Hey all! I was planning on coming back last week, after a long time away. (I was in Sicily all summer until the 20th of September) But now with Alex&#8217;s Hamstring injury sidelining him for 6 weeks, seriously is he made of glass or something, I don&#8217;t really have much to report.

Hey all! I was planning on coming back last week, after a long time away. (I was in Sicily all summer until the 20th of September) But now with Alex&#8217;s Hamstring injury sidelining him for 6 weeks, seriously is he made of glass or something, I don&#8217;t really have much to report. </p>
<p>I&#8217;ll post updates on his progress and if I find any interviews, but I do plan to be back full time! Promise!</p>
<p>Under the cut are some pictures from a recent SportsWeek shoot thanks to the wonderful blogger <a href="http://fuckyeahalexandrepato.tumblr.com">here</a>:<br />
<span id="more-73"></span><br />

<p>It basically talks about his ordeal he went through when he was 11, with the tumor in his arm, and how he&#8217;s hoping to give comfort to those that are currently suffering. Que menino fofo! (What a cute boy!) </p>
<p>I hope you enjoy!</p>

 Word around the Italian and Brazilian media is that Alex and Sthefany, after just 9 months and 13 days, are calling it quits. Que triste (How sad!)! I didn&#8217;t want to turn this into a gossip blog, but because it has been reported in more than one location I wanted to talk about it.<br />
<span id="more-55"></span><br />
Reports from <a href="http://sport.sky.it/sport/calcio_italiano/2010/04/15/pato_voci_su_crisi_con_moglie.html">Sky</a>, <a href="http://revistaquem.globo.com/Revista/Quem/0,,EMI133094-9531,00-NOITADAS+DE+PATO+E+RONALDINHO+GAUCHO+AGRAVAM+CRISE+COM+STHEFANY.html">Quem</a> and <a href="http://www.atarde.com.br/cultura/noticia.jsf?id=2252218">atarde</a> are all stating that Pato has taken up clubbing with the <del datetime="2010-04-22T01:10:38+00:00">ugly</del> one and only <a href="http://ronaldinho.theoffside.com/">Ronaldinho</a>, and this has irked Sthefany to no end. She is also very homesick, missing her family and friends, and doesn&#8217;t like being just a housewife, you go menina! She wants to work back in Brazil, but he&#8217;s tied to Milan which will make a move for both of them impossible at the moment. </p>
<p>This marriage was in trouble from the start. Sthefany and Alex, you may remember, were broken up for a time being around December to January of last year. So only six months after they got back together they tied the knot. Whoever told them that was a good idea should be punched. I mean really, who gets married six months after a break up? Obviously there were already underlying issues present. The boy was smart though because from the articles I&#8217;ve been reading, if the divorce is true, Sthefany will walk away without a dime (GO PRENUPS!), not that she really needs it though.  Anyways both Sthef&#8217;s mom, Sandra, and Alex&#8217;s dad, Geraldo, have flown into Milan to see if they can help them work this out. Now I understand that parents are going to want to protect their children from hurt, but I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s good for parents to get involved in an already complicated situation. Whatever happens I hope it&#8217;s for the best and they work it out!</p>
<p>Good luck Alex and Sthefany.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So I know it&#8217;s been a long while since I&#8217;ve updated, but real life got in the way of my football life. Anyways we are back, and what better way to come back than to an AC Milan win and Alex scoring on his first match back from injury.<br />
