oh man

I was lucky and privileged enough to be watching this live... In case you're not a big soccer fan, and I'm guessing most of the people who read this blog aren't, you may not have heard about it, but Lionel Messi, a young (my age) Argentine superstar who plays for FC Barcelona, scored a goal against Getafe the other day that was almost identical to his compatriot Diego Maradona's "Goal of the Century" against England in the 1986 World Cup. Watch and be awed. Absolutely incredible.
