The article is posted here.
Below is an excerpt from the article.

Fireman Ed Should Pour a Stiff Drink
Rex Ryan may be the king of the F-bombs, but he better use as many as he can during the regular season. The Jets won’t be making the playoffs.

 The World Cup starts in less than 48 hours. As usual, Azzurri fans will be wringing their hands, having hushed conversations about Italy’s chances and sweating the team’s poor form leading up to the tournament.

 And so the excuses begin…
In his selection of the most offensively challenged Azzurri in decades or maybe ever, Marcello Lippi has began reciting excuses. Today’s loss to a more conditioned and much more prepared Mexican side poses the question: What the hell have the Azzurri been doing for the past 2 weeks?
Criticism of a World [...]

 It’s a topic we all love discussing, and we all have different opinions about. Some of us would rather see a pure poacher in the lineup while others believe that target men are the most effective and still more believe that a striker who plays well with the ball at his feet is essential.
