I'll be at the first preseason game.

 

[Barcaman]

Niiice. Looking forward to some pics XMG.

 

[XaviMessiGirl]

Yup, I'll try, I'm behind one of the goals though so it isn't the best view for photos. I'm hoping Gerrard will be playing for the Galaxy by then too, when I went to Liverpool he was injured so I've never seen him in person.

California at 1.00 PM? Damn.

 

[xXKonan]

It's a shame I don't live in California anymore, I would totally go to the LA Galaxy vs Barca match if I still did.

After this crappy Copa America final, I can't wait to see Barca back in business again. Tired of watching Estonian league also.
