Everyone is beginning to realise Cech isn't actually that great. About time.

And no, I don't know why I started talking about books, either (see: last post of last page).

I like Crouch, I had a flick through his autobiography once which is called, fittingly, Walking Tall. He says nice things about Villa, makes knowing comments towards his looks being for an er, 'acquired taste' and generally seems a happy boy who's grateful for his lovely life. I'd rank it just below the literary treasure that is Totally Frank, the moving story of Francis Lampard, Jnr., and the defiant, tough as nails My Defense by Cashley Cole. All jesting aside, I don't like football autobiographies, even if they're characters from the days when football was played professionally by chronic alcoholics and fat, sideburn clad smokers. In fact, they're worse because they're always so depressing, which makes for an honest read, but one that's hard on the stomach. Paul McGrath's book is a good example. I love the guy and appreciate the candidness he brings but to read account after account of his woes is bordering on torture.

Fight Club?

I slept with Winona Ryder once.

Models on the cover of US Vogue, surely some mistake? Bring back LeBron James and Jennifer Aniston immediately!

I don't understand this from a publicity perspective at all. Cassie's key attribute is she's hot. Her voice, her 'sound', no definition to them at all. Way to ruin the best thing you've got going for you.

Haha, wow, I suck.

There's a Vanity Fair spread with the Inglorious Basterds cast in the Gisele covered issue. DK as Bridget von Hammersmark

From that vantage point the guy looks a bit like Christian Slater, but it won't actually be him. Beyond that, no idea. Another clue?

Timberlake looks like a ShadowScene hipster. NOT THAT NERD FROM N*SYNC

I'll be needing a clue about now, please.

What's the Chinese one with the pig heads? I'm serious, does anyone know the one I mean?

Good for Porto, great for "football in general". Nice to see Man Utd concede a late goal for a change, usually they manage to sneak in a few during the obligatory six minutes of added time they get when things aren't going so well.

Correct!

Halcyon days, an infinitely more interesting time with a superior batch of top models leading the line.

astronomer, you should be more proud of Canada's footballing heritage. I was a witness to the Rogers Sports coverage of the last World Cup and was in awe of the articulate punditry of former Ipswich Town goalkeeper Craig Forrest. They may always struggle at playing the game well, but Canada to me is the world champion of rational, thoughtful football commentary.

I like her but some of these shoots are either bad (the beach one) or they're just too same ol' same ol'. I mean Vanity Fair and GQ shoot actresses virtually the same every time, its so boring.
