Do soccer players have
a) better sex after a winning match
b) better sex after a losing match
c) no sex -- are you f--king kidding me, honey? Did you see me running for two straight hours out there? I know I'm made of muscle but please, can we do it in the morning?

ThierryHenrypie? LOL! Want me to want you? ahem...
Well, if you had a close look at Henry's pic, I'd pick answer n#1 ;D
And opinionista (can I call you by your real name here?), the Spanish coach actually passed a racist comment on Henry! My own lovely Henry!!

Oh, Aragonés is a racist pig. No doubt about it. Everyone knows that in Spain. He got in trouble here not long ago for making racist remarks against a player, can't remember who. Few people like him. He's a total pig.
You can call me by my name, no problem.

Hey Natali, that reminds me of something I have read a while ago. In an interview with the German paper "Die Tageszeitung" the actor Daniel Brühl (who has a Spanish mother) said something about latent racism in Spain and gave football as an example. During a football match of the F.C. Barcelona, he said, he could hear guttural sounds resembling monkeys directed at black players. He pointed out that something like this would be commented on by the Chancellor immediately, should it happen in Germany. In Spain, however, nobody seemed to care much.
A couple of Spanish newspapers and websites quoted him:
--- Quote ---Daniel Brühl denuncia
El actor alemán Daniel Brühl, que se dio a conocer en todo el mundo con la película 'Good Bye Lenin' y con la de 'Los Edukadores', se encuentra en España rodando 'Salvador', una película del cineasta catalán Manuel Huerga. El actor denuncia en una entrevista concedida al izquierdista diario 'Die Tageszeitung'('taz') que existe "un racismo latente" en España.
El actor alemán Daniel Brühl, que rueda en España 'Salvador', del cineasta catalán Manuel Huerga, denuncia en una entrevista concedida al izquierdista diario 'Die Tageszeitung'('taz') que existe "un racismo latente" en España.
Daniel Brühl constata que hay diferencias entre España y Alemania, ya que "por ejemplo, en España no hay éxitos electorales de partidos neonazis como en Alemania del este, pero sin embargo hay un racismo latente".
Brühl, que dará vida en el filme de Huerga al anarquista Salvador Puig Antich, pone como ejemplo que en los partidos de fútbol del F.C. Barcelona se oyen sonidos guturales que imitan a los monos contra jugadores negros.
El actor, hijo de un alemán y una española, asegura que si esto ocurriera en Alemania, inmediatamente saldría el canciller Gerhard Schroeder para denunciarlo, cosa que no ocurre en España, y lo achaca a que los españoles tienen "otra mentalidad". (...)

Yap. I remember such a case with Samuel Eto'o who is originally from Cameroon and plays for Barcelona!
He endured quite alot of racial insults during one game he was reduced to tears .. :'( (this happened in Spain..)
The crowd from the opposing team and some 'fans' had to be warned to stop the monkey sounds they were making ...wtf is up with that?? :(
