MAN-FLESH DU JOUR: ROBBIE ROGERS... AGAIN
After much stalking and, er, stealing from other bloggers, we've finally tracked down another shirtless Robbie Rogers photo. It's small, but it is what it is. And 'what it is' is mostly about that curious looking tattoo on his arm. No clue what it says or is. It doesn't appear too be one of those annoying Olympic rings tattoos that every Olympian has or stupid Roman numerals that every footballer has stamped on them. Knowing Rogers, it must be something more sensible. Like say, 'Property of the Dame of Extra Time.'
Morning newsy bits and pieces:
First up, Cheryl Cole was not wearing her wedding ring at the X Factor launch. Previous reasons she's used for not doing so: she's too skinny and it doesn't fit on her finger. No clue what's up now. Don't think we really care at this point but we'll, you know, keep you posted and such. [EDIT: And the next night... Cashley and Cheryl are holding hands.]
Scary stuff happening with the De Rossi family.
Robinho's agent is flapping his lips. He thinks Robinho will be 'sad' if Real don't let him go. That is literally the word he used: sad. He might as well just have thrown 'slave' in there as well.
More transfer stuff: Say bye to Justin Hoyte, Gooners; Julio Baptista's off to Roma; Benny Feilhaber to some team in Denmark; Man City up their bid for Roque Santa Cruz to £15m.
Spain's squad for next week's (Aug 20th) Denmark friendly announced: here. Marchena, Arbeloa, Fabregas are all missing. Man-child Bojan's been added. Denmark's squad here. It'll be the first time we've seen Agger in a Danish kit in a hella long time.
And finally, if Robbie doesn't do it for you, would yet another clip in the endless stream of leftover Spain Euro part-ay-ing do the trick? Do note Sergio's very dorky sitting-down dancing and Xabi looking a tiny bit like your uncle who desperately wants to fit in with 'the kids' but falls a bit short. When will we ever get sick of these? [TY: the clearly on crack -- in a good way! -- ladies at ONTD_FB]

Haha. You and knees.
Pepe's back is very nice.

Yes, I know I'm odd. You should have seen the card my friend (who has very nice knees himself) made me, a little 'guess the knees' quiz. 16 different pairs!!!! Oh I nearly fainted with happiness!!
Agger and Bendtner vs Spain, oh my what a lovely match! Must find live stream!!
And Pepe has a seriously nice back. Those muscles are good enough to lick.
