Ariel Graziani (deservedly so)
Chris Klein (what?)
Jason Kreis (he's earned it)
Joselito Vaca (commish pick)
Those are mostly good picks. Klein has 6 goals from midfield. The two picks I disagree with are Cannon (not taking anything away from him, but Rimando has been shelled all season long and has been ridiculous) and Etcheverry. El Diablo has done a lot for MLS, but he hasn't done that much this year. Bobby Convey has been our best field player by far.

Me: (Laughing) Nah, I haven't even seen him yet.
Peter: Oh, well I told him to avoid you.
Me: Oh ok.

What did he say?
+ Well Jason, the BBC is reporting that Gazza is really coming now. After her trains with them three times and takes in a game, he'll decide if he likes them enough, apparently.
My one man crusade is in dire straits.
Honestly...he'll last 1 or 2 seasons tops. If Etcheverry doesn't retire, they'll both be upset at having to share the spotlight. If he does, we'll be totally restructuring the team to compensate one old man.
I'd much rather the team look for a younger playmaker type to replace Etcheverry if/when he retires. People suggest Convey, but honestly he's shown more ability on the left than in the middle. Gazza is a stopgap, and a costly one.

If he bases it on watching a game, then there's a damn good chances he'll run away in fright.
So there's hope then?

Perhaps my decree needs rethinking.
Moreno's car is the best. Etcheverry drives a Mercedes sedan (I think). I saw Chino driving by once. I think he was driving a Daewoo. What the hell is up with that?
League minimum salary at work.

-High in Crofton today: 104. With humidy, about 120. Nice.
-Some redneck idiot was trying his hardest to go through the in door at Kmart earlier. I would have laughed, but he looked pissed and ready to fight.
-They also moved the condoms into a locked case. There's a sign explaining that the frequency of condom theft forced this move. I couldn't help but laugh.
-So far, ebay has made me $96.50 gross.

The photocopy thing made me think of the beer commercial where the girl is leaning over the photocopier trying to grab something and is squishing her breasts on it and some random guy sees and thinks she's photocopying herself. This reminds me of a Pocky commercial. (Pocky is a Japanese snackfood...cracker sticks dipped in chocolate.) Man and a woman are in a office. The man is making some copies and the woman is waiting for her turn. While his stuff is being copied, the man nibbles on some Pocky. When his stuff is done copying, the man puts the Pocky on a shelf above the copier, grabs his papers and leaves. Well, the woman decides she wants some Pocky, but the shelf is too high for her to reach. So to get to it she has to climb on top of the copier. Then the man remembers that he left something and goes back. Meanwhile, the woman inadvertantly turns the copier on. The man returns to see her kneeling on the copier, appearing to make photocopies of upskirt panty shots of herself.

I'm pretty sure it will be replayed at 7:00 tonight...story started 5 mins into the show.Is that the one with fish that could survive on land for three days and Steven Colbert was going to napalm the place if his predator introduction plan didn't work out?
That was some funny shiznit.

I saw that too. Hilarious. I liked Colbert's idea to get rid of them. Throw a bunch of pirahnas in the ponds and lakes. Then scatter thousands of African scorpions around the lakes to get the ones that crawl out. Then bring in lots of owls to get rid of the scorpions then bring in African condors to get rid of the owls. Then napalm them all.Guess it was. :D

I think it was about how that speedskater guy was going to go home and eat his dog. Korea really would be doing the world a favour if they beat Jay Leno down.

Hey, at least they care enough to use condoms. After all, they could be stealing saran wrap or something.
+ I really don't get what's so great about the Talking Heads.
+ Is anyone else amused by this whole male/female thing in regards to computer cords?

Yes it was. I love that Crofton's proudest moment was met by the Daily Show with a suggestion to obliterate the whole place.

I would enjoy this. Perhaps they could have Letterman do PBP.

Good point. I'm glad the condom thieves have at least kept Crofton from becoming an STD cesspool.
+ I really don't get what's so great about the Talking Heads.
They're scrumtrilescent is all.

