The new of the week in the NBA: Allen Iverson finally goes to Denver Nuggets. After spending 11 years with the Philadelphia 76ers, Allen Iverson "The Answer", finally decided to move forward into his career and go to a more competitive team with higher aspirations than the 76ers. He is a legend in Philadelphia, I hope he can continue it in Denver. He will meet there with Carmelo Anthony and Marcus Camby, we'll see how they work together... but it's promising.

I personally love Iverson... is that kind of players that does it nearly all, and does it well, the kind who can stand up a whole crowd, one that makes the ticket's price worth it. I am willing to see him in action when Carmelo returns in later January after his suspenssion.

On the Spanish side... Yesterday I saw Memphis Grizzlies VS New Orleans Hornetts, which the later won in the extra time. Gasol is back, though not at 100%, but he did an awesome game with 28 points (or so) and 10 rebounds (or so, I can't remember and am not willing to look for it). What seems obvious is that Memphis depends on him, and that he needs to move to other team if he wants his career to progress. Boston seems each day the best and most factible option... we'll see.

Well... good luck Iverson, good luck Gasol. This is the NBA... I love this game!

Real Madrid VS F.C. Barcelona: one of the most important sport events in the world, and I just came back from the Santiago Bernabeu stadium.
They're both the two most important teams in Spain, and two of the most important in Europe. The traditional rivalry between the two of them adds the spice to this classical match. As I said, it's probably one of the Top5 most important football (soccer for those of you from US) in the world.
I'm not a Real Madrid supporter nor a F.C. Barcelona one, but it's an awesome spectacle to assist a match like this. I went with a friend of mine, who really is a Real Madrid fan, and think he enjoyed it a lot.
Real Madrid won 2-0 with goals of Raúl and Van Nistelrooy, so one can imagine the party round the stadium after that.

With this I've just rubbed out a line of my things-to-do-before-die list.

Quote of the day: "Most of our lives are a series of images, they pass us by like towns on a highway. But sometimes a moment stuns us as it happens and we know that this instant is more than a fleeting image. We know that this moment, every part of it, will live on forever".
