barcelona = love  

Barcelona v. Lyon



BARCELONA WON!
5-2!

Henry got two goals IN TWO MINUTES. Then Eto'o got one. And then my Leo got one and it was AWESOMESSI. *jumps up and down* And then Keita got one in the LAST FEW SECONDS OF OVERTIME. And now they're in the semi-finals of the Champions League! *Kermit the Frog yayayayay*

Guh, I heart my team so much.

I did miss Puyol, though. Poor sprained ankle. Three weeks out, ah, man. :(

I did not know you were into soccer at all, let alone Barca. Now, I personally don't love soccer, but my husband is such a die hard BFC fan, it rubs off. And Puyol is his favorite :)

It's only happened in the last year or so. I somehow went from never watching sports in my entire life to being addicted to soccer and tennis. Yeah, I'm confused, too.

Barca love! *high-fives you and hubby* There are other teams I love watching, but Barca is the one I heart above all. It's so weird (for me anyway) to love every single person on the team. And, oh, Puyol. He's such a stah. Even if I constantly want to cut his hair. :|

When half the team had the stupid long curly hair (including Pep), I totally blames Puyol. My husband is like a 5 year old when it comes to BFC merchandise. He has around 5 T shirts, slippers, a huge flag, a sweatshirt, a key chain, and probably more stuff I can't remember (or don't know about). The two most expensive clothing items we own are the dress I wore to my brother's wedding, and his official Barca T shirt he bought when we went on the Camp Nao tour :D
And I almost don't hate soccer when it's a Barca game...

AHAHAH YES. And then suddenly one day they walked on the pitch and everyone had gotten hair cuts. Except Puyol. :|

Dude. I'm officially jealous of your husband's loot.

My husband had a long time to gather all the stuff. Also, everyone knows he's a Barca supporter, so anyone who goes there gets him merchandise. Also also, they're huge here, so there's stuff you can get here (like the slippers). Message me your address, and next time I find something cute I'll mail it to you.

I also just realized we have one of those car window dolls, which is in our living room window and can be seen from the street :)

Oh, did you see the game yesterday? We were at a basketball game which sucked, and part way through my husband yelled at the players "Do you realize what I'm missing to watch this?!?!? Start playing". It was hilarious at the time.

So what you're saying is he's easy to shop for. ;D AND OMG YOU'RE TOTALLY ENABLING MY BARCA LOVE AND I ADORE YOU FOR IT. There are not enough CAPSLOCK to sufficiently express my thank yous of gleeeeee. I'll like, owe you my firstborn. :"> :X

There are Barca car window dolls?! OMGSOCUTE. Is the doll one of the players or just nondescript little dude? Hee. I'm trying to picture it. Last time I saw a car doll around here was last week or so and it was a Garfield. So naturally now I'm envisioning Garfield in a Barca uniform alfdasl. ANYWAY!

Nah, haven't seen the game yet. Darn thing doesn't get aired here until the following Friday it originally airs. *pouts* Darn me not having The Soccer Channel. I have to catch 'em on the Spanish version of Fox Sports here. I don't understand 90% of what's being said, but it's 100% better than not seeing 'em at all. ;D

yelled at the players "Do you realize what I'm missing to watch this?!?!? Start playing"

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Oh, man. I'm surprised he went in the first place! Did he at least tape it for when he got home? ;)

It's wicked crazy how amazing he is. I just wanna squish him!

Man U and Liverpool (and Chelsea and AC Milan, etc)! ♥ I'm still trying to warm up to Inter, though I do love watching Ibrahimovic play.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. :P I wish we called it futbol here. It'd be so much easier. And would made more sense than what we DO call football, heh.

No no, it's Barca's year! ;)

It wouldn't surprise me if Liverpool did win this year. They've been on fire lately. Assuming they can keep everyone uninjured until then.

*squeals* Thank you so much for that link, doll! I reallyreally do love teh Leo and he looks so adorable in those pics. Must watch ASAP. :X :X :X
