Why the long faces? After the frustrating, over-hyped, shambolic and ultimately inconsequential distraction of the "World Cup," we can all get back to an appreciation of the beautiful game as it ought to be played: Crunching tackles, kick-and-rush tactics, refereeing that is truly consistent and predictable in its bias, public drunkeness, fistfights and a wide variety of offensive chants.
Will you join me please in welcoming Scottish Premier League season 2006/2007 -- Celtic v. Kilmarnock, July 29, 2006. |

Sorry you're having a disappointing World Cup. I'm sure Scotland will qualify for South Africa.
Best games to date:
France-Spain
France-Korea
Australia-Croatia
Germany-Poland
Netherlands-Portugal

Vino would be the favorite if his entire team weren't under suspicion. He might be able to win riding without a team, though.

I wish DebtSlave would counsel all those who issue wedding invitations with "black tie optional" that they've created a false dichotomy.

But did the students burn down the town when the team came home with the championship?

Black Tie Invited

More or less likely to have people wearing black tie than Black Tie Optional? Sounds more to me, but I've never seen it on an invite before so I am confused.
ETA: it looks like maybe that is just an updated term for Black Tie Optional. So follow up question - how many of the guys here would wear a tux (instead of a dark suit) to a Black Tie Invited wedding?
|
I haven't worn my tux in ~10 years, and would have to pull it out to see how it looks. I think it would fit just fine (woo hoo!), but it might look kinda dated.
I have a friend who got married many, many years ago in a very 80s tux and who wears it out every year on his anniversary.

So, now that the Tour has been made meaningless and uninteresting, what should I watch once the World Cup is over?

Coco Crisp?

Why bother predicting until we see who else is out by the end of the day.
