The only thing you'd be interested in is golden balls at milan. They beat Hamburg today in Dubai, Beckham started. Ronaldinho and Kaka both have come out in the media over the last couple of weeks and said "gee, wish Dave would stay longer than his loan".

Beckham steals CRonaldo's transfer window soap opera thunder.

dear God in heaven, if it's not one soon to be ex-united player it's an already ex united player. beckham won't be back in the US, to play.

Looking forward to having ManU ruin you life again in a few months.

My winter league team starts thursday night- you get to pick how many wins we will have out of 6 games from Jan-Feb. Pick the correct amount of wins- win 5 cigars. tie breaker will be how many goals are scored against us for the season.

Full disclosure: my team "should" be better than we were in the Fall.

I've let myself be put in charge of uniforms (jerseys) any suggestions? I've been thinking of this one because I can get the long sleeve shirt too, don't ask I'm dumb... any thoughts?

The only problem is that you can only get the pink one in short sleeve, which I know is the one you wanted. Good thing you live in Alabama though and there is no need for long sleeve anything down there.

joey, you forget about the ground hurting my delicate skin so I wear long sleeves...

jermain defoe is now a Spud.

St. Lou Stu - 5 wins
Jason- 2 wins 13 goals against
Jdbwolverines- 3 wins-2 draw-1 loss, 11 goals against
theycallmedan'lboone- 4 wins 1 draw, 1 loss 8 goals against
Don Fernando - 3 wins, 2 draws, one loss goals against 13

First update:

Gunners go up 1-0 at half. An inspired 45 min of football, defense tight, moving the ball well, midfield supporting strikers.
Second half: not so much. Gunners lose 3-1.

you guys are bunch of bastages!

aldukes:

4 wins 1 draw, 1 loss ( do y'all do draws? )
goals against? 8.

speaking of local teams... my season starts, well, February, but I may not be on the same team, as the captain and I had a bit of a bust up last year... ( imagine, me and someone having a row )

aldukes · 01-07-2009, 08:59 PM

we have draws in the league.

Note it will be 25 degrees at game time- on a wet field. ugh.

PERFECT!

so for the first time in my life I've been cut from a team... the captain from my old squad sent me the email the other day. something about trimming down the roster... I cry.

I've emailed most all the other captains in the leagues, all 4 divisons and have gotten the same shtick "we're pretty full but we'll keep you in mind" so I'll just be getting fatter...

Liverpool is better than Man U.
