  1. If he can be convinced that a guaranteed first team starting role every week with Villa will benefit his club and country future more than a part time role with those other clubs (Doubt he'd go to Turkey)...then he's ours. Big if though...
  2. Bruins! The 3rd goal was an instant classic- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BJ7L7V7B4o
  3. They chose wisely to not play any music while the credits rolled, for added effect. Top marks HBO
  4. I'm sure it doesn't hurt...Villa must have a pretty positive profile in Bulgaria, despite the last several year's results.
  5. Of course he strained his groin in the process....
  6. Spoilers from last night's episode. Well worth watching if you are up to date or don't give a shit about Game of Thrones. I love the one with 4 people on the sofa, and 2 of them have clearly read the books
  7. Amazing that the ending overshadows the two other very pivotal developments...I wish this was like a weekly serial that ran 52 weeks a year! Villaajax, it's nothing like that crap, by the way. I hate all that vampire shit too. GoT is dude-friendly
  8. GoT beats The Wire for pure escapism...The Wire was more challenging to watch, because it made you think... But you cannot deny that this phenomenon is brilliant television.
  9. Whoops, guilty...
  10. Fearless television... not sure how much everything is deviating from the books, and I don't care. GoT is beginning to challenge The Wire for "Best Show Ever"....
  11. The '98 WC was there for the taking, and England had as good a chance as any.
  12. probably because I haven't worn mine yet. but when I do... ...you'll also be wearing a Manchester United shirt? And Lakers shorts 'Doh!
  13. The England team would do well if more top players played in other leagues around Europe. As it stands now, they are too insular in their approach. The geezer in charge isn't helping either...

    Syria

    I'd get in and out of Athens as quickly as possible. I was there in 1992, and it was a dangerous shithole.

    Drugs

    Cannabis being dangerous has become a bit of a self fulfilling prophecy. It's become a victim of its legal status and been bred unscrupulously to make some freakishly strong strains. The difference between the Moroccan/Soap Bar of 20 odd years ago and the AK47/Bogbubbles of now is enormous. It's a bit like comparing a pint of beer to a pint of scotch. Yup, depending on the person, it can be devastating. It can transform you into a complete zombie. Like any mind altering drug, people need to use caution and moderation. I agree with the slow crawl towards legalization of cannabis, but there is a lot of misinformation out there. It's not a harmless herb.

  17. Sorry, but this is a silly comment. Everyone was over the moon when MON was hired; at that point, his reputation was sky high. If keen followers of football didn't think he was useless (in fact, quite the opposite), how was Lerner supposed to figure that one out? Nobody knew how shit MON was going to be with transfers. I think the important thing to take away from that debacle is that once Lerner did realize MON was useless, he shut him down.
  18. GoT, king of the plot twist...unbelievable..
  19. I when I look at that
  20. Not to be outdone by the recent London in color film- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WgqRN40TXrE

    Drugs

    No, I'm in favor of decriminalization, legalization, regulation, and taxation of all drugs, actually. The "War on Drugs" is an abject failure on so many fronts, it's become a bad joke at this point. Use some drug revenue for education and treatment, and we'll see fewer addicts, and the overall social cost will plummet. I agree. Throw in military budgets in their and really start building for the future around the world. COMMON SENSE OVERLOAD!
