Joseppio's Bio

The artist formerly known as Joe E.
Joe had a revelation last week. It happened in the split second as he turned on his right foot at the edge of the box to smack the sweetest of left-foot volleys into the top corner. In that split second he discovered that beneath his pasty Irish exterior beats the heart of a Brazilian superstar. Since that day, as an homage to the beautiful Brazilian style of play he has taken on the special name Joseppio!

Think you know a bit about football? The question remains unanswered. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/91679-11-12-08-what-is-my-name

You probably won't hear much from me in the coming months as I am writing my final thesis but, in the immortal words of Arnie, I'll be back!

The Short List What Joseppio thinks about sport's most pressing questions

Favorite Athletes

Stevie G and El Nino (they play as one), Kevin Muscat (gotta love the evil bastard). As from the 08/04/2008, Theo Walcott - a superstar in the making. And the man the faithful know only as Richo.
Favorite Sports Teams

Liverpool FC, Melbourne Victory, St Patricks Athletic, Richmond Tigers (AFL)
Favorite Coaches

Rafa the Gaffa, Trap, Golden Guus, Terry 'Plough' Wallace, and I have a bit of a soft spot for 'arry Redknapp.
All Time Sports Moment

2005 UEFA Champions League final, when Gerrard scored the first Liverpool goal and sprinted to the halfway line to get the game started again. I knew then who was going to win.

Final in Istanbul 2005
Uploaded by felekman
Most Memorable Game Attended

Melbourne Victory 3-3 Central Coast Mariners in 2006. Danny Allsopp scores a last minute equaliser to salvage a point for a nine-man Melbourne Victory. Best game of the A-league so far.
Melbourne Victory 6-0 Adelaide United. Grand Final 2007. Five goals to Archie Thompson.
Most Unbreakable Sports Record

Hawthorn full forward, Peter Hudson's 146 goal season in 1970. (AFL)

For all of those out there who say baseball should have a salary cap, prepare to have some knowledge dropped on you.

Hey Joe, in what I hope to be a new feature to the site, I've written a comprehensive biography of France Legend Michel Platini, it's long so I can understand if you don't have the time to look at it but otherwise I'd really appreciate your opinion on it.

That seems nice.

Problem is, there isn't enough credibility given to such researches here in India.

And we think most of the PhD people at our institue are just there for perks.

I'm going to work on advances in Nano-technology - perhaps by the end of this semester along with my usual workload.

Perhaps, I might not explode, but I'm close to another Mount Etna stage.
