Making Il Duce Proud

SMiA's favorite fascist and Lazio have finally resolved their differences. Paulo Di Canio and his dream club have been embroiled in a legal battle dating back to last summer. The fan favorite left the club to play for Serie C2 (Italian fourth division) side Cisco Roma. But the problems stemmed from Di Canio claiming that the club still owed him $49,000. The club countered that the same sum was required to pay off fines for his lack of discipline and for shirts he gave away as gifts.

Thankfully, all is well in the world now after a judge ruled in favor of Lazio. Reports are that this will put the matter to rest. Finally, Di Canio can get back to what he does best: scoring goals and pissing people off.
