Ramping Up

By: vin | Comments 5 Comments

Udinese’s 2008-’09 first team will be presented to tifosi tomorrow, August 28th, and to help announce the occasion, the folks at udinese.it (which is usually pretty damn good for a team site) have posted what is arguably the most ill-conceived team picture in the history of professional sports.  Players behind furniture, players on stairs (ala [...]

Why Support Udinese?

By: vin | Comments 56 Comments

Alright. First things first: No, I didn’t get lost on my way to the AS Roma blog. Believe it or not, I’m here on purpose.
At this point, the few who recognize my name might be wondering, “why the hell is a Giallorossi supporter blogging about the Zebrette?”
