It’s really the most exciting time of the year for the Rankings. This week we’ll see a ranking rarity as #1 Barcelona hosts #2 Real Madrid. We’ll also see the top teams battle in the Champions League Semifinals. It doesn’t get any better than this for football fans. Finally thanks to the guys over at Vuvuzela for having me on the show this past weekend.
