A Soccer (football) Taxonomy- for now

I think that the title explains it all. If you do not know what a taxonomy is, then read on.

AC Milan- Il Club Piu Titolato al Mondo
Brazil- the proud winners of five World Cups (could also stand for Brazilians)
Cockiness (as in Cristiano Ronaldo.... which could also stand for "C")
Derby- Old Firm, Derby Della Madonnina, Superclasico... take your pick
England- worth mentioning in any football taxonomy...
Fourth Official (could also stand for... gasp... "fifth official!")
Goal.com- my favorite, and only, source for anything soccer
Hugs
I
January (and December actually)- that stupid month that revives rumors you thought were dead... scary times
Kaka'- simply the best there is



L
MLS- (Major League Soccer)-like the pasture for old horses... but for footballers
Nicknames- The Toon Army, La Grande Inter, Seleçao, Rossoneri, or the Blues...
Obsessiveness- nobody could describe it like Nick Hornby in Fever Pitch... just read it
Penalty Kick- free goals... or, at the end of a game, torture
Q
Ronaldinho (could also stand for Robinho, Rivaldo, Reginaldo, or Ronaldo!)
Soccer- what we call football to confuse the rest of the world (could also stand for Shevchenko, who was confused by our use of the word soccer)



Transfer Deadline (that wonderful time when Kaka' rumors cease)
UEFA (or, if I wanted to push it, UEFA cup/ UEFA Champions League)
Van (as in van Bronkhorst, van der Vaart, van der Sar, van Persie, van Basten and van Nistelrooy)
WAGs- (Wives and Girlfriends, normally of the England national team)... Posh, Cheryl, and Colleen
X
Yellow Card






Zenit St. Petersburg (could also stand for Zambrotta, Gianluca)

Random: My Favorite Soccer Players

I have decided to, once and for all, make a list of my top favorite soccer players. I have made an even harder decision, by putting this list IN ORDER. Don't ask me how I made these tough decisions... I don't know myself...

1. Alexandre Pato- This is an easy one. Maybe the only easy one.
2. Kaka'- Maybe this one was easy too.
3. Theo Walcott- the only native English speaker. Unfortunately, I hate his team. (Arsenal)
4. Bastian Schweinsteiger- love his name!
5. Andriy Schevchenko- I liked him more before... when he wasn't Pato's competition.
6. Roman Pavlyuchenko- I like him more when he DIDN'T play for Tottenham!
7. Paolo Maldini- what's not to like?
8. Gennaro Gattuso- His eyes are like.... CRAZY!
9. Iker Casillas- he's just so GOOD!
10. Fernando Torres- What's not to like? (But this time I know there are things to dislike).
11. Marco Boriello- I like him A LOT more, now that he plays for Milan (because before I kind of DESPISED him).

That will do for now.
