Real Madrid aren't that great.

Luis Figo has recently told Cristiano Ronaldo that it would be wise to make a move to Real Madrid this summer. He argues to his former Portuguese teammate that this is the logical next step in his career, implying that Manchester United is a lower club. Everybody in the football world seems to be buying into this as well. Lame.

Figo: Ronaldo should quit United to join Real

Many people, including Figo, argue that Real is the greatest club in the world and football history. And I will admit that they do have 9 Champions League titles (the most of any team) and have won their domestic league 31 times, but things change with time. 10 to 15 years ago, it could be argued that Germany was the superior footballing nation. The Bundesliga was the best league to play in, their teams were doing amazing in interEuro competitions and their national team was a tournament powerhouse. Fast forward to now, the Bundesliga is ranked as the 4th-5th best league in the world, they've had no European silverware in a decade (by club or nation). Even worse, besided Bayern Munich, a majority of the former famous clubs have diminished while new clubs, like Hoffenheim, are on the rise. Meanwhile in Spain, Real Madrid are in second place, with Barca kicking ass. They are no longer the richest football club in the world, Manchester United are. And worse, they are currently losing to Liverpool in the CL...how pathetic.

If C.Ronaldo has a brain, he'll stay. If Real win any silverware this year, I'll delete this post.

Dutch rap is catchy.

Lent

For 40 days and 40 nights I must endure:

-no carbonated beverages
-no cigarettes
-no alcohol
-no fast food
-no meat on Fridays
-only 2 meals a day

This is going to be hard.

Here's a cool video. I want a Pharell-Robot mask.
