Here's the danger, Milan doesn't give a shit about serie A (ala roy williams and north carolina...youtube video of williams with kansas after losing to syracuse in '03 final four...it is march) which means the only thing they do care about is the game tonight, they are without seedorf, but kaka comes back, as well as maldini, inzaghi, and pirlo who all sat out in the draw over the weekend, they are going to play two up front my guess the pipo and the duck, and will look for a 1-0 win, the question is, will arsenal be able to get the away goal? perhaps a 70th minute RvP appearence?? a header that gets knocked down and in by the crossbar? who knows, but i'm confident the match will end in a 1-1 draw, hey milan you can still say no english team will have beaten you at the san siro,Jakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16298733728300862795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7645052288536432642.post-77372967837881890212008-03-04T11:24:00.000-05:002008-03-04T11:24:00.000-05:00I'm excited. This should be awesome. I think Bar...I'm excited. This should be awesome. I think Barca goes through, no discussion necessary. Man U should go through, and we're all surprised when they don't score a boatload, but Juan put the seed of doubt in my head earlier today, so I wouldn't shocked if Lyon took them down (which would be bad news for Arsenal's Premier Chances in my opinion).<BR/><BR/>I'm going to keep on rooting for Turkey, because why not.<BR/><BR/>I think we all think that AC has the edge, but I'm ready for this one to be a classic. I do think AC wins, and I think they win Champs League, but that's just me.Benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07283535888133954764noreply@blogger.com
