Sometimes sports miracles DO happen


If you haven't heard about the finish of the Barclay's Premier League season, you should.   After defeating Manchester United, Manchester City had to simply match what Man U. did in the last two games.  Well, Man U. won both games, so Man City had to do the same.   That would seem to be a relatively easy prospect against a 10-man Queens Park Rangers team (10 men due to a red card), but Man City found themselves trailing going into a five-minute extra time period at the end of the game, down 2-1.  They managed to score on a header two minutes in, then with less than half a minute left, Aguero took a roller from Balotelli past three defenders and sent it back behind to give Man City the win and the title.

To the delight of a whole light of light-blue fans in the stands who were praying for a miracle.

Well, they got it.  Heck of an ending to a great season.

Now we can look forward to Chelsea v. Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions Cup final.
