Since Nesta has come back from holiday and has resumed training for
the new season, it is time for MOD3 to stir from its summer slumber.

Has anyone noticed this bit from acmilan.com's front page feature article?

NEW SEASON DAWNS
7/14/2005 2:21:00 PM
Milan have warmed up their engines and are ready to get off to a
roaring start to the new season. The players gathered at Milanello on
Thursday for the first day of pre-season training. Rino Gattuso was
one of the first to arrive, having worked with the new arrivals
yesterday afternoon along with Lino Marzoratti, promoted to the
first-team squad, Alessandro Nesta and Kakhaber Kaladze.

I know everyone takes Nesta being punctual and hard-working for
granted. But on a slow-news-day in the early pre-season, I might as
well point out Nesta arriving a day before the official start of
training camp to start work with the workaholic Gattuso and a few
others, and pass it off as "news". ;-D