<span id="more-47"></span><br />
Alex has been injured for quite some time, two months to be exact, with a supposed groin strain. (When Milan&#8217;s official site</a> translated his injury it didn&#8217;t make sense.) Anyways there was a lot of confusion surrounding his injury, at least for me, and exactly what he was suffering from. </p>
<p><img src="http://pato.theoffside.com/files/2010/02/610x.jpg" alt="SOCCER-ITALY/" width="410" height="286" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-48" /> I&#8217;d have to say his first game back went pretty well. He scored a goal, had one annulled for offside, and was very active. Now I know I&#8217;m going to get grief for saying this, but I think Milan with Pato is better than Milan with Beckham.</p>
<p>Milan&#8217;s official site conducted an interview with him, and you can read it in English <a href="http://www.acmilan.com/NewsDetail.aspx?idNews=116416">here</a> if you are interested.</p>
<p>With that said, here&#8217;s to hoping we beat United on Tuesday just like way back when in 07.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The start of the season hasn&#8217;t been good to our boy wonder Pato. It hasn&#8217;t been good at all. There are reports from La Republica that he spoke back to his senior teammates, which doesn&#8217;t bode well&#8230;especially if say that person were Gattuso. Take this with a grain of salt though because La Republica is known to cause trouble being that they are a left-winged paper and like take swipes at Milan because of Berlusconi&#8217;s politics. </p>
<p><span id="more-44"></span><br />
Now I&#8217;ve read elsewhere that the only time they think that Pato did make a snarky comment was when Pippo took that shot instead of passing to him when he was wide open&#8230;and really who wouldn&#8217;t be upset at that?? I was frustrated when I saw that and I&#8217;m not even the one playing.</p>
<p>It must be frustrating when you go through a drought period&#8230;the blame is put on you. You are the one that didn&#8217;t score, you are the one that lost the game because you didn&#8217;t score, you this and you that. I&#8217;m sure it doesn&#8217;t exactly boost your morale. I still think that like some of us Milanisti who are still trying to accept Kaka&#8217;s departure, Pato was affected in a big way. His partnership with Kaka was great! They read each other very well&#8230;and now he doesn&#8217;t have that. He has to start from scratch and reform a relationship with someone else. It must be hard to have to start over like that.</p>
<p>Anyways here&#8217;s to hoping that Wednesday&#8217;s game goes a little better for our boy wonder than the previous ones this season have treated him.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sorry for not updating, but after everything that went down with Milan in June I&#8217;ve been kind of disgusted, and went on strike. Since the friendlies have already started and with that the seasons start is just around the corner, I&#8217;ve decided that I need to come back to my Milan life. So coming up I&#8217;ll have a recap of the Duckie Brito wedding and more. </p>
<p>Sorry if this break has inconvenienced any one, but more likely than not since there aren&#8217;t to many followers no one missed me that much.</p>
<p>Like I said before more to come before the start of the season, which is when I&#8217;ll be back to posting normally.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One. </p>
<p>Please, standby as we watch the team self-destruct before our very eyes.</p>

