So I've predicted this since Beijing was awarded the 2008 Olympic Games when I was there in 2001. China has a major world chip on its shoulder, and they're out to show off for everybody -- since they believe everybody disrespects them. And the Olympics are going to be a prime vehicle for that national pride ... except that the Chinese are inevitably going to do a variety of things that make the rest of the world scratch their heads and say, "What the f^%#$??..."

For example, when Beijing bid for the 2000 Games, which they lost to Sydney, their proposal to the IOC included (and I'm not making this up) the eradication of all houseflies in Beijing. Yes, "What the f^%#$??..."

And so now that the Games are upon us, I'm waiting for the grand Olympic ceremony and celebration of Chinese culture -- to be made all the more complete by freaked out Olympic athletes everywhere who find the severed heads of pigs in their Olympic Village accommodations as welcoming gifts. But in the meantime, it looks like we have to settle for the Chinese effort to build a paved highway to Mt. Everest for the Olympics:

Woo hoo! I would hate to have to miss a season of open mic coughing in their native Italian. That is what Serie A is all about!

Thank goodness for that and thank goodness for FSC. They are all I've got up here at my apartment in Not-So-Happy Real Football Valley.

Right . . . like I would be driving a van

It might be a Mercedes van.

Yes, he has Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).




Oh, and if that's not bad enough, he also has a tiny penis.

Well, to whomsoever asked, I don't think he has a disease, I think he just has a small donger.

So what can a guy who doesn't get Rai or FSC do?

So what can a guy who doesn't get Rai or FSC do?

Watch the English Premiere League. I've never seen it myself, but I've heard from a reliable source that it's the best league in the world shitinacoffeecan.

Did you hear? I kept the JUVE plate and sold the Mercedes.

Have you ever gotten a reaction from someone?

 

[Bjerknes]

Get one of them.

 

[Bjerknes]

Did you hear? I kept the JUVE plate and sold the Mercedes.

Ahh, did not know that. What is the vehicle of choice nowadays?

Next time I get a new plate I'm gonna change it to something Juve related, or something like ILOVERP.

Have you ever gotten a reaction from someone?

Yes, I was at a deli near the Soccer stadium and a guy (who works for the Carolina RailHawks) asked the cashier who drives the yellow car? I turned to him and said "I do . . . are you a fan?" He then cursed me in Italian, I laughed, he laughed and told me he was an Inter fan and that he was from Milano. It was cool.

 

[ßöмßäяðîëя]

I have the big Dodge Ram with the hot FCBAYERN on it, boys.

 

[Bjerknes]

I have a VW Passat with the old Juventus logo on the side..

 

[ßöмßäяðîëя]

Don't forget you have the huge loudspeaker mounted on top of the Passat a la Blues Brothers that screams out FORZA JUVE no matter where you drive..........no wonder you get 4 miles to the gallon on the highway.

 

[GordoDeCentral]

Bucephalus, cant pass on having phallus on your plate

I just got a hair cut and the wierdest thing happened. The girl cutting my hair asked if she could shave my beard, I explained that I was planning on taking care of it myself later, but she insisted on cutting it. Having your face shaved by an attractive female is one of the most relaxing experiences I've ever had. That said, I got her number. How you like them apples!

 

[ßöмßäяðîëя]

Are you fucking serious? If you are, you are the man.......the main man.

 

[swag]

Dude, you should have offered her a reciprocal shaving. It's customary.

Word on the street is that there's a real football factory in David Beckham's rectum, and George Michael is just the guy to get it out at an I-5 rest stop.
