Yeah, mine’s from fb.

I’m sorry Manu, but you’re wrong on this one, Woods a sportsman? Maybe if he carried his own golf clubs around. A F1 driver is 10 times more of an athlete and than golf player.

What’s fun for me is that the woman right behind them? The one with only her eyes showing? Is my best friend from high school.

Lauri, that’s thing # 2 that I love from this picture.

Thing # 1 is that Tiger looks ecstatic to be having his picture taken with Manu and Frenchie. Whereas they just seem to be smiling for the camera — business as usual.

TP more of an icon than Thierre Henry in France? (They’re good friends, btw.)

Can we get a ruling from our Argentine contigent on the relative icon levels of Messi and Manu.

I mean . . .

WHO IS MORE GRATER MESSI OR MANU? I KNOW THEY ARE BOTH TEH GREATEST AND NEVER GET TEH RESPECT THEY DESERVE, BUT WHO IS REALLY THE BIGGEST ICON???

I still have a soft place in my heart for Yahoo! BabelFish. Which yielded a similar, if slightly different translation:

WHICH OF OUR SPORTS HEROES IS BEST BETWEEN MANU AND MESSI? FANGIO IS BESTOFCOURSE AND SO IS DEL POTRO BUT I AM WONDERING ABOUT ICON STATUS??? FROM THAT I ASK YOU TO CHOOSE ONE MESSIOR MANU!

Right now people don’t like Messi all that much. He’s been sucking when playing for the national team.

Isn’t the coach the biggest problem?

by 4Him on Oct 15, 2009 1:21 AM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

The coach doesn’t help, but the players aren’t helping. Messi particularly is playing well beneath his Barcelona level. He’s been useless for many, many games.

I used “help” twice. Grammar fail.
