-I could go for a nice cool XX right about now.
-That reminds me...Lenny has my beer. The problem is that I don't know how or when to get a hold of him...he works in a liquor store near here, but I don't know how to get there or if he would even be there.
-Someone bring me beer. I'll pay you back.

Sounds very fair. I'll make sure to bring money rather than my usual poverty.

Hristo has not been a failure. At his very least, he's been a teacher to Beasley, who has come along faster than anyone ever thought he would. Helping to create the American youth players of the future almsot makes Stoitchkov worth his bench sitting. And if he gets playing time in this season, gravy! Lothar was a waste, as was Zenga, don't put Hristo in that category.

Zenga was by far MLS's biggest failure. He wasn't that good in goal, and was quite awful as a coach. Mattheus actually helped the metro************ers avoid another 7-25 season. It was his tactical suggestions before he went off to that island that made the metros somewhat less awful.

"Uh...I don't know enough Spanish to know what you just said."

"No comprende."

an email i got from my sister.
Welcome to Illinois
Don't order steak or pasta primavera at Denny's. It's a diner. They
serve breakfast 24 hours a day. Let them cook something they know.
If you upset the cooks in the kitchen they will kick your ass.
Don't laugh at the names of our little towns (Sandwich, St.Elmo, Gays,
Reddick, Dongola, Dupo, Ashkum, Boody, Farmer City, etc.) or we will
just
have to kick your ass.
Don't order a can or bottle of soda here. It is called pop. Accept it.
Doing otherwise can lead to an ass kicking.
We know our heritage. Most of us are more literate than you are. We
are also better educated and generally a lot nicer. Don't refer to
us as Midwesterners. We are from Illinois and we can kick your ass.
We have plenty of business sense. We have to make a living here. We
admit
to small lapses in judgment from time to time, but we are not dumb
enough to
let someone move to our state just to run for the senate. If someone
tried
to do that we would kick her ass.
Don't laugh at our cornfields or our Lincoln Log home. Anything that
inspires tourists to buy 50,000 post cards can't be bad. And in Chicago
don't point and laugh at the sculptures or we will kick your ass.
We are fully aware of how cold it gets here in the winter; so shut the
hell
up. Just spend your money and get the hell out of here or we will kick
your
ass.
Don't order the fruit plate for dessert. Order a steak and a potato or
pizza
for dinner and then have cheesecake or we will kick your ass.
Don't try to fake a Chicago accent. We don't have an accent. If you say
we
do then we will kick your ass.
Don't talk to us about how much better things are where you came
from because we know better. Many of us have visited big city hellholes
like Detroit, Cleveland, New York, Philadelphia, and Los Angeles. If
you don't like it here, O'Hare is ready when you are. Move your ass
on home before it gets kicked.
Don't complain that Illinois is flat and that there are not enough
trees. If
you whine about our scenic beauty we will kick your ass all the way
back to
San Francisco.
Pronouncing the 's' at the end of Illinois is not funny. Doing it, will
get
your ass kicked.
Last, but not least, DO NOT DARE to come here and tell us Chicago is
full of
gangsters. This will get your ass shot (right after it is kicked).
Just mention this and you will be wearing cement shoes in the bottom of
the
Chicago River.
Now then welcome to Illinois, enjoy your visit, spend your money and
then go
home.

Soda.
I am tempted to get into it with Illinois, just due to my "Maryland vs. Everyone" way of thinking.
Not to say that it wasn't funny. :)

We use neither soda nor pop where I come from. We refer to it as either "soft drinks" or a "coke" regardless of the fact of whether or not it is a coke. Kind of like the generic use of xerox or ziplock eventhough those are brandnames.
Wow. I used neither/nor, either/or, and whether or not all in the same post :D

god i love these people.
for some reason, they remind me of the dude who shot at a hellicopter landing in a residential neighborhood (to pick up some fat cat CEO or something) with an assault rifle because he thought they were "terrorists"
(ok fine, they dont remind me of that, i just wanted to throw that in there)
solid.
You know, it's really quite sad. Last Saturday, it was almost crouded. I wish there were more SJE fans here in the bay area. It's disgusting, look at this convo I had with my friend's ex last Friday:
Him: So what are you doing this weekend?
Me: I'm hanging out in downtown San Jose, then I'm going to a soccer game.
Him: Oh, are you playing?
Me: No, it's a San Jose Earthquakes game.
Him: Oh-what kind of team are they? College soccer?
Me: No, they're MLS.
Him: What's MLS?
Me: (frustrated) MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER...it's not that hard to figure out.
Him: Oh, well they must have formed after I left Los Altos last year.
Me: Um, were you raised in a barn?
Him: What?!
Me: They've been around a while as The Clash, then they changed their name to the Earthquakes like one or two years ago.
Him: Clash? That's a funny name.
Me: It's a hell of a lot better than what you could come up with.
Him: Now that was harsh.
Me: Yeah, so is the fact that you claim to be into California sports.

Which is true - Stoichkov has been invaluable off the field, I agree. On it, though, he's been useless.

This is fair, though he's had his occasional moment of glory.
Of course, the last one I remember is that bomb against DC his first year in the league.

i'm sore all over, and to top it off i screamed and danced and sang my lungs out tonight. my throat hurts and i gave myself a headache, but i had fun to spite the bastards who are just sheetheads in the fort these days.
i got the rev army to sing with me when some of the riders were like "why are you even singing, jeez, we suck, just be quiet" and i was like "no, don't sing if you don't wanna, but i am!" and so i was singing and monty is all like "no one else ************in will" all bitchy like, so then the rev army guys join in and i turn around and flash them a million dollar smile, give them a huge "you rock, thanks SOOOOO MUCH!!!" and had them all smiling and singing with me.

i hurt ~sigh~ ah well. it was fun.. stress headaches aren't fun though. you know?

So "you only sing when you're winning" applies up there?
That sucks. I feel bad for anyone like you who wants to actually get behind the team. The loudest people in Foxboro when I was there that were supporting the Revs were those 3 little girls.

unfortunately, it seems the answer is yes at times... although i did get the rev army going for a good while, and then we rested and then i had them singing again later, cos i like some of *their* songs, so i was like "sing that one that goes like... 'from the halls of foxboro stadium'" and they did! w00t!
damn cool, i tell ya! :D
