Only NES I'm in is Sheep's atm, but if people didn't catch my message there, I'll be out of the country until January 28, without Internet most likely.

To: South Africa From: Angola We would be glad to join you in a trade pact. As for the issue of Mugabe and Zimbabwe, we stand with you in denouncing the human rights violations that his regime has committed, but are not yet in a position to take further action.

Sheep convinced me to come out of my semi-retirement from NESing and play, so I'll take Angola. I'll be out of the country until 1/28, but Sheep and I have an arragement set up. I'm leaving in 18 hours, but if anyone wants to do some quick diplomacy, I'd be more than happy to.

Who would fund it?

Anyone get FM2006? I think its pretty good. The team-talk feature seems a little weird to me, but I really like the new training system. I think it can be a little bit erratic but its good. Currently topping Serie B as Torino in my first season. ;)

The MLS-Fulham game was extremely lop-sided, Fulham was easily outclassed, and I think part of it was because they weren't taking it very seriously, it was just another pre-season friendly for them. If we can't get small clubs to take it seriously, then how will we improve it?

I'm actually quite interested in Livorno now, I like how Lucarelli isn't a mercenary like so many other mercenaries. I actually read something about how he paid out of his own salary to release two or three busloads of Livorno ultras after they were detained after a game against Lazio in Rome...

I hope Standard are champions since they have Onyewu. :) On another note, my two favorite E. European teams (Red Star and CSKA Moscow) were eliminated from the UEFA Cup today. :(

Go for it jameson. :)

Cool. :) This one shouldn't be too hard. Name the famous (or infamous as some people think) longtime president of Atlético Madrid, who was known for his temper and his somewhat shady dealings who just passed away fairly recently.

I think its a pretty good idea. Mexico I know has clubs playing in the Copa Libertadores and Copa Sudamericana, and DC United recently played in the Copa Sudamericana and did fairly well (they lost out on away goals or some minimal margin to the semi-finalists, Universidad Católica). Also...

Wolves? (10 char)
