    Will Olympiakos pull a ManU and demand real grass be laid down for the match? Or will they just figure, "Hey! Americ. Everything is plastic." ??

    If one of their players hurts themselves on the plastic pitch they will just spray some windex on it. ;)

    Does Maurico Wright play for Olympiakos? I thought I saw him in a CL game this year.

    Nope. Here is the english version of their website with the active roster.

    The only players I recognize at a glance are Giovanni (former Barca) and Christian Karembeu (Former Middlesbrough and Real Madrid)

    It frightens me that I actually understand this reference.

    It works. When I came out to college my dad bought my two things: a bookshelf and windex.

    I know my cousin used to play for a club in Greece. He just moved to Naperville from Greece a couple of months ago. I'm excited about this game!!! :D

    Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you said the Fire were playing Olympiadukakis. My bad.

    Are season ticket holders getting in on one of the bonus game tickets? I would assume.

    Hm, they play in a similar sized stadium, but it's a lot nicer looking than Cardinal.

    Holds between 14k and 15k. I assume the north end of the stadium is to the left.

    Word is they'll be showing My Big Fat Greek Wedding on Zach's butt before the match.

    Not sure, been playing email and phone tag. I'd have thought one of the bonus tickets will be used. Details should be announced this week. I told a few Greek America's and one Greek guy at work about the match and 2 out of 3 both said "great, never had the chance to boo Olympiakos" !!!!

    Is this the team Klopas played for when he was in Greece?

    No, he played for AEK Athens, his hometown (well, birth city) team.
     
  22. No, I think they're AEK's (Frankie's team) biggest rival.

    Actually, I'm almost certain that Olympiakos hate Panithiniakos (sp?) the most.

    IIRC olympiakos piraeus, panathinaikos and AEK are all in athens... and yes olympiakos v. panathinaikos is riot material
