Four down for the month…

Well…as you can see, I’m four down for the month and am running out of days to catch up so there is going to have to be some cheating to make the goal…so, let’s get started….the Wings are just disappointing me with the late game collapses that they have been doing all season…probably won’t make the playoffs for the first time since I was much, much younger…not getting excited about the super bowl…might watch some of it for the ads but it will be home here and not out…need to be able to flick through channels and can’t do that if I’m watching with anyone…even Man U is stinking up the place this year and maybe it is good that I haven’t been able to watch them this year…would just be angry all the time with the lack of effort…and why wouldn’t you put in effort if they are paying you millions every year? I wonder if they don’t have any pride…I’m sure I’d leave it all on the field if they were paying me all that cash….hmmmm…okay, need to go start lunch but I do have another one for early aft about religion and how it is being used as a weapon even against middle schoolers…

USA, USA, USA…

Man….what a heart-stopping match between Algeria and the USA….and Donovan wins it in stoppage time. I couldn’t stand just sitting here so I went over to the local Mexican place to watch with some of the guys over there…the only other soccer fans I know so that was fun….even had lunch…great Mexican food at Cabana Tres Amigos…go there some time..yummy. As soon as the US scored I got a call from my daughter in Chicago checking to make sure I didn’t have a heart attack. England won, too, so her husband will be happy that they got through….I’m smiling….
