[Soccer] My Day with AC Milan


Recommended Posts

So Today I went to the Adidas store in Manhattan where they unveiled Milan's home jersey for the year. They had the team there to sign autographs as well :woot: . Everyone who is here in the States was at the signing. I got to shake Gilardino's hand!!!!!!!! :woot: :woot: Unfortunately, they didn't let us take pics WITH the players just of them. The place was PACKED. Got all of them to sign a white Milan away jersey. I plan on framing it :D. Posted just a few pics below. It was a great day and worth the wait. Now I get to go see them play Chelsea at Giants Stadium on Sunday :D .

work it out, it's not that hard (But thats another story :blush: ).

on topic, I never realy got into football. I was more of a rugby league player. But I see how it can be so breathtaking meeting someone who earns ?100,000 per week while you may pay ?50 upwards per week from your wage to see them on the field of play:D:D

Woah! Just one question, what's the actually different in the shirt? lol.

The sponsors name. This year it says Zafira instead of Opel. And also they had to take the scudetto off since Juve won it this year. I personally didn't go for the unveiling but for the autographs lol. And to meet my idol Gilardino :D .

The Milan-Chelsea game at Giants Stadium today ended in a 1-1 tie. Chelsea struck first with Drogba putting one in the back of the net on a partial breakaway. Milan answered with a beautiful curling shot by Rui Costa that just curled in off of the inside of the post. The game overall was kind of sloppy, which was understandable since both teams are rather early in their training. Vieri had a goal that was disallowed on what seemed to be a phantom offisdes. Of course, I'm a bit biased.

we're there a lot of people at the signing? I know not many ppl in the US follow soccer. I know when they came to Toronto though they sold out every game at Skydome

The whole store was packed for the signing, two floors, but the game drew only just over 30,000 unfortunately.

Was Andriy Shevchenko there? I would be glad of getting pictures of Gilardino, Pirlo, Gattuso and Nesta but Shevchenko's the real deal with being 1 of the 3 players nominated for player of the year.

Sheva didn't come to the States. He was doing extra training at Milanello because of the surgery he had on his orbital bone.

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
