"Are ya shearin'?" "Ach, no, laddie, get one of yer own."

It was a swan, see?

I'd heard the Chevy guy who came up with the deal lost his job over it. But that was when it was on the seats, not on the jerseys.

Can't imagine how they would let in more. Coutinho needs to learn he can hit the net (and that he's actually allowed to shoot at it), and Sterling is a monster dressed as a small child. The two of them may not equal one Suarez, but they're still going to do wonders for the club.

That part near the end where they look towards each other? I so need that to be a GIF inserted into the opening credits from The Brady Bunch. But I'm old and pathetic, so it won't be me.

1979. Back in the day when they played music, and just barely at the beginning of FM AOR with K-97. My kids understand none of this, of course.

I feel the need to say my son told me the other day a friend of his was sexually assaulted at a summer camp where she worked (she's 15) a couple weeks ago. Imagine my surprise when he also told me the camp admin promptly called the cops, who took it seriously, arranged for excellent professional help for the victim,…

Non winning something now:

I have two. This is the "won something" story:

I misread the headline as "Goat Boner." Not sure if I'm disappointed or not.

True. He plays (played, although Suarez ought to make things... interesting) on the best team in the world, a group of players who know what to expect from him, or at least as much as they can expect from him. Argentina was not the team I thought they'd be, but he was good enough to carry them through to the final.

Here's my kid (then 17) with Richard Simmons in Paris last November. Simmons approached him and his class singing "I love Paris," and all the kids except mine backed away. My son's reaction was classic: he thought Simmons might be homeless, so promptly shook his hand and introduced himself. Took him a few seconds to…

Asshole.

Mary Shelley's Oliver Kahn. I can't think of him any other way.

Aside from the Netherlands and Nigeria games, he either scored or set up the winner in each game. Against Nigeria he scored two and I can't recall if he took the corner that resulted in the 3rd goal. Yeah, there were other players I would argue should have gotten more love for the player of the tournament, but I won't…

Brazil subs in Paulinho and ignores that perfectly serviceable floor lamp in the dressing room, just itching to improve the defense. An injustice!

Yeah, Canada is the defending gold medal champ, having beaten the US in - gasp! - Texas.

By all means become a feeder, but then they need playing time. Just because a player is with Bayern or Roma or what have you doesn't mean they're actually doing anything other than training and then warming the bench during games. Canada is able to get past this hurdle by marketing their players as being from other…

How is that supposed to help? The days when pretty much anyone on your roster got their start even at age 14 are long gone. Most elite players are being identified long before that, and with very rare exceptions, you're not going to haul a college or even high school player out of one sport and have any hope of…
