Romanian soccer

It's been a while since I've posted here. A lot of things have happened since, but today's momentous event is that the Romanian soccer team Steaua Bucuresti is playing the infamous Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League. Real Madrid is Beckham, Ronaldo, Canavarro, Raul, Roberto Carlos, Van Nistelrooy, etc... The game is shown by ESPN Deportes and I am going to take an extended lunch break to see it at the Lazy Dog down on Pearl Street at 12:30. This is the first soccer game involving a Romanian team I've watched in a few years.

There is already a rumor on the "internets" that Steaua's owner signed a deal to sell one of the Romanian players to Real Madrid in exchange for the Romanian team losing both of the games. It sounds very ... Romanian already.
