Atalanta 1-0 Siena

By: Marco | Comments 1 Comment

Unlike Milan & Palermo who failed to win on opening day Atalanta gained three points against Siena. Padoin hit the back of the net winning the match early on the 15 minute mark. Next we play Bologna who looked like their old self against Milan and will have some momentum against us. It will be [...]

The club, along with former player, Gian Paolo Bellini, was charged with allegedly fixing the last two matches of the season. Both Bellini and the club were cleared of all charges by the FIGC [...]

So a friend of mine showed me a video on youtube of Scherzi a parte, one of the greatest shows ever, with none other than Vieri on it. Since I don’t know how to embed videos on this blog I will just post the link. No its not a rick roll, I would have devised [...]

Cabana Chat err….Copa chat

We open up against Siena on the [...]

Cooking lessons with Marco

Just a quick note of advice to everyone. Insalata caprese + Shrimp caprese + Baklava = serious business in my stomach. I have never been so full but if I had to eat it all over again I would. I know what your thinking; wtf is Baklava? Baklava is a pastry from Turkey & Iran [...]

Well that wasn’t bad after all

By: Marco | Comments 1 Comment

Started my first day of college and well like the title says it wasn’t that bad. Of course I didn’t sleep at all last night and while I walked from my two classes and while in the car I did my usual self narration (Jd from Scrubs style) nevermind but I did watch the Serie [...]

Atalanta Bergamasca Calcio Information

By: Marco | Comments 7 Comments

La Dea isn’t one of histories favorite team but we had a good run in the 1988 Cup Winners Cup, the 1991 UEFA Cup Quarterfinals and we managed to win the 1963 Coppa Italia while also winning the Serie C1 in 1982, B in 1940, 1959, 1984, and 2005.
The fireworks didn’t properly blow up and [...]

Ciao!

By: Marco | Comments No Comments

Ciao calcio tifosi! You are probably wondering why I am covering Atlanta. (Get it? Atalanta….Atlanta? maybe its just me but I guess the city in the states has nothing to do with Atalanta, Bergamo.) I love the Serie A and I have been reading the Offsides blogs for sometime now and I saw that some [...]
