For those of you not on the loop, my paying-the-bills-job is in art direction. So I decided to post some favorite football logos I find and share the goodness with you. Today’s visual goodness is Sweden’s IFK Götenborg. I do like the medieval flair.

Today the world was introduced to the group stages fo the Champions League. However another life changing event (not!) took place in Monaco today. UEFA gave out glory and shinny prizes to the best guys on pitch last season. Beau C. Ronaldo received the award of best player. Petr Čech mantained his crown up and [...]

Today UEFA announced who will play who in the group stages of the Champions League. The draw was pretty fair and no real death groups popped. Maybe group D? Start your predictions! (list after the jump)

I think it does. Today I read a nice article from BBC writer Tim Vickery. Here is a small excerpt.
If defeat presents an opportunity to reflect and learn, then last week could have been very significant in Brazilian football.

Dear Argentina,
you don’t even know, but you just did a major favor to Brazil. [...]

Ronaldinho who? I didn’t get to see Pele play. Instead I saw Marta and Cristiane. Today I watched one of the most beautiful football matches of my life. On the pitch were the women’s teams of Brazil and Germany playing for a spot on the Olympic games final. Brazil had never won a single official match [...]

It was a happy day for us Brazilians. 8 years ago, during the Sydney Olympics, Brazil went home earlier because of a loss to Cameroon. Today was payback time! In a tense match, Brazil was only able to score during overtime, with Rafael Sobis and Marcelo, sending all the Cameroonian attitude home. But all the [...]
