Oh my.

Two words

I don't know. He seems pretty cool. I think I'm gonna tell him about the signature.

[This is an automated response] Are you !@#$ing kidding me?

Hey Joey Spagnino, feed some of that silica to the gerbil. He won't bother you no more.

Domino's Pizza?

I don't know how that's relevant, but his creamery franchise makes very good ice cream.

If you're the KEY, then who's the LO-- oh sh--!

I never made it past little kid rec league, but I scored one very memorable goal. It was an accident, but it made me look like a genius. I got possession of the ball about 15 yards in front of the opponent's goal. My back was to the goal, so I laid it back to a teammate who was sprinting towards me. I saw him really get ready to crank it, so I began to lean back to get out of the way. Too late… the line-drive power shot ricocheted off my head and perfectly into the opposite top corner of the goal. I didn't plan to take credit for it, but my teammates all started congratulating me on the greatest goal they had ever seen and I didn't want to let them down by telling them the truth that I was just trying to avoid getting hit..

My dog's name happens to be Beerball. Actually that's just a part of her name. We call her Billie, but her full legal name is Billie Bluebeerballbarbaloney. That is a fact.

I know, right? I was gonna let that one go, but really that's the saddest soccer criticism I've heard yet. Caste system?

Dear Drayton, Shut your !@#$ing mouth and play football. Thanks a bunch, gringo starr p.s. Mike Vick is a piece of $#!+ and twitter is gay.

Or cue even.

I voted a very big NO. What he did was sick. It was too cruel. And the whole "he made a mistake" argument does not fly. What he did was systematic, over a period of years. I've been a hardcore Bills fan for over 25 years, through a lot of rough times. If Vick is on the roster, I cease to root for the team. Period.

5-0, Mexico. Total defensive collapse in the second half. I don't know what happened, but all of a sudden the back line lost all timing and organization and Mexico was getting breakaways all over the place. This group of second & third string youngsters finally got exposed against a more talented team. I kind of hate that Mexico fans flooded Giants stadium for this and got to celebrate such a huge shutout. I still feel very good about Holden. Beckerman may have earned himself a look for the WC sqaud too. Next month in Mexico City for WC Qualifying will be very different (with the real U.S. National Team).

I have no clue about soccer betting. It's like reading the miscellaneous charges on my phone bill--makes no sense to me.

Thank you, Sven! Awesome report. Stuff like this is just what I need for my Bills withdrawal.

Ya think one day there will be a book called Then Jauron Tentatively Mumbled to Edwards…?

Yes, I suffered some injury to my delicate sensibilities, but I just assumed it was from all the arguing about Skooby and that Dog moron. I had no idea it was this old fartknocker's fault.

I was thinking this was pretty damn cool until I read this at the end of the article... That's just catastrophic! I'm surprised we haven't heard more about this.

Have no fear. Haven't you heard? Forty is the new twelve. Happy Birthday, Kiwi!

Oh, snap!

That's the kind of thing that could make her a regular on the VH1 show.

I guess it's possible that Vick made an impression with his prison record and with speaking privately with the commish. I personally don't buy it, but who knows. I'd like to see for myself, Vick talking about what he's learned. I remember when the accusations first came out, how adamant he was that he had absolutely no involvement in any dog fighting. And he apparently lied right to Goodell's face about it too. Even after he was busted, his whole apology act was a put on. Clearly his only regret was getting caught. Now I'm curious if Vick can string three words together without licking his lips and looking down. If he's a new man, I need to see it for myself.

Team USA looked good tonight. 2-0 victory. On to the finals on Sunday against the winner of Mexico vs. Costa Rica (game going on right now). I'm really excited about the emergence of this Holden kid. I've been watching him closely throughout this tournament--he is no fluke. Like Magox said earlier in this thread, a tourney like this is all about discovering one or two new stars. Holden is a perfect example.
