Thank you both! Alex, I still can see the (R) at the title of the thread. Can this be done? I am afraid of being carded, if I post results here.
Re: Flu who?? A: Rio's Champion -------- Nice pic, but on the wrong thread, Riotom9. This is not the right place for the "vulture's" shirt.
Idols Carlos Alberto Torres (Brazil's Captain - World Cup Team Winner - 1970) Ricardo Gomes (Brazil's Captain -1990 - World Cup Champion 1994)
FLA vs. FLU. The most traditional and spetacular classic of Brazil's football. Zico marks Rivelino. What a duel! Two of the best players in Brazilian history! Was it good for you?

I put it ther I put the [R] in the subject header... it's all set - at least I think it is. Don't worry about being carded with this.
Re: Flu who?? Although I am Fluminense to the bone. I could never hate the Botafogo of Garrincha and later Jairzinho, the Fluminense of Didi, Gerson, Cafuringa, Paulo Cezar and Rivelino and later Assis, Washington, Branco and Ricardo Gomes, the Flamengo of Zico, Andrade, Junior, Leandro and later Bebeto and even the codfish smell of the Vasco of Romario.
July 21st, 2002. Flu is a hundred years old. Congratulations Fluminense!!! Watch Fluminense's, Copa dos Campeões quarterfinal match against Palmeiras today, Flu's centennial, at Fox Sports World - 12:00PM PST/3PM EST. Copa dos Campeões is worth a place at Copa Libertadores.
