The Champions



Yesterday Inter Milan beat a talented Bayern Munich team 2-0 to win the European Champions League title -- a huge deal in the football world, an event watched by hundreds of millions of people. It was the culmination of an amazing season where Inter pulled off a tripletta or treble, winning their domestic league (Serie A), domestic cup (Coppa Italia) and the Champions League. Looking back to when I watched the team in Boston last summer (Diego Milito, the hero last night, also scored the two goals in that game against AC Milan) it's amazing to think of all they have accomplished since. Few things seem to rouse passion like sport and, needless to say, it was a proud day for Interisti everywhere yesterday.

Unfortunately for my husband he's an AC Milan fan. It was not such a proud day for him.

Check out this Nike ad, I thought it was pretty cool:



And now I am munching on bombe calde made with Nutella, one of God's great gifts to mankind, while anxiously awaiting the LOST finale. Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend and we'll talk when it's over!
