THE NEGATIVE REACTION

LOTS OF NEW STUFF HAPPENING RIGHT NOW!!


Where to start? Some quick blurbs maybe??

1) I started playing Golf again. Not that I ever did seriously, but (here comes another soccer reference) since I won't be playing soccer next year, golf is a logical fill in - right? Sure. got a new driver and its already made all the difference. I'm bombing it about 250 on the fly, straight away, which is pretty awesome I think. Been to the range several times with my Dad which is cool because it gives us time to spend together which we really haven't had in a while.

2) Whoah! Another soccer season has started in the Premiership. Lots of new faces, new places and in the Serie A, I was shocked to see some premiership faces come over to the Italian side. My favorite Norwegian Jon Arne Risse has joined AS Roma and will hopefully bring some stability to their back line. I'm hoping to see some of his thunderous left on action on Sundays. Another suprise was to see Jose Mourinho finally come out of hiding and end up at Inter Milan. Everybody is waiting to see who's coming over from Chelsea to play for him again. I guess Lampard is already ruled out, but you never know about a mid season transfer!!

Of course my Reds return with a very strong lineup, but will be hampered the first half of the season with Ronaldo's knee surgery and Tevez still out and Rooney not playing to 100% - it could get out to a sketchy start. So is a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford to Newcastle sketchy? Yeah, I think so.

Nuff said. . . anyways. . .the sniper of London will return soon though, have no fear!


Not much else is going on other than I want a bigger monitor at home for my upcoming desing projects. I big CRT pig isn't cutting it anymore.

Oh yeah, another big news item was my old stab in the back teammate PK calling to tell me this the last season for our Manchester soccer team. I think he was about three years too late. The past few seasons they've been playing in an upper tier for their outdoor and have gotten run pretty bad every season. I kept good tabs on them and they were always at the bottom for their indoor league and then when outdoor started, they never did very well. This year I think they were 2-11-4. Not a fun team to play for. I'm almost thankful he treated me like shit so I wouldn't have to endure those past seasons of getting lit up every game. Trust me, there's no pleasure in that.

The one thing I will take away is I was a key player when the team was in its heyday. Back in the mid to late 1990's I was a terror on the left side of the pitch. Man, those were the days. Our team took so many league titles (both indoor and outdoor) and so many tournaments it was insane - we totally OWNED all the Fargo leagues. We went four complete seasons without losing a league title, it was awesome. Anyways, it had to die, everything dies sooner or later - no matter how long to try to keep it alive. I think this team died a long time ago, PK just finally put it out of its misery. Good riddence, I'll pour out some BLD for ya brother.

My son leaves next Tuesday to go back to school. We chipped in and got him some new boots and some shinguards. Of course HIS MOM couldn't do it. She always complains they're poor, but something tells me she's up to her old tricks again. I know how she works.

Anyways, enough about her. You know I could go on and on, but won't right now.

Okay, okay, so I think we're all caught up right now. . . . . . .
