That's why I support Rome and Lazio in Europe

(by Ercole Fragasso) On March 2, 1989 ... many hairs and many kilos ago, a certain Francesco Cossiga, on the proposal of the then Minister of Defense Valerio Zanone, appointed me with a presidential decree Second Lieutenant of the Commissioner of the Military Corps of the CRI, Auxiliary of the State Armed Forces.
And that very day, as per the rules, I kissed the Tricolore that I paid homage to rose in odd numbers of white and red (in reference to the colors of the CRI) with a lot of green rosette to form the colors of our (who ??? ) Flag.
Flag that in Europe “pallonara” are still called to defend Rome and Lazio and therefore as an Italian, as an Officer, as a person I dare to say intelligent, I can only support and cheer.
I would also support Napoli and Ambrosiana if they were able to achieve the results that the two teams in the Capital with full merit have so far achieved.
I am not interested in teasing (for which, fortunately, being gifted with great self-irony, I enjoy it) of four losers who have not played the European cups for years and who still do not understand if they will play them next year; I am not interested in the "cowards" of some Vesuvian who shoots fireworks (not considering, however, that just last night they lost the residual hopes of an unlikely and undeserved championship) to celebrate the Spanish theft; I am not interested in the grim sporting rivalries in the national sphere because outside the border I support Italy and I continue to get excited and to sing the hymn to the attention every time it is played, whether it is "alla Pierantoni" or in a Cecchignola barracks, or in Afghanistan or in Lebanon, in Kosovo or in Albania or in front of a TV for a Grand Prix or for “my” national team.
I do not care that someone enjoys my defeat (read theft last night) because this is the attitude of a helpless person who feels satisfaction if one night a year the one upstairs or downstairs, "misfires" with his woman.
In all this I am lucky enough (as well as ... to never miss :-) :-) :-)) to be ahead but very far ahead of those who turn on a TV to cheer against and this is because they are obviously serene unlike them , I "enjoy" my successes and not the failures of others and above all because I consider all those who have religious, political, cultural and sporting ideas different from mine, not enemies but adversaries.
Having said that, everyone can do what they want, precisely by virtue of that freedom that I have always placed as a bulwark of relationships of any kind that I establish with anyone but cheer, and here I turn to my "hunchbacked" friends, for the Liverpool that has us killed 39 “brothers”, for Real who robbed us last night or for Merkel's Bayern not to cheer on Roma does not honestly seem wise to me.
And then I repeat, Forza Roma and Forza Lazio (good luck for tonight), raise the Tricolor as high as possible!
