry, you’ll get to see a full 90 from these two verses Liverpool.

—-> Manico is our Herrera . For those of you who don’t know, Herrera was at the helm during the Nerazzurri’s best years. He lead them to three Scudetti and back-to-back European Cup victories in the 1960s. “Mancini is smoothing out the rough edges and can remain at Inter for a long time. He came to this club to be a protagonist like Herrera.” Easy Moratti, don’t set the bar too high. He’s good, but not that good. Yet.

—-> Will definitely be picking this up. The centenary almanac will be available at most bookshops on March 19th. Inter 100 anni di emozioni: One hundred years of great emotions, love, pain, rage, euphoria, passion… splendidly illustrated in the pages of the official celebratory volume.” Yah, I have to have that.

—-> Here’s the training info for today. TSB had a FULL day training with the squad.

—-> The Moratti interview at today’s presentation of, Inter 100 anni di emozioni.

I’ll have the match preview for the game against Reggina up tomorrow.

So till’ I see ya’, see ya’.

    CSD, i am absolutely certain that inter is going to get through the round. i would bet my first born child on it but i dont think that my future wife will be too pleased if i lose. bank on burdisso breaking that diving blonde’s legs and for maicon to cause havoc all day long down the right flank. oh and also, our 15 goals that our prez promised will look something like this, Zlatan x 14 and Crespo x 1.

    and robert… thats not the only thing you have to pick up. you have to get the anni watch as well!!! that thing is pimp’n.

    drum roll please………. and the new inter nickname should be, INTER! god damn, am so orginal! (this obviously means that i have no ideas for a new nickname, sorry robert) and i agree with you robert, am actually fed up with the argeninter thing too.

    You know how I feel about Cassano, but… I love that one of the things he was fined for was “taking his shirt off with contempt.”

    CSD- Outer? I said this was a Creative Exercise.

    kirby- Yeah, that Inter watch looked great!!!

    David- I’m sorry if that offended you. I’m Jewish, so I thought it was just a funny harmless joke. No anti-semitism (sp?) meant at ALL. (Considering I’m Jeish :) ) Again, if I offended you, I’m sorry.

    i dont think figo playing on another year will be good for us in the long run. he should end his career on a high, especially as we are going to win the treble this year. we should just go pick up ricardo quaresma now before any other side in europe decides to or before his price sky rockets even more than it is already. what do you guys think?

    and johonna getting fined for “taking your shirt off with contempt” is the new way we do things around here. lol

    so if anyone is stupid were gonna tell them they’re stupid. when they ask why they were insulted the explanation we’re gonna give is “because you took your shirt off with contempt”. rofl

    David- I have change the name to Uventus. :)

    Again, I’m sorry about that.

    kirby- Haha, “because you took your shirt off with contempt. Love it.

    As for Figo, in my mid, I know the best thing woud be to pick up ricky before anyone else does, but deep inside, I don’t want to let Figo go yet. It’s a very hard decision for me.

    I love Figo. There, I said it. I dont care if he is old and doesnt play up to the same standards he used to. I love him. I want him to play play PLAY! Of course, that doesnt mean we cant have Quaresma too, does it? If we have them both next year, Figo and really whip him into shape!

    And I hope that Mancini is like Herrara. Viva ancora La Grande Inter! Only time will tell.

    Oh, and I think Berlusconi has had more plastic surgery. Either that or he is way into botox. When he was shaking the players hands before that last Milan CL game, he looked like he was wearing a plastic mask. Of course, Moratti is no looker either.

    Haha, Moratti looks like he’s on crack. His faced is always “spread” out and eyes WIDE open. Who cares, he’s rich.

    it would be nice to have them both come next year but i dont think that mancini and moratti will buy him if figo is still on the cards.

    johonna, i know why you love figo. there was only ever one reason for that. its because “he too his shirt off with contempt” isnt it?!

    I introduced myself to the Roma community by referring to Inter as “The Bruise.” You are black & blue, after all.

    I still stand by that one, even though “Inter Plate” was my fave. >=)

    If anyone is Jewish, it’s Chelsea. Or Liverpool. Juventus has always been ITALIAN and EUROPEAN…not Brazilian or Argentinan. (roma..inter..milan)

    You guys can drop the ArgenInter nickname as soon as you get..say..I don’t know, 2 Italians in the Starting XI? Or less than 5 Argentinans? If the boot fits…

    If you don’t like the nickname you should just ignore it, like all Juve fans ignore “Gobbi” and other false names like that.

    wow, 2 Italians….. That seems like a lot…. How about a couple Portugese, and maybe a Spaniard? Will that do? =0)

    Hey, if you saw the last blog, at least those Argentinians know how to grill!

    Really, I just got back from a killer wine/food night and not even haters can get me down.

    I dont know if this is an especially “Inter” topic, but as Figo had his leg broken by a dangerous tackle, it sort of follows.

    The tag for the article is:

    “FIFA president Sepp Blatter on Friday called for lifetime bans and criminal charges to be brought against players found guilty of dangerous tackles.”

    http://www.daily-calcio.com/index.php?option=news&task=viewarticle&sid=14550&PHPSESSID=e8a9ab5bd5484d7f6a7900290fa6204d

    I wonder what the Offsides community thinks of this. Maybe I am naive, but I dont believe that players go out to intentionally hurt other players. But then, I am a spectator of the sport, not a player. Am I wrong? Was Nedved clumsy or a criminal when he broke Figo’s leg? How about Martin Taylor and Eduardo?

    Stranierazzurri! but thats all fun and games.

    I have seen many great Italians go through this club & I am sure there will be many more. I have loved this team for a long time and will continue to do so despite who their players are. The current set of Stranieri are doing just fine. Really do not care about how other people say Inter are not a real Italian club. That little 3 coloured shield that is currently present on their shirt begs to differ ;)

    Like Johonna mentioned, I also like to refer to them as La Beneamatta or Il Biscione!!

    Forza Inter!!

    “FIFA president Sepp Blatter on Friday called for lifetime bans and criminal charges to be brought against players found guilty of dangerous tackles.”

    blatter is retarded. that is a bunch of rubbish if you ask me. nedved was clumsy in his tackle. and so was taylor’s. if something like this is passed we could expect to see alot of unskilled players playing at the top level. ie because all the skilled one’s would have gotten sent to jail for taking their shirt of with contempt.

    La Beneamatta is a nice one. i say we go with that.

    oh and also i heart christian Chivu after i read his interview today.