<p><span id="more-36"></span><br />
I know I&#8217;m being a little dramatic, but after this past week I think I deserve it. Now, if you choose to believe the rumors that are floating around right now, Alex is reported to have said his future is undecided, and that he&#8217;ll talk to Ancelotti before he makes any decisions&#8230;<em>*le sigh.*</em> Do they think it&#8217;s funny or something to reduce me to a nervous breakdown so soon after the end of Kakagate 2.0? I can&#8217;t handle anymore upheaval at Milan.</p>
<p>After Kaka left reports started swirling around saying Pato was unsure of his future. Uncle Fester Galliani has announced that Pato is 100% percent off the market and not for sale. You can choose to interpret this as you wish, you know, considering just last year Kaka was nontransferable. Now Pato has said that he was misinterpreted and used, oh the drama that is Ac Milan. </p>
<p><img src="http://pato.theoffside.com/files/2009/06/janela0806_4.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="331" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-38" /><br />
<em>It must be fun to have 35 microphones in your face when you talk, no?</em></p>
<p>Good luck to all of you as we try and survive this transfer window&#8230;I want September AGORA!</p>
<p><strong><em>NOTE: Now that school is done, I&#8217;ll be back to updating regularly. </em></strong></p>

&#8220;Sthefany hard at work.&#8221; <span id="more-33"></span></p>
<p>Word on the street is that Alex and Sthefany are going to tie the knot on July 7th, 2009 at the luxury <a href="http://www.copacabanapalace.com.br/web/orio_pt/copacabana_choose_language.jsp">Copacabana Palace hotel</a>. One word, WOW (I&#8217;m not jealous or anything I swear <img src='http://pato.theoffside.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> ). Initial reports had the guest list including over 1,500 friends and family. Anyways mama Sthefany, Sandra Brito, has come out and said that those numbers are absolute rubbish and so, so, so not real. The event is going to be ultra exclusive with only a few close knit family and friends. </p>
<p>Two rooms have been booked at the hotel, and O Globo is reporting that dinner for the guests is estimated to cost around US $450,000 (again this is just speculation from O Globo, what statistics they are using to get that number we don&#8217;t know). When I read that number the first thought through my mind was, oh that&#8217;s all?? <img src='http://pato.theoffside.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' />  That&#8217;s peanuts right? If I were to spend that much money on a wedding my guest better be bringing a d*mn good gift, that&#8217;s all I gotta say. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>School has effectively taken over my life, so I&#8217;m sorry for that. I&#8217;m hoping to update at least once a week until I&#8217;m done then I&#8217;ll be back full time&#8230;onto the post now: <span id="more-31"></span></p>
<p>The last few games since that &#8220;incident&#8221; that shall remain nameless, Alex has started from the bench. What I don&#8217;t understand is why. Is it because Pippo Inzaghi has showed a glimpse of what he once was so Ancelotti threw all options out the window to field Prima Donna Pippo? Or is there more to it? What ever the reason be Ancelotti better suck it up and start fielding our starlet, because I&#8217;m growing impatient and he does not want to see me angry. What I do know is that with a comments like this:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;It is true that I haven&#8217;t scored for a long time, but in any case I am enjoying my time here, and I always give my all for this club. I will do my best to change this against Udinese.</p>
<p>&#8220;The coach has decided not to play me in some matches recently, and that is something that I have to respect.</p>
<p>&#8220;I still like everything about him though, as he has been a major influence for my career. I hope that we can win this weekend&#8217;s match for him too, as he deserves it.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Obviously he&#8217;s not injured.</p>
<p>Pato gave an interview insisting that Ronaldinho will stay, saying:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;He always wants to play, but in any case I see him happy. He works at his hardest and is always ready to be called to play.&#8221; </p></blockquote>
<p>Made me all warm and fuzzy inside to see him supportive of Ronaldinho, but to tell you the truth I can&#8217;t imagine why Ronaldinho would want to stay. He hasn&#8217;t played and come November and the imminent re-arrival of &#8220;Golden balls&#8221; he probably won&#8217;t ever play. All in all it&#8217;s been another busy week for him. </p>
<p>Sadly he is still sans hair, but it&#8217;s growing back so there is hope! Hopefully Sthefany and everyone on the team laughed at him and teased him to no end so he&#8217;ll never do it again.</p>

<p><img src="http://pato.theoffside.com/files/2009/05/13_2959-pato-stephany.jpg" alt="" width="450" height="337" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-27" /></p>
<p>Just days after admitting that he wants to marry girlfriend Sthefany Brito, pictured above, within the next year, he goes and shaves his head. He said in an interview that he had been wanting to shave his head completely for a while but Sthefany was against it, smart chica if you ask me. So the other night they were at home and he mentioned it again, they talked to her sister and brother Kayky, who has recently just shaved his head also, and they won the battle of the hair showdown&#8230;unfortunately. I&#8217;d like to say I&#8217;m just kidding but unfortunately the photographic evidence doesn&#8217;t lie. </p>
<p><img src="http://pato.theoffside.com/files/2009/05/13865_big.jpg" alt="" width="396" height="290" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-29" /></p>
<p>In the same interview where he&#8217;s quoted as saying he wants to marry Sthefany, he also admits he wants to win the CL, with <a href="http://www.acmilan.theoffside.com">Milan</a>, and fly to Paris to receive the Golden Ball Trophy. I got winded just writing out the schedule he has planned for himself, good thing that those events don&#8217;t happen all at once. </p>
<p>Here is a picture of the culprit that had a lot to do with Pato shaving his head. No, he&#8217;s not single (just in case any ladies were wondering).</p>

<p>To finish off this post here is a video of Pato being interviewed yesterday about the total mutilation of his hair. </p>

A translation isn&#8217;t really needed because I basically covered  everything up above <img src='http://pato.theoffside.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' />  . Although someone should tell him that the Uncle Fester look doesn&#8217;t suit him.</p>
<p><em>Hey guys, sorry I haven&#8217;t been able to post lately. I&#8217;ve been really busy with school. Only a few weeks left though and then I&#8217;ll be back like the beginning. </em></p>
