That's why I don't go into MLS General.

That thread is in the running for the all-time dumbest thread starts.
:D

I know.

Clan is a jackass.

No he has an MLS Cup MVP award and a ring.
In similarly current events, your grandmother must've been hot stuff before electricity.

I've had way too short of a fuse lately.
My condolences to all the ladies who submit a NVG D request form and have it approved.

I wonder if the irony of him being a mod on an American soccer board has ever entered his head.

Pretty strong words from a guy who associates himself with a guy who died in the 1500's.

How can a thread be named after the biggest tool in MLS? I hate Joe Cannon.
I like Joe Cannon. When I went to the USWNT-San Jose doubleheader at Spartan in 2000, he came up into the Sam's Army/Casbah during the women's game and hung out with us. He was the only guy there in a suit and tie. :)

So I say boooooo to you.

This is mostly for hang, but I'm sure others can appreciate it, too. Stephanie and I went to 5:00 Mass today; that's not our normal Mass, but we went tonight for various reasons. Anyway, we had a visiting priest, a guy originally from a small Italian city. He was here to talk about a program within the Church he helped start called From Mission to Mission, an organization that helps missionaries integrate back into society when they return from their missions, as well as helping them take what they've learned and experienced and integrate it into their vocations.

He told the story about a priest that visiting his city when he was ten-years-old. That priest brought with him postcards he purchased when on a mission in Africa. The young boy - today's priest - was completely enthralled, and decided that when he was old enough he wanted to go to Africa to "see the lions, really." Eventually the young boy - today's priest - is ordained and serves numerous missions to Africa, including Uganda.

While in Uganda, today's priest ends up working with the priest who visited his city those years ago, the priest who inspired him to become a priest and a missionary. They work together and feel blessed to cross paths, almost as if it were meant to be. One day soldiers come from nowhere and - well, no details from today's priest - take his mentor and inspiration away and kill him when he refuses to renounce his faith and his involvement with certain rebel groups (at least that involvement was hinted...).

He also saw other martyrs, too, he said. I couldn't imagine seeing anything like that, no matter your station in life, and trying to go about the rest of your life.

Man, I wish I was at this Mass. That's incredible.

[Own Goal Hat-Trick]

damn, i feel great today.

Agreed.

Probably seemed a bit dusty in the church.

[monster]

well, true, in theory there is no greater douchebaggery than his, however, surely there is some form of douchebaggerism that he employs that is currently not known to science, and appropriately would be mind fellating in its sheer gargantuan proportions.

No, there is the douchebaggery from fans of a team that hasn't won jackshit and has to project their inadequacy on real winners. :D

[monster]

Gotcha.

Yeah, a smoke is good in that situation, too, but a beer gives a good 15-20 minutes for people to show up.

One beer?

:p
