Reggina – Bologna and The Totti – Campagnolo AFFAIR

By: Ben | December 3rd, 2008

Bologna travel to Reggio Calabria this weekend to take on fellow relegation candidates Reggina Calcio. The goal custodian, a certain Andrea Campagnolo (pictured above alongside Francesco Totti, in the heat of molestation) has sent the great Er Pupone into a seizure of rage; the result of Campagnolo’s infuriating denial of the Roman from the penalty spot and consequently denying him the pleasure of sucking his sausage thumb (click above photo). There is no doubt that many women and men have willingly bent to the wills of Totti, yet Campagnolo was after a relationship and not the fleeting passions of a goal.

Following the above mentioned events Andrea recorded a video letter in attempts to cajole the heart of the male cagole, which appeared on PM(Pimp Maladroit) Silvio Berlusconi’s Mediaset television show Striscia la Notizia.

The national treasure’s heart may still belong to Ilary Blasi, yet the smooth operations of Reggina’s Don Juan and his buttered siren song that apparently renders strikers useless in front of the goal mouth, simmered the wantonness in Francesco’s heart. A hypothesis proved wrong by the small fact that Reggina leads the league in goals allowed with 28. Still the mystery remains between the two: was it love, or is it love? The human heart is truly a puzzle.

That being said, Reggina Calcio’s logo is quite possibly the most poorly designed logo in the Serie A, an eyesore if you will. A football with three trajectory lines trailing meets the hole of the “R” (the presentation of the flowered idea must have been captivating). Most people would think the large “R” stands for Reggina yet you would be wrong in thinking so, for “Reggina” is clearly written in white lettering behind the ball. No, the dominant “R” stands for “rotto” as in “rotto il cazzo”. I’ve supplied the logo below for those of you not familiar with it, yet the football has been replaced with an elephant turd.

On the topic of the Calabria – Emilia Romagna encounter, Reggina rolled over to a 4-0 loss against Juventus and Bologna picked up their fourth 1-1 draw under Mihajlovic last week. Both are crazed for points and both know that this weekend is the best opportunity to get them, yet there is one crucial detail; this Sunday the man below will finally start from minute one or rather “dal ‘1″.

    I vote for Napoli’s logo being the worst. I was always surprised that Netscape didn’t sue for copyright infringement.

    Ha Ben! You must be a part time comedian! You must be.

    Not that it matters, but I called Bologna’s draw last week. I forsee another one coming this weekend. Congrats on cesar. That monster Di Vaio should get another goal.

    I think that Napoli’s logo is quite nice, although a stolen idea, but rather cool looking. TInstead, that best on Genoa’s logo is quite hidious.

    All I can say about A.Cesar is better you than us.

    I just never understood what Mancio (and now Mihajlovic) saw in him.

    I suppose he was cheap, though.

    Johonna, Napoli’s badge pre-dates Netscape by several decades.

    Take a look here: http://www.riccardocassero.it/icolori.htm#1

    Perhaps DeLaurentis should be suing AOL?