Now that you mention it...yes.
-Silence of the Lambs...solid.
-I used this Nivea (for men, it emphasizes) after shave gel that claimed to be unscented but isn't. Now I smell like a swarthy middle-aged man, courting young women because he sucked when he was their age.
-I can smell it, anyway. How do people who use that much cologne live with themselves?
-I finished 4th in Holland after FC Twente scored with their last kick of the season to keep their 1 point advantage over me. I still have the Dutch Cup final, though I'm missing Christian Chivu (injured), Carlos Bocanegra (red card suspension), and Tim de Cler (injury that may heal in time), all starters in my back four. On the other hand, I've gone 9 straight games without a loss. Plus, Feyenoord is my bitch this year even though they won the league.
-Milan won the UEFA Cup. That was cool.
-Swarthy.

Make that a 2 man crusade. I ain't happy at all.
--I'd like to see the league minimum at $40K but of course that would funk everything else up and move all salaries up and the league would go out of business and that would suck. But at least gazza wouldn't have a job
--GI Joe on Cartoon Network is the best thing ever. Now that they're adding He-man I don't know what I'll do. Probably pray for the Tranformers next.
--Again Gazza=Boo
--I think I'm gonna order a few new books (that book about a season at Verona, Barca and a book about West Ham's Inter-City Firm)
--And in conclusion Boo=Gazza

- Gazza's coming to the States? Hide the booze.
- Here's why my neighbors are friggin' idiots:
I share a house with these freaky God people. They're like hippies who love Jesus, and they're utterly clueless about how things work, i.e. breathing etc. So we've been having some problems with water pressure and hot water in the house, so I finally broke down and called the plumber. He has to get into the basement, of course, which is where my God lovin' neighbors live. So I go down there over the weekend to let them know that we need access to the basement for the plumber today. They say no problem and they'd leave their door unlocked. Fine. So I go down there last night to remind them, and they say great they will. So my fiancee sees them this morning in the driveway and they talk about the plumber coming and the impending joy of normal hot water. So I go downstairs to open everything up for the plumber AND THE GODDAMN DOORS ARE LOCKED!!!!!! I'm so pissed off I can't stand it. I'm going to tear them a new, God-sized ********************* when they get back. Stupid asshuffers.

Jason:
As you can see, UConn plays Maryland October 12th at the Joe Morrone Soccer Stadium in Storrs. There will be time for smack talk later, but if you wish to attend the match, you are more than welcome to crash on my couch, eat my food, and watch your Terps lose. You may not want to stand next to me at the match, for I am the most evil SOB you've ever met at a match. But the offer is there.

Good news: I finally got my signed US National Team jersey back from the frame shop and it is BADASS! I've got the signature of EVERY US player on the WC roster, as well as Bruce Arena and Chris Armas. Plus I've got my three ticket stubs from the US first round games, with pictures of each stadium. Needless to say, it's the coolest thing in the world...thereby making me the coolest guy in the world. I'll try to get a picture up sometime.
Bad news: I ordered 4 CD's off the net. According to the tracking number, they were delivered on Sat morning. But they aren't on my apartment's porch, and they aren't in the apartment office either. I think some jackass stole them. There was a big pool party at my apartments last weekend, so I'm sure some complete jackass is now listening to my RJD2 CD saying "what the hell is this crap." Or going to the CD store and selling my DJ Z-Trip CD (only 1000 pressed) and getting $3 for it. UGGGH!
Plus the Robert Randolph show that I want to go see tomorrow night might be sold out. I have to call them this afternoon.
"tomorrow may never come...for you and me, life is not promised"
Plus the Turkish dude that sits in the office behind my cube is an absolute FREAK. I'll spare you the details, but the chances of me randomly walking up to him and pummeling him are very good right now.
Yeah, so not really in a good mood.

Hasn't life taught you that it's easier to jump to conclusions before you ever meet a person?

If life hasn't, then BS should have. :D
Not sure why but I am having the same attitude towards the new El Sal guy. Must be my old age.
