A Bridge to Far?

If you were mentioning about Tiger Wood's womanizing the women story kind of well expected (Thank you George Carlin) you would've never guessed the rift between the now and the former Chelsea players were due to a scandal.

The catch phrase would be; "I slept with your ex".

Some of us may not care anymore what are they (our ex) might do, but not Wayne Bridge. The Manchester City's fullback who is now living with the ex's children, and he loves them so much.

However, what did John Terry (his "best friend", his former "team mates", his "family", his "colleague", his "international teammate", his "to name but a few…") did? He slept with Wayne's ex.

To be honest, it sucks when you have this affair, especially when you are an established sportsman and a (not England) courageous leader (cough).

He has been the England and Chelsea heat ever since he first kicked the ball under the Blue's shirt. He won numerous of applaud and tons of appreciation through the years, but when this happened, it is like the end for John Terry and his lustrous career (his penalty missed during the Champion's League final against Man Utd will always be remembered).

First, his dad accused of dealing drugs. Then it is his mother, stealing in a supermarket. Today, the parents' beloved son went sleeping with someone's (ex) girlfriend. What's next in store for the Terry's? Paul sent to jail for swearing?

Alright. That's just the interface. Maybe too much detail would make John Terry turned from 'British Best Daddy' to 'Manchester Hated Scumbag'.

I watched the match, and yes my attention was on Wayne and the Chelsea captain, especially when it's a set piece or anything that would made them came into a contact.

Speaking of contact, if I'm not mistaken Mr. Bridge didn't made any eye contact to his "friend" thorough the match. Surprise? I don't think so.

Since the start of the match, I've noticed something sparking. The Captains of both teams had to lead their team to the field and then they shake hands. Since John Terry's the first man who the Man City's players would shook hands, guess where did Wayne Bridge was in the line?

He's the last person (if it's not for Carlos Tevez).

So the players shake hands, and all were pumped up for the match.

Oh, do you remember Patrick Vieira vs Roy Keane dated back in 2005? When Vieira was shaking hands with the Man utd players, the early victim that caused the bust up, Gary Neville did this "glare" and shook his hand hard, which really pumped the emotions up. Here's the vid. Click here.

However, what did Wayne Bridge does?

Yeah. He's either; "Oh? I don't know John was there..." or "..." over JT. As far as you would concern, snubbing a handshake is very rude. However, in this case, would this be justice for Bridge?

Who knows, but a drubbing defeat of Chelsea says it all.

What kind of dramas will be unfolded upon this very exciting season of the Premier League...?


No one knows.

p/s: The whole scandal truly disturb the image of John Terry. I really like to see Chelsea go down, but not like this.
