Corinthians is top dog.

Timao defeated Atletico-MG 1-0.

Ceara lost to Internacional 2-1.

The loss dropped Vovo to third place.

Fluminense got by Santos 1-0.

The win vaulted Flu to second place in the table.

Corinthians has 21 bad boys.

Po-de-arroz has 19 points.

Ceara has 18 points.

Flamengo moved up one spot to fourth place with 15 points.

The race is on.

Sao Paulo has almost dropped outta sight.

Tricolor is buried in 13^th place.

Vasco is still in the danger zone.

Gigante de Colina is in 17^th place with nine points.

It is still very early in the season to ring up the white flag however; nine matches into the season there are some trends.

Timao started out very strong last year but by the end of the 2009 season Corinthians wound up in tenth place.

This year will be different for Timao.

Corinthians is strong this year.

Timao has more pieces in place and this will make them very dangerous.

All one has to do is look at the results.

Six wins, three draws, and zero losses.

Flamengo seems to have found a diamond in the rough with keeper Marcelo Lomba. Lomba has been playing lights since the murder Bruno was sent to prison.

The loss of Bruno, the drug addict Adriano, and Love may have motivated Petkovic and the rest to show us how good they can be.

Mengao has controlled the two last to matches.

Flamengo is now dictating the tempo and flow of the match thus forcing opponents to play our style of play.

This is upbeat and attacking.

Rubro-Negro needs another striker.

Other than Mengao is on the right path.

On Wednesday, Flamengo battles third place Avai.

This should be a battle royal.

Flamengo is at home Maracanã.

Home cooking has been bad for us.

The seventh round of the campeonato is in the books. Corinthians and Ceara each have 18 big ones. Corinthians is the top dog due to a better goal difference. Timao is a plus seven while Vovo is a plus six.

Flu is in third place with 15 points after a one all tie with Gremio Barueri.

Santos, Guarani-SP, Flamengo, Cruzeiro, and Palmeiras each have 12 points.

Santos is fourth spot with a plus four-goal difference.

Cruzeiro and Flamengo are for fifth with a plus two.

Palmeiras has a plus two as well but both Cruzeiro and Flamengo have scored 10 goals compared with Verdao’s eight goals.

Sao Paulo sits in ninth spot with 11 points.

The biggest disappointment is Vasco.

Gigante de Colina fought like hell in 2009 to get back to the Campeonato but now they are stinking the joint out.

Vasco is 19^th place with six points.

The surprise side is Fluminense.

Last year Po-de- arroz hovered near the bottom of the table.

Flu was almost given the heave-hoe.

Now Po-de-arroz is in third place.

Kudos to Fluminense on a great start to the campaign.

Rubro-Negro needs help.

Hopefully the offer made to Milan to only pay them the  salary and not pay Milan the opt out clause.

The supposed buyout is worth ten million.

UOL put it this way-Após uma primeira negativa do vice-presidente do Milan, Adriano Galliani, a negociação de Ronaldinho Gaúcho com o Flamengo pode ganhar novo capítulo. De acordo com o diário Corriere dello Sport, o jogador chega a Milão no próximo sábado acompanhado pelo irmão e agente, Assis, que deve enfim levar uma proposta oficial do clube carioca. Especula-se que o valor oferecido pelo Flamengo seja de aproximadamente 10 milhões de euros.

Milan officials thought this was a joke.

Na quinta-feira, Galliani ironizou o interesse flamenguista em contar com o jogador. “Flamengo? Nunca deu sinal de vida. Não levo em consideração hipóteses absurdas. Ronaldinho é do Milan e jogará a próxima temporada no Milan”, disse.

We will see.

The Flamengo nation needs another striker.

I have to admit I was very surprised that Mengao pulled out a huge 1-0 win over Botafogo at Maracanã.

This sucker was huge.

Paulo Sergio nailed the match winner in the 69^th minute.

A wicked penetration into the box by Petkovic set this puppy up. He made a sweet pass to mate Vinicius Pacheco. Pacheco dished the cheeky pass off to Sergio. Sergio deposited the ball into the naked net.

Game, set, and match to Rubro-Negro.

This gave us 12 points.

