Bixente Lizarazu. It’s fair to say you are not and never will be my favorite person in the world. Let’s leave it at that.

OGC Nice - Not sure when this team pic was taken. Maybe pre-WWI and almost certainly well before WWII. If you like French Football then check out French Football Weekly - the web’s premier English language French Football site.
