You can have him back. Dirty stinkin Judas: I feel dirty just knowing he now lives in the tri-state area.
The Mo Johnston "Judas" controversy—perhaps the biggest incident of soccer fans totally overreacting in the 20th century.
I was talking last night to someone about Mo coming to Metro, and he told me "Great...now all the pretend/part-time Celtic Fans can start their "Judas Coont" chanting immediately." At least I know Tommy to be hardcore Celtic...but that stuff really sounds ridiculous from guys who couldn't tell you who Celtic played last week or will play this week. You know who you are.
My favorite Celtic is Robert Parrish. My favorite Ranger is Ed Giacomin. See, it's easy to like both teams.
Congrats on adding Mo to the Metros staff. Johnston brings a fine resume to your club and I'm sure Mo will prove to be a valuable addition. Mo Johnston and Matt McKeon were fast friends on the Wizards for many years and I suspect Mr McKeon may soon be a Metro.
Nice to know you aint a dead sumumabitch in a ditch somewheres sick bhoy. You know I feel yer anti anglicized Mo angst, and tho' I have to admit that back in '98 when Fearless Mc Allister had the effing nerve to pick up Mo in our fantasy league draft while sitting in The Blarney Castle, for crying out loud.... well, at the time I was shocked, floored, nauseous and embarrassed that a die hard bhoy and member in good standing of the NY Celtic Supporters Club would stoop to selecting the Benedict Hun for a measly 8-10 fantasy points. If ya really wanna get brass taxi about it, seeing Richard Goff romping in my Swampy backyard was always a good bit harder to take anyway, because I actually SAW him putting his boot into downed Celtic players. And he always acted like this league was beneath him even as he cashed MLS checks. But ya know wha? Over time, seeing picts of Mo-esha running around in the ridic Wiz clown suit, looking more like a low rent K.C. Ronald McDonald than a former SPL bad man, and years of stick giving to Crooklyn Celtic Kev about that ignominious draft day, well, lets just say its damn hard to take Mo seriously anyMo. At least no Mo so, than a Mo Chi Mehn Hasbro action figure. Mo, methinks, is a hasbeen. A completely strip mall emasculated, seven layer burritoed, girl drink drunk of epic Amerk ex-pat proportions. About as dangerous as yer garden variety Barra del Cactus. If he helps make our players better and fight with the effort demanded of professionals elsewhere, I think I can deal.
I don't know if you are serious or if perhaps you are not familiar with the phrase. "passed over" is an idiom in English that has nothing to do with height or references to being short. It is used when an employee does not get a promotion. http://www.careermarketing.com/content/list.content/page_13-104.html
Someone forgot to turn on his Sarcasm-o-Meter I was kidding. All this talk of Tab, Mo and ABMOD have me pulling hoping for some A-list material on short jokes.
