On Sunday in the eternal city, as the pope prays, as the tourists wander slack-jawed around the Forum, as motorists honk and flash their lights and curse at each other in a dozen different languages, as the beggars beg and the hookers hook and as the teenagers lay upon the Spanish Steps as thousands of [...]

Yesterday in Florence the Viola were mathematically eliminated from advancing in the Champions League when they were defeated 2-1 by Lyon. Our boys have one more CL match left this year, vs. Steaua Bucuresti on the road in a few weeks. If they can avoid a loss, they will at least continue to [...]

Cagliari played pretty well, and their ‘keeper Marchetti was great, but Fiorentina could very well have drawn and potentially even won that match. I believe we are going to look back on this one [...]

This weekend in Cagliari Bob Freshwater and the boys take on the Viola. Cagliari has looked pretty good in recent weeks, despite last weekend’s tough loss to Catania, while the Viola won at home last Sunday in a match that went unwatched in this house due to technical difficulties. Anyway, Fiorentina is probably the [...]

This Sunday in Florence the Viola will take on Atalanta in a critical Series A matchup. Coming off another disappointing match in the Champions League, the team here has a golden opportunity to get their club back on track. With Cristiano Doni and Luca Cigarini both out for Atalanta, this is the perfect [...]
