Hi everybody! What's new?

Not much happening with the national teams right now. The World Cup qualifying is pretty much wrapped up. In Europe, the focus is on the club teams in the early part of their seasons. The MLS playoffs are going on right now. The LA Galaxy, with Donovan and Beckham, play this Sunday against Chivas USA (7:30pm ET on ESPN2). It's game 2 of their match-up (the playoff format is a two game, home and home, aggregate goal series). They tied 2-2 in game one, so this game Sunday will decide who moves on to the conference final. I don't watch MLS very often, but like many sports, they bring it up a notch in the playoffs. And Donovan seems to have raised his level of play in the last year or so. It's fun to watch him work.

I hope you don't mind, I used this line for my sig. I have no idea why.

I'm not clear on the rules of Aussie football. How many points to you get for that?

I really don't get how people are willing to accept this as ok. He tried to gouge his eyes! When Marcus Vick did his foot stomp, it was a huge deal. Yes, I know he already had a ton of issues and it was a last straw situation. But that stuff is nuts. That's not football. That's assault. And eye gouging is much worse in my opinion. Am I crazy?

Oops, the previous 2,720 posts just became irrelevant. Winner = me.

Suspended for just a half?! That's sickening. He should be banned for life.

It's easy to win the Last Post thread.

I actually did not think it was possible for this thread to get any lamer, but the geeky lord of the rings stuff takes it to a new level of insufferability. Hurry, someone, please post after me. I don't want to be the winner of this travesty. Edit: Die, thread die!

Hmmm… I'd expect a little more depth of insight from our hall of fame hero. Stability at QB is good. O-line can do better, especially on the edges. Good D helps the O. Blah blah blah. Dull stuff from the old man.

Victory. Some people will say that Victory is just a crappy movie with Sylvester Stallone, Michael Caine and Pelé. But to me, it's so much more than that. To me, it's special--it means I'm so much better than all you cheap lousy jerks.

Bite me! Bite me!

I just heard that song for the first time in a while and, to my ears, that's exactly what it sounded like he was saying. Anyway, I foresee a bustle in the hedgerow and a spring clean for the May Queen. By the way... oops, I won again.

Nope, unfortunately, as a vegetarian, I am not allowed entry into the state of Texas.

Ok, I'll ask the obvious question: Why are their girlfriends so fat? They're hot shot football players. They should be able to do much better. Maybe the team should have looked at that before. Bunch of underachievers.

Raindrops keep fallin' on my head. But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turnin' red. Cryin's not for me. 'Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complainin'. Because I'm free. Nothin's worryin' me

Eep Op Ork Ah-Ah, that means Judy does some NC-17 style full frontal action.

Definitely the worst decade ever.

I believe Casablanca was an original screenplay. Again, it's not that writers are running out of ideas. It's that douchey executives won't greenlight anything that isn't a pre-packaged cliché.

YIPPEEEEE!

Who will dare post under me? (or should I say, "b'low me")
