What do you think of the new Inter Milan shirt for this season?
posted by brucio at 17:14

Oh. My. God. That is the lamest kit I have ever seen. I don't even know what it looks like. Almost like a Fiesta costume. Put a sombrero on his head and he's set.
Absolutely agree about having someone pickup the English rights to the Mexican league.
Pretty hard to screw up the Inter kit, but they did.
