    If Gooch wants the window, Gooch gets the window. Rock-paper-scissors be damned.

    I heard from a reliable source that the headwinds over the Atlantic shifted abruptly this morning forcing the jet stream south of the planned rout...i have a feeling arrival time will be about 15 minutes later than expected.

    Ha, I couldn't see the pic for some reason, so I was going to ask if it was Kicking and Screaming. The HTML code shows up on my reply, and... yes it is Kicking and Screaming! Great minds...

    That would be hilarious if they tortured them with soccer movies during the entire flight.

    Mean Machine (actually one of my favorites, maybe gives an insight into Keller's mind)
    Victory (haven't seen it, but I'm assuming it's bad)
    Air Bud: World Pup (Landy's favorite, "Look, Landy. Puppies!")
    Ladybugs (Rodney deserves "no respect" for this one)
    Our Way (They can all have a good laugh at the Goose, and the Germany handball will reignite their anger, and they can see how much Landon's hairline has receded)
    History of Football: The Beautiful Game (Lots of info about Ghana, Italy, and some Czech Rep. Also some great quotes from a fat sweaty Maradona, aka The anti-Pele)
    Bend It Like Beckham (Mmmmm. Keira Knightley)

    I heard Mr. Eko was Gooch's real father.

    Heard they're on the the Luftansa business jet from Newark to Dusseldorf. Pretty sweet ride with business/first only. Couple grand a seat. Sad I know this.

    I was thinking more along the lines of this:

    And just for giggles, what if the plane drifts off course and crashes in the Alps? Who gets eaten first? At first I was thinking Hahnemann, since he has a lot of meat on his bones and probably is a little more soft and tender than Onyewu. But then I figured O'Brien would be the first to kick the bucket so he'd become the initial post-flight snack.

    Isn't that what we do on BigSoccer half the time? :)

    BTW, love the new Emmanuelle Chriqui avatar. She was awesome in 100 girls.

    Thanks for the link. Does anyone else think that the "playing soccer in odd places" bit is a little overdone? These ad agencies need to use their imaginations. I mean I don't know what else they could do, but that's what they're paid for.

    Dempsey and Johnson almost missed the flight, as they couldn’t get through the metal detectors.

    The entrance was in the middle of the plane, and, looking for their seats, Bobby automatically went forward. DaMarcus nervously poked around for a while right in the aisle, before going towards the back.

    Kasey was fined by the FAA for inciting the team to sing the jingle of a competing airline.

    The plane was having engine troubles until Marcus got out his toolbox and fixed it.

    Jimmy Conrad seemed throughout the day to be mumbling incoherently, the only thing that could be made out was that he seemed to be addressing someone named “Barney”.

    Josh Wolff had the jetway all lined up, but somehow managed to miss it.
