"Then he [Michael Ballack] single-handedly ruined Bayern Munich's reputation in Europe" Can someone explain this for me? I don't know much about what happens in Germany. Thanks.

He masterminded the early exit from the Champions League - very unusual for Bayern Munich.

Big Calm: Well, that explains it... This was hilarious... THE STEVE PENK AWARD FOR EXCEPTIONAL AMUSEMENT It'd be too easy to nominate Emile Heskey, so Emile Heskey it is. Three minutes into England's World Cup clash with Denmark, Mr Em took carthorse comedy to new levels. Without a Dane in sight, he attempted his trademark shin-trap, but instead clattered over his hooves and skidded along the turf on his teeth. This too... MOST CLUMSY MOMENT IN THE BIG BECKS HOUSE 4.15am. Michael's alarm clock goes off accidentally. Quick as a flash, he jumps out of bed and dispatches the clock into a pile of pillows, where the ringing is muffled. Thanks to Michael, nobody has woken up. He goes back to sleep. 4.18am. Emile's alarm clock goes off accidentally. Quick as a flash, he jumps out of bed and accidentally trips over the clock, falling face first into the wardrobe which falls sideways onto the CD player which suddenly starts playing Kieron Dyer's Loudest Ayia Napa Hits In The World... Ever! at full volume. Thanks to Emile, everyone is awake. Now we know why they keep Heskey around...for the entertainment.
