El Titan

Tonight is the last game El Titan aka El Loco aka San Martin, my favorite player Martin Palermo will play in La Bombonera. Where as I will always be a Boca fan, I will miss watching number 9 do his thing.

I wasn't much of a futbol (soccer) fan until I went to Buenos Aires and then I got hooked. There is something about 90 minutes of cheering, singing and watching with baited breath that thrilled me to no end, so much in fact I became a fan. Thanks to the wonders of the internet and a few bars here in NYC, I never miss a Boca match. With that being said, tonight will be bittersweet...

Gracias por todo Martin.
