I need to give my props to Landon Donovan and team U.S.A. for advancing to the round of 16 yesterday. Hopefully, they have some magic up their sleeves and can make a deep run. If not, I'm rooting for Germany and my main man Bastian Schweinsteiger.
Speaking of the World Cup, a bunch has been made about those horns that all the fans in South Africa like to blow. A bunch of people find them to be irritating and obnoxious. Some people have gone as far to say that they are ruining the World Cup and to me thats a stretch. Now, I don't reallly see what fans fascinations with blowing large pipes have to do with the game of soccer, but thats another issue. Besides, fans have always had stupid, irritating things to keep them entertained, like those thunder sticks in Anaheim. Now as for them being irritating and obnoxious, I'd imagine they probably are. They strike me as one of those things that I can only hope Shouldice never gets a hold of, especially for little Elvis' sake.
I was passing through the Towson Cirle today and there was an elderly man protesting a fella named Barry and his ideas on political reform. The old geezer was claiming that we couldn't trust anyone who believed in wizardry and I couldn't agree more. The other side of his sign claimed that Barry was ruining the country with his ideas on taxes and healthcare. As I passed my fellow patriot, I couldn't help but to honk my horn, scream hell yeah, and give him a thumbs up.
Speaking of Barry and his belief in wizardry, my mother mentioned that Ross and I should visit the chief wizard's church when we go to Chicago with the Jacobys. And let me tell you, if Ross and I do visit Reverend Jeremiah Wright's chuch,well, it will certainly be interesting. I'd reccomend reading my blog post about that one.
Speaking of the Wizards, it seems all but inevitable that there going to select John Wall with the number one overall pick in tonight's draft. And I certainly can't fault them for that, because Johnny Wall can cetainly ball. As for the rest of the draft, well that's a bit of a mystery. That kid Turner from TOSU can flat out play and teams shouldn't worry about DeMarcus Cousin's attitude because the man's a beast. The Pacers select tenth overall and I wouldn't be surprised if they took Luke Babbit, Gordon Hayward, or Cole Aldrich. Larry Bird seems to have a thing for white guys. We can't forget former Terrapin Greivis Vasquez either. Personally, I don't think he has much hope in the NBA, unless the Spurs get a hold of him. Greg Poppovich knows how to get the best out of guys like Vasquez and for Vasquez' sake, I hope he goes to the Spurs.
I'm hoping to start blogging a bit more, this whole one post a month thing is just unacceptable.
