Why does the USA Today web story have a picture of Pablo with this caption:

Aregentina star Gabriel Mastroeni will take his game against the U.S.

That is pathetic news work.

From La Razon - A satisfied Bielsa now focuses on the encounter with the USA (http://www.larazon.com/) in Buenos Aires, Bielsa speaks about his concerns from the game against El Tri:

"The thing to remember is that too much of the game took place in our half ofthe field, more than what would be advisable." And he continued with his explanation of playing the combination of Rodríguez-Milito that left the Selection without a forward. "I don't think the change was an unfortunate one. I believe that from that point forward Argentina began to neutralize the game... What I did see is that from then on it was a lot harder on Mexico to play forward on our half of the field," said the Crazy Man.

I send an e-mail to USAtoday asking them to correct the caption. The person who wrote the caption probably got confused because Mastroeni was born in Argentina.

Possibly, but he got the guy's name wrong too. As dheck said, how many ways can you be wrong in one sentence? There is no excuse for such shoddy journalism.

Jim Rome must really be on the floor cracking up right now.


And I keep saying, there is a media conspiracy out there, financed by the "powers-that-be" of AT LEAST one of the major sports.
