After
waking up at an ungodly hour to watch the Empoli game, my spirits were nearly
at an all time low having watched such a terrible performance. The weight of
years of douchebaggery just came crashing down on me with the injuries, suspensions
and poor play from that match just the punctuation mark. The only plausible
comparison I could conjure for where Milan is headed was a train wreck. But I’m
not jumping off of this train anytime soon. It may hurt, and we may see the
inevitable doom, but it’s still my Milan and I’m going to see it through.

My
fellow sleep deprived Milanista this time was Pete. You will
remember him from other great podcasts as well as his DAI DAI DAI blog. Or you may
know him from his wise and witty comments on Twitter. Despite
both being tired and despondent about Milan, we had some excellent and
enlightening conversation:
• News of the Week: Galliani douchebaggery, Berlusconi xenophobia,
Mastour’s surgery, Paletta’s hair
• Season to Date: results from Serie A
• Squad Analysis: how bad is it?
• The Berlusconi Conundrum: Will he sell? What’s in it for him? And
more…
• Coming Up: Upcoming matches and what to look for
• Happy Birthday: milestones of the Milan Obsession blog, podcast,
and more
My
thanks again to Pete for excellent conversation despite his sleep
deprived state. Check out his fantastic blog at pdacquaviva.com and definitely follow him on
Twitter, too.
Our next match is
Milan vs. Cesena
