That line from the father's song in Mary Poppins, where he's going on about how nothing can go wrong, in Britain in 1910.  That's about the point I realized the boy was gonna die in a trench.

Yes, because English football hooligans are peaceful, jolly blokes.

No, you misunderstand.  I'm laughing at American sports entirely.

Carry on.


Though it's come to my attention recently that the less violent a sport is in the states, the more violent the fans are. Baseball fans are more likely to trash a city after a loss (or win) than hockey fans, who usually will give a light jab and go, "Hey, good game, eh?"

I think that is global, though it only seems to apply to team sports.
There are very few checkers hooligans.

Now I want to see a cricket riot. Or a polo riot. Or a Kentucky Derby riot.

Egads! may it be that we cannot reduce this to a single dimension?? UNACCEPTABLE!

Speaking of crickets, that's all I seem to hear these days when I listen for the sounds of people talking shit about the Seahawks. :lulz:

Some yahoo yelled at me, saying 'GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH', and I thought, "I'm feeling generous today.  Why not BOTH?"

Yeah, yeah.

Hope you kick the shit out of the Broncos.

I'm going for the Seahens, but I did enjoy the silence this weekend....and Belichick firing off that Welker deliberately tried to hurt Talib.  :lulz:

Yeah. And people are talking about Richard Sherman being black classless. Belichick is so far out of line it's ridiculous. And he doesn't have the heat of the moment as an excuse.

It's fairly out of character for him, which makes me think the trade at the beginning may have been more personal than economic.

There's also that without Talib, Thomas got 105 yards.  Not that the offense was doing that hot, but the defense pretty much collapsed after Talib got hurt.

I'm still going to blind the world with my Buccaneerness this weekend during the garb challenge that I entered.



When the challenger said she was doing the throwback Patriots logo as the Lewis chess set berserker, I knew that I could turn myself into a walking female version of Bucco Bruce.

Well, that was certainly satisfying.  Nothing like three hours of watching the Manning Pout.

I was really hoping for a shutout, but you can't have everything, right?

Sweet jesus, I'M picking Seahawks as a Superbowl contender this year and they weren't even on my radar 2 years ago.

Team's fucking solid.


Pats played an ugly game today, though. If they end up a weak team this year I'm actually not opposed to it because that division needs some LIFE.
