Lionel Messi
Born on June 24, 1987, Argentina
First of all, seeing his two brothers as a soccer player, he was so much passionate about playing soccer. This led him to join ‘The Youth System- Newell’s Old Boys’. But, being recognizably smaller than rest of the boys in the system, he was diagnosed with hormone-deficiency which restricted his growth.
Glad to know, at the age of 13, he was offered a chance to be trained at soccer powerhouse FC. As a result, This very club (Barcelona FC) agreed to pay for his hormone deficiency treatments, which his parents couldn’t afford.
After his treatment, he quickly moved from junior rank of FC system ranks; at the age of 16 he first made his appearance on Barcelona team. So much powerful Messi, was able to break the record of a younger player to score a goal for the Club. And this motivated him to work even harder and was able to take the team to a new level. His continuous effort led Argentina to hold the title in the under-20 World cup.
Rentless effort made him successful to get even stronger in the team. He drew comparison to his fellow Argentinean player Diego Mardona. So much enthused about this fellow player, after his retirement, Mardona announced Messi as a leader who has given new lessons to the football cosmos.
Keenly downplaying the rivarly, he won an Olympic gold medal gold medal for Argentina at Beijing Olympics. His talent was so much apparent that his defenders were unable to catch up with his talent. Defending all the other teams, he led Barcelona to La Liga and Spanish Super Cup Championship in 2010 and 2011. Along with this, Argetinean team could hold 2011 Champions League Title.

BOYCOTT AMERICAN WOMEN! http://www.BoycottBitches.com I am an American man, and I have decided to boycott American women. In a nutshell, American women are the most likely to cheat on you, to divorce you, to get fat, to steal half of your money in the divorce courts, don’t know how to cook or clean, don’t want to have children, etc. Therefore, what intelligent man would want to get involved with American women? American women are generally immature, selfish, extremely arrogant and self-centered, mentally unstable, irresponsible, and highly unchaste. The behavior of most American women is utterly disgusting, to say the least. This blog is my attempt to explain why I feel American women are inferior to foreign women (non-American women), and why American men should boycott American women, and date/marry only foreign (non-American) women.

I turned around and took off running into the desert area behind the gas station. Bullets were flying past me so I turned around, pulled out a machine gun, and started rocking out like Rambo. I mowed down 4 Mexicans as they chased me and I sent them straight to hell with my machine gun. I got far enough away from the exploding gas station which was now on massive fire and ducked down behind a large cactus and looked back and saw a police helicopter flying towards my location with it’s search lights beaming down towards me. I knew they would discover me within about 60 seconds so I had no choice. I pulled out my portable rocket launcher, loaded it, and then fired a guided mini-missile and blew up the chopper. Right before it hit the helicopter I saw the horrified expressions of the two pilots, one male and one female, as they saw the missile coming and knew they were about to get blown straight to hell.