Flamengo moved up into a tie with Cruzeiro fro fifth place.

Corinthians and Ceara tied nil-nil.

We are only six points outta first place.

This was a huge win.

Botafogo-Flamengo is a huge clássico in Rio de Janeiro.

Overall, Mengao played well without Adriano, Love, and Bruno.

Bruno’s replacement Marcelo Lomba did very well in goal. He made several acrobatic saves. Lomba also saved Mengao’s bacon at three times.

I will give him a B plus for effort.

President Patricia Amorim said this was good news for the Flamenguista nation. This win brought us some joy.

Globo Esporte- “O Flamengo precisa de boas notícias”. A frase da presidente Patrícia Amorim teve repercussão nos jogadores na noite desta quarta-feira. Em jogo de muita aplicação e uma pitada de talento de Petkovic, o Rubro-Negro superou o favoritismo do Botafogo e venceu por 1 a 0, no Maracanã. O gol da vitória foi de Paulo Sergio, no segundo tempo, após excelente passe do sérvio.

A vitória devolve um pouco da alegria perdida na Gávea após a prisão do goleiro Bruno. Nos dias que antecederam o jogo, tanto Patrícia quanto o diretor-executivo Zico ressaltaram a necessidade de vitória para desviar o noticiário das páginas policiais. Foram atendidos.

In reality, the win took the attention off of the murder Bruno who is now in jail awaiting trial.

Youngster Diego Mauricio and Vinicius Pacheco took a while before the duo began to click but once they did this will give Flamengo a good strike force. Throw into the mix Petkovic and Mengao could do some damage.

O time desmantelado e o ataque jovem pesaram para as dificuldades do Flamengo nos minutos iniciais. Mas aos poucos o nervosismo passou. Diego Maurício caprichou no visual, colocou tranças dread e conseguiu acertar a primeira jogada aos 19. Ele tabelou com Vinícius Pacheco dentro da área, mas o companheiro precipitou o chute e mandou para fora.

A dupla fez outra boa jogada aos 22 e Vinícius, desta vez como pé esquerdo, chutou forte. Jefferson espalmou para escanteio. O Botafogo recorreu aos contra-ataques. Marcelo Cordeiro fez ótimo lançamento aos 27, Juan cochilou e Alessandro entrou livre na área. O lateral do Flamengo se recuperou e conseguiu atrapalhar o chute.

Por causa de toda a situação que precedeu a partida, o Rubro-Negro, surpreendentemente, dominou boa parte do primeiro tempo. Aos 34, Kleberson cruzou rasteiro e Petkovic chutou rente ao ângulo esquerdo.

Sao Paulo got the butts handed to them by Avai 2-1.

Avai scored the first two goals of the match before Tricolor added a cosmetic goal midway through the second half.

All and all I am a very happy camper.

Mengao travels to Atletico-MG on Sunday July 18^th at Goiania.

Flamengo has had tons of trouble on the road. For that matter at home Mengao stinks the joint out too.

Maybe this trend will change.

I am not holding my breath.

We have some huge matches that place on Wednesday. Corinthians and Ceara each had 17 points.

These two sides will meet at Vovo house in Rei Pele.

Sao Paulo is taking on mid table Avai in Mouribi.

Tricolor cannot afford to lose this sucker.

If Sao Paulo loses and either Timao or Vovo win this will drop Tricolor further off the pace.

We are only seven matches into the season. There is lots of futebol to be played but eight out of ten times that side that gets off to a hot start will usually win the Campeonato.

Last year was the exception when Mengao came roaring back after a horrible start.

I don’t think this is going to happen this year.

Flamengo is missing the drug addict and drunk Adriano, the murder Bruno, and Vagner Love.

This year we may wind up at the bottom of the heap.

Lets see what happens after Rubro-Negro’s match against Botafogo on Wednesday.

I am sure hoping we play better than our last outing against Goias on June 6^th, which Mengao lost 2-1.

The funny thing is this Flamengo, Fogao, Palmeiras, and Cruzeiro each has nine points.

Lots of great stuff to talk about on Friday.

Now it’s back to my favorite team Flamengo. I am total Flamenguista.

Flamengo has been playing crap before for the World Cup break on June 10^th.

