Cristiano Ronaldo Crashes Ferrari

The lucky Manchester Utd winger escaped without a scratch after the Italian sportscar was smashed to smithereens in a crash early today.

Witnesses said his car was a "mangled wreck" – and police say it is a write-off.

Ronaldo was travelling through a tunnel at Manchester Airport when he hit the wall – sending parts of the barrier flying across the dual carriageway.

Ronaldo was able to get out of the vehicle himself and was spoken to by police at the scene after the smash at 10.20am.

A witness said: "The front of Ronaldo's car was completely mangled. There was metal all over the road and debris - and we had to dodge our way through it.

“Ronaldo was just standing at the side of the road looking forlorn and bewildered.

Berbatov to Ronaldo....Filthy

Although this play is from Manchester United's game against West Ham United on October 29th it is definitely worth a post. Sit back and watch how nasty Berba gets on the poor West Ham defender and sets Ronaldo up for an easy pass into the back of the of old onion bag.

Will They Stay or Will They Go?

Yesterday two of the biggest questions of the off season in football were answered.


As I'm sure many of you heard either last night or this morning that Brett Favre will be joining the New York Jets after a trade was announced last night.

I'm sure everyone knows the story, how could you not, the Brett Favre saga has been in the headlines everyday for weeks. The Green Bay Packers stuck with their decision to go with Cal product Aaron Rodgers as quarterback next season and reluctantly dealt Favre to the Jets for draft picks.


Now, in other football news that you probably haven't heard, Portuguese superstar winger Cristiano Ronaldo has decided to stay with Manchester United for at least one more year. After leading the Red Devils to a Premier League Title and a UEFA Champions League Title this past season, Ronaldo expressed interest in playing in Spain, for Real Madrid in particular.

Now with both soap operas officially over, we as a sporting community can finally move on. No more speculation and waiting, we have our answers, let's be done with it.
