CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL: AIG DEFEATS SAMSUNG
Just got done watching the shootout to determine the winner of the Champions League, and it turns out that deciding a championship on free kicks (it can't be "penalty kicks" because being tied is not a penalty) is a lame-ass way to determine to wins a soccer game. Anyway, there was a team wearing red jerseys with "AIG" on them, and they beat a team wearing blue jerseys with "Samsung" written on them. This whole spectacle, which had nothing to do with soccer, was like having the Spurs and Lakers take part in a free throw contest to determine who wins the Western Conference in the NBA. Shootouts suck! They suck in soccer, they suck in hockey, they suck everywhere. Tip: When you get to overtime, play the damn sport you played during regulation time. Is that so difficult to grasp? Sheesh.
