Crumb By Crumb.

Everyone reading this must have heard/read of Ruben De la Red collapsing last night. Marca assures he is fine, but the video of him just looks really scary. I mean, whose first thought was not Antonio Puerta? I am extremely glad to hear De la Red just scared the hell out of everyone, as I like him, eventhough he plays in Madrid. I was also very sad when I read of the Greek footballer who took his own life after he found out he wasn´t part of the team. I can´t rememeber his name, but this is a really sad incident indeed. To add a bit more sadness, the boss of Boca Juniors has also perished. Seriously, what is happening?

Yesterday I was ready to teach to you my dear readers every single Finnish swear word there is. Yes, I have cooled down a bit after that, but apparently the Arsenal dressing room was boiling after the game. No wonder, I bet I wasn´t the only one who noticed Wenger throwing his water bottle after Spurs´ first goal. Conviniently, Gallas who got most of the blame on the draw, has now a hamstring injury and will be out tomorrow. Shouting and blaming, but at least they are trying to solve their problems. Or that is what I sincerely hope. The only one who I really feel sorry for is Gael Clichy, who was reported to be in tears after slipping and letting the Spurs to score the 4-3 goal. Dear Clichy, it was a human error, it could have happened to anyone. I understand you feel bad and so do I, but I know you can get over it and be stellar. I have very mixed feelings and i don´t know what to expect to see on Saturday.

More news from the football front. It is now official, David Beckham will be spending some time with AC Milan. Frankly, I couldn´t care less, but Becks is a fine player and someone must be excited. Also, I don´t know what to think now that it looks like Maradona actually gets to coach to Argentina national team. I mean, he coaches Kun Agüero, the father of his yet unborn grandchild. To me that seems a bit, well, unfair in a way.

Managers are the big hit of this week, as Harry "Judas" Redknapp (have a very unsafe trip to the lowest hell) left to Pompey to try to help the team that still hold sthe last place on the Premier League table, Tony Adams was appointed the new Pompey manager. Huge respect for Adams.

In addition to the German national football team saga, the Euro 2012 saga also continues. Now it has been reported that Ukraine is struggling to build the required stadiums. Like it wasn´t enough with the Polish trying to solve their problems that still remain somewhat unsolved. I have a propostion. Should they not get their problems solved in a way that UEFA wants them, couls Finland get to host the Euro? Joint with Sweden or something? Not because I´d want to see our team play, but more because I´d like to see all the good teams play.

One more thing. If you like EPL, here is a survey you might want to participate. I did, as the prizes are pretty sweet.

Other things. I think I am more into red things I have ever realised. I saw an ad for this pretty new Canon Ixus that was bright red and thought how wonderful it would be to have one. And I do think it was just because of the colour, not because the camera would be somehow special. Is there a place where I can do some kind of colour analyzing, to get to know what this fondness of red of mine means.

Today is the All Saints Day and since we do not have Halloween in the US style here, it will just be a day when you can´t do anything because most of the places are closed. I´m thinking of watching a movie or do, it has been a while since I last put The Crow DVD on the player and I haven´t watched Interview with the Vampire for ages either. Too bad The Dark Knight isn´t on DVD yet, it would have been fairly good pick. Or maybe I should let these vampires to rest as I have already been watching True Blood. It´s not as bad as I feared, but based on two episodes it´s hard to say wether it is any good either. But I´m waiting for Alexander Skarsgård to make his first appearance. At least the show is entertaining, to a point. Some parts of it are, well, almost porn. Like I have said, never a prime time show.

It has been raining all day and now the sun is shining. How pretty that looks like. I´m going to end with this happy moment. More to follow. Stay tuned and take care.
