That 50 year old granmda is hot. No way she is 50. No way. ....Your 6 year old says things like "That was brilliant shot"....or "This is from a really dangerous spot"...or "Uh oh. Corner Kick. This is going to be dangerous"....or "The keeper had no chance at that" or "stupid referee"...or he is sitting at the breakfast table yelling "Black-Burn Ro-vers. Bang....bang...bangbangbang" and banging on the table. My son has no idea what Preist Holmes looks like or who Shaq is - but he can pick out Frank Lampard and Damien Duff and Kasey Keller in a split second ....or your 3 year old scores a goal whle playing mini air hockey and yells "Gooalll. Twelmannn!!" If both my sons don't make the US national team - I am going to be bummed.
Except for the fact that as Canadians we didn't have to shell out $20/match during the Euro 2004 like the suckers in the USA, instead getting all matches live on basic cable service, TSN same goes for last years Rugby World Cup!
Whopeeee Rugby. No thanks. I went to college in the Buffalo area, I know how good it is to be a Canadian couch potato. Hockey Night in Canada, Don Cherry, Curling, coverage of ALL Olympic sports ( I was in Calgary/Vancouver for 1996 Olympics - Great coverage, except for Donovan Bailey - enough already), Molson wakeup calls for Nagano Olympic hockey games. All good. Live Euro games is a problem, especially with a World Cup game coming up. Those are on during the day when I am working, these 12:00 and 2:00 pm games are a problem getting out of work. Oh well, I post on this board, I will figure out a way
... If you come up to a busy intersection and say, "Oh, danger here." ... If you have ever used the term, "Maximum Soccer." ... If you are not married, yet the phrase, "DebtFree saved my life, and my marriage," pops into your head. ... If you say, "Thanks" to the TV, when Max Bretos welcomes you to our planet. ... If you step on the scale, find that you have gained 3 pounds and your first thought is, "Diet failure is not my fault." ... If you feel the quality of FSW Report immediately goes down hill if you turn it on and Michelle Lissel isn't one of the anchors. (Quick aside - they said last night she was producing the show instead of anchoring! Good for her, but I hope that doesn't become a trend). (Quick aside II - during the opening last night, JSL said they would have "Maximum Soccer" coming soon and Mitch Peacock let out an unenthusiastic, and hilarious, "Oh .. Boy.") ... If you live in the States and you let out a mean cackle when FSW Report promos an upcoming TV game and it's for "American viewers only." ... If you saw the commerical where Alan Hopkins, Max Bretos, Christian Miles and Nick Webster danced. And you weren't frightened.
That's a "Fox Sports World FORUM" addiction sign there. something I find myself doing... ....saying "you damn right!" whenever the announcer says "you're watching FOX SPORTS WORLD".
Comedy gold. And I actually was frightened by the Hopkins dancing. I don't know how anyone couldn't be.
... if... because... ummm what was the question? i'm sorry, i'm distracted because the replay of newell's old boys v banfield is on
...you were really geeked to score "exclusive" interviews with JSL, Bobby and Michelle for your website, www.arsenalamerica.com.
You can still recite the scripts for the D-Snore and Enter-X commercials, even though they have been banned from sale in the US for more than a couple of years.
I concur Servotron. I was reading these posts to my girlfriend last night. I think we ought to start a thread similar where we replace Fox Sports World with Big Soccer. Servotron, hands down you have the best avatar on the BigSoccer.
That might be another sign you're addicted to FSW Feel free to use the avatar, it's a campaign after all!
...you named your son Max, but weren't really sure why you chose that name... ...you say to your three year old (rememberhim from the first post)..."Max, what does Christiano Ronaldo do?" ... and he proceeds to high-step in place before falling over in the floor.
really? damn, I am waking up earlier now. And that 50 year old give a new meaning to GILF. Finally you know you watch to much when you think, If I pull the trigger on Osama, do I get the 25 million dollars or do I get a medal? I am alone on that one?
Top Shelf guys! the first thread here in which I've read every post! Sublime! (ps - and for me: ...phrases like "top shelf," "top form" and "spot on" become a reflex. ...while watching a Steelers game you realize, "these commentators SUCK!" ...you wish FSW's commercials were like Sportscenter's. ...if you're looking for detergent at the supermarket and ask for "eye-yax.")
...You want to get the complete extended version to the guitar riff that's played at the start of all EPL games. To you this is BETTER than the Monday Night Football intro theme (not talking about the drunk's reworked version of "All My Rowdy Friends").
That is awesome! I need to get a kid and teach them tricks like that. Christiano is the only reason I can't really cheer for ManU. (don't know if I support the name Max, though) Here's mine... You're addicted if... --you're single, but you have to get to bed early on Friday nights so that you can wake up for the 7:30 EPL match. --your fingers instinctively punch in 267 on the remote when you turn on the tv. --That Football Friday intro is stuck in your head. " 'Ello! 'Ello! Fox Football Friday!" --you're somewhat OK watching a football show that resembles Wayne's World. --you want to see the alternate endings to the Army spot (do they ever get to eat?).
-- you've configured your cable box to automatically power on to Fox Sports World eliminating those three unnecessary keystrokes