Rubro-negro lost to Goias 2-1 at Maracanã.

This marked the last match Vagner Love played for Flamengo.

There is some really good news for us Flamenguistas. Ronaldinho Gaucho has reportedly has a verbal agreement to play for Flamengo.

This is almost a done deal according to several sources-ESPN and Globo Esporte.

President Patricia Amorim said it is almost a done deal.

Globo Esporte put it this way- A notícia divulgada pelo “Gazzetta dello Sport” de que o Milan estaria disposto a liberar Ronaldinho Gaúcho antes do fim de seu contrato deixou a presidente Patrícia Amorim animada. Ela disse, no início da noite desta terça-feira, na Gávea, que se esta situação for resolvida, são boas e reais as chances de o apoiador ser contratado pelo Flamengo. Apesar de dizer que não existe nada muito adiantado, a dirigente confirmou que já deu início a um projeto de marketing para bancar os salários do jogador.

Ronaldinho Gaucho coming to Mengao hinges on him getting out of his AC Milan contract. The contract expires 2012.

Preocupada em não iludir o torcedor, Patrícia Amorim disse que a chegada de Ronaldinho depende basicamente da sua liberação junto ao Milan, com quem tem vínculo até julho de 2012. Por isso, ficou satisfeita ao saber que a imprensa italiana já divulga que seu clube não descarta a possibilidade de rescindir seu contrato para ter mais poder de fogo para investir em outras contratações.

This will surely help us since Bruno is in jail, Adriano left for Italy, and Vagner Love is back with CSK Moscow.

Menago has a huge match tonight agianst Botafogo.

Flamengo is currently in 9th place with nine points.

Fogao has nine points but are in the 8th spot due to a better goal difference.

Menago is a plus one while Botafogo is a plus 2.

Corinthians and Ceare are tied with 17 points each but Timao is the top dog with a plus seven compared to a plus six for Vovo.

Fluminense is third with 15 points.

Flu in third place is the big surprise so far in the Campeonato.

Sao Paulo sits in 6th place with 11 points.

Brasil Cameonato is back in full swing.

Let’s hope Mengao doesn’t stink the joint out.

We have arrived at the World Cup break. Mengao has off until July 7^th.

Flamengo dropped five places to ninth place after Saturday’s 2-1 loss to Goias.

Corinthians sits a top the Campeonato with 17 points.

Timao escaped with two all draw against Botafogo.

Ceara is in second place with 16 points.

Vovo shut out Atletico-MG 1-0.

Flu sits in third place with 15 points.

Santos jumped all over Vasco 4-0.

My Friend Gil is very sad that his Gigante da Colina sinks big time.

Vasco is near the butt end of the table with five points.

If Gigante da Colinas continues on this path they will get sent down again.

Vasco was just newly promoted at the start of Campeonato.

Verdao is in seventh place with ten points.

Four points separate fourth place from 15^th place.

Sao Paulo sits in sixth place with eleven points.

Tricolor took it to Gremio 3-1.

Corinthians took care of business against Internacional.

Timao shut em out 2-0.

Corinthians moved back into first place with 16 points.

Ceara is in second position with 14 points.

Fla the wonder dog is third spot with 12 points.

Fluminense is the surprise team of the Campeonato so far.

No one expected Po-de-arroz to be in contention for the top spot.

Last year Fla was almost eight six outta of the Campeonato.

Mengao is in fourth place with nine points due to a better goal difference.

Santos, Cruzeiro, and Guarani-SP each have nine big ones as well.

Sao Paulo is in eleventh place with eight points.

Verdao is in 12^th place with eight points as well.

There is a logjam beginning with fourth place all the way thru 13^th place. nine teams are separated by one point.

There is one more match in the Campeonato before World Cup break begins on June 7^th.

It is still early in the season but Mengao needs to clean house against Goias on Saturday at home in Maracanã.

The match against Goias will be the Love man’s final one for Rubro-Negro before he heads back to Russia.

Vagner Love needs to rip the twines.

He has scored four goals in six matches for Flamengo.

We are surely going to miss him ripping the twines.

Petkovic and the guys are going to need to step up big time.

Lets hope so. If not the Flamenguista nation will be upset.
