Silvio and now Ronaldo, too, size up some hot Italian action for themselves

When you come down on the same side as Silvio Berlusconi in respect to the tact and taste level of your comments about the relative attractiveness of Italian women, well, you probably haven't noticed that the '60s have ended.

Cristiano Ronaldo had this to say about those banging Italian babes in advance of today's 2nd Leg at Old Trafford against Inter Milan:

"Will I ever play in Italy? Never say never in life," the World Player of the Year told Tuttosport. "I do gladly travel there, like I did last summer, because there are the most beautiful and sexiest girls in the world - joking aside I admire your football, you're the world champions."

Look at Ronaldo there. He's doing schtick. He's got a bit going for himself. That's cute. Maybe he can join Berlusconi's anti-rape brigade to protect those beautiful women. If Silvio's right, they're going to need all the help they can get.
