A Relaxing Sunday
Just taking it easy on this end. Needed a break from blogging and we found one of the more relaxing pursuits known to mankind, aside from drowning worms while scaring fish:
Yes, we are among the small minority of Americans that follow World Cup Football - soccer to the rest of you. We suspect that this is one of the few things we have in common with Lefty. Sure, the USA has a snowball's chance in hell, but we still follow the Blackhawks, so we have a history of supporting losing teams. We just don't spend money on them like Cubs fans. Watched Mexico manhandle the Iranians today. Watched England pull a win out of their asses. Watched Poland go down in flames and parts of other games. Looking forward to Team USA playing tomorrow. Anyone else following the games?

When you all are at work guess where Fat Sam and Jody are...call before going home early !!
This is America.There is only one "football", thats NFL you eurofags.
Sorry to inform you but the final world cup game draws a world wide audience of over a billion people in comparson to 40 million for a superbowl.
Overpayed thugs. Walter Payton had chunks of these guys playing today in his stool.
Lots of clues to SCC's identity with this post.
1. He likes soccer.
2. He follows the Blackhawks
3. He was off during the times of the soccer match to help you determine his watch/DOG. Keep collecting data such as this and you too will soon discover SCC's identity.
Just confirms what I already know. I would confront SCC with my knowledge of him but I dont want him to know who I am if I choose to out him.
Out him or shut the fuck up!
I hear SCC also buys skin products from Avon! Hence the reason for HER youthful, silky skin!!
...smells good, too!
Is anyone going to go to the new Bridgeview Chicago Fire stadium for a game or two? Looks like fun!!
WOW .... Soccer....I can't believe how much fun it can be....I'd rather get kicked in my nuts !!
Wide-spread riots throughout the city!!! The Rush are world champs!!! Ditka did it 20YRS later.....
soccer is a commie plot; only communists play this game. America is Baseball & football
Back off you red scourge
Then why does the entire Cuban National Team play MLB? And football wasn't at all ripped off from rugby. Don't tell me...generation X started these two sports. No? Then, they made them the best! All the great juicers of these sports are X's. Thanks for making them what they are.
I spent a year in Iraq and you're not far off. The answers to questions came right off Douglas Blvd. It was funny to see human nature in action. People are the same everywhere. It was funnier to see the active duty soldiers reaction to answers like:
These aren't my pants.
That's not my identification (spitting image photo).
I just found it (AK 47).
I was waiting for the bus (standing 300 meters from an IED with cell phone in hand and no bus route).
This is my uncle's car. I just borrowed it to go to the store(carbomb that failed to detonate).
I just came out of my house.
You're just doing this because I'm Muslim.
My favorite was the mother of 3 who said she didn't know the male who was sleeping in bed with her. Their wedding photo was on the wall 10 feet away. Shitheads are shitheads everywhere.

WOW SOCCER!!!! I'D RATHER HAVE A FUCKING KIDNEY STONE THAN WATCH A BUNCH OF EURO FUCKING TRASH KICK THE SHIT OUT OF A WHITE BALL. I THINKS THAT RASCIST, A WHITE BALL. ARE THEY REALLY USING THE WHITE BALL AS A METAPHOR FOR THE WHITE MAN? THAT'S IT, ALL SOCCER FANS ARE ANTI WHITE.

And I'll bet that you're a Cubs fan, too, aren't you?
I liked it better when lefty stayed away! Absence doesnt make the heart grow fonder.
I'm a fan of WorldCup soccer too. The players leave their clubs and go play for their national teams. They are representing their countries and typically play with alot of heart and pride.
Soccer fans are true fanatics. Andre Escobar was murdered by a disgruntled fan because Escobar deflected a goal into the net during a match between Colombia and team USA. The gunman allegedly yelled "Goal!" each time he fired a shot into Escobar.
It was nice to see Iran get dumped by Mexico yesterday. We'll never forget what they did to our guys at the US embassy. I can't watch the Mexican clubs usually (Cruz Azul, Pumas, Atlas) - they are awfully boring. They play more defensively and there's not alot of action. The euro clubs are much more exciting.
I hope the US team can make it to the end but they're not likely get very far. Donovan and McBride are good players but may not be enough to carry the team. It will probably come down to Germany, Sweden, Brazil and Argentina in the finals.
And there is an element of International soccer that parallels US Baseball. The euro clubs have hooligans. Those boastful, drunken youths who scream profanities, show off their tattoos and then beat, punch, kick and stab fans of other clubs. Europe has their hooligans.
In the US they're known as White Sox fans.
10:00:01 Typical Scub Fan Mentality--No wonder you're a soccer fan---
:-) If it takes FOREVER!
ha..ha...
Flipping channels and came across the end of the USA / Czech match. Watched a little bit while the USA lost 3 - zip. MAN IS THAT THE BOORINGEST SPORT EVER INVENTED. Its easier to watch paint dry.
It was forty years ago when as a ten-year-old in the fifth grade I changed from a wide eyed, innocent child, to a miserable bitter fucking adult. Here's my story in essence, and not verbatim: Living one block from my Catholic school I drooled whenever I watched the seventh and eight grade boys football team marching past my house on the way to a practice at Greenbaum Park, or on Saturday mornings, to a game. I knew I was just one more year away from playing tackle football on the grade school team myself. But as my hero's marched past in helmets and shouldedr pads I was unaware of rumblings that would soon undermine the intermural football program and dash my dreams. It seemed that the school board (I didn't know Catholic schools had school boards, the nuns seemed competent enough, certainly mean enough, to run the school without meddling) was working hard to dismantle the intermural football program. They succeeded a year later and replaced football with soccer, the national game of landscapers and homosexuals. So what happened? Politics, of course. Apparently certain pre-menopausal mothers with castrated husbands who had an in to the nuns feared their fucking runt sons would be eaten alive by their classmates, including your author who was still twenty years away from a tact team, or not be able to play at all. So that was it. Oh, and we had a tennis team, too! Another girls game! Fuck soccer, fuck school boards, fuck people who only got on the job because the height requirement was eliminated to hire the Incas. But dissappointment early in life is necessary to help one develop coping skills that will enable the adult to overcome tragedies like meritorious promotions, Jazzercise at the Police Academy, a no pursuit policy, etc. It all started with soccer. I'm not sure where it will end.
WOW Ive been watching this soccer for ten minutes already and its so zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
