soccer champions league Benfica-Chelsea final today

This match will be played this evening and I'm gonna watch it. Will the rich or the poor club win?

Yesterday when I went out in a sidestreet where I live in Amsterdam someone came walking from the opposite direction while I was crossing the street carrying a bag. As he approached he asked me if I smoked and I confirmed. He offered me a package of lucky strike, told me he only took 2 cigarettes and asked if I wanted the package for 2,50 euro's. A package that cost 5,80 euro's that is. So, naturally I asked why he offered it at such a sympathetic price thinking he might have considered to quit. Turns out he opens his bag grabs a lot of tagged identification badges and tells me he is a Benfica footballer (soccer player for Americans) and all he needed was 2 cigarettes to roll a few reefers or joints with marijuana which of course is widely available in our hometown. I will not give away his name but he was young and looked athletic and I could tell he didn't buy it from the taxfree shop at the airport. I kinda liked him instantly!

May the best club win and may it be a sportive event without all the supporters going nuts and aggressive. A lot depends on the referees in this respect. Let's hope with their authority they can create a relaxed sportive atmosphere on the field and make the right decisions. I'll smoke a special cigarette during the break I think...

Not a Chelski fan jim, bet there's a load of 'stoned' one's there though..

join you at kickoff...

I can't imagine any Benfica player wanting a paltry 2.5 Euro's back! surely he would just bin the pack?.....
Chelsea looked stoned first half tonight, half time oranges must have done the trick, well done Chelsea!

oh and it was/is the Europa League, not the Champions league tonight....a HUGE difference

They don't get oranges at half time.

They get dog biscuits. Chase that ball Rover.

In the pub not too many people but a Chelsea fan that paid for a ticket. He didn't go there for his mate broke a leg!!!
We enjoyed the game, whatever happened. A pint, a few stiff drinks and me thinking Durban poison was quite different from Dutch skunk? Did Monsanto really invented the kill switch before Sensimillia ?
Whatever the Champions might be life's about fertility.
Maybe it's just a huge me...
