Cugalabanza

Yes, he is. By the way, the first warm-up Friendly is tonight, against Azerbaijan. 10pm on ESPN2.

That group (D) will be interesting. England, Uruguay, Costa Rica, Italy. I have no doubt Italy will advance, but how the rest plays out...I'm curious. Costa Rica is capable of surprising somebody.

I love the response from Brad Evans to being cut... http://ftw.usatoday....rad-evans-tweet Yes! Anyone who is willing to talk soccer is welcome. There are so few of us. If I were Portuguese, would I be Cugalabanho?

Yes, I understand this, but the kid's tweet is not evidence of anything that I can see except that he's a little ****.

Kid seems like a little ****. Can't even spell Donovan right. I don't know what this is supposed to evidence of.

I'm willing to give benefit of the doubt and accept that it's performance based. Donovan himself has spoken recently about how his body is not performing the same way as when he was younger. In the recent Mexico game, he was visibly heavier. Still, it's a huge surprise to me. What's this about Klinsmann's son's twitter? I'm not familiar.

Congratulations, CgF! Cheers to you and your family!

Ok, but I'm not letting him perform the procedure to remove it.

I'm sorry, Rubes. I went through this a couple years ago with my 16 year old dog. It's a kind thing you're doing. Dogs are so great! Seems cruel they can't stay with us longer.

That was great to watch. I'm excited to root for this guy.

Wait, you could "deliver a penetrating through-ball." Or "find the back of the ol' onion bag." Or "schedule a friendly." Aw, dammit you're right--it does suck.

I always liked Stevie, but I see how this was inevitable. I hope he does well in San Fran and that conditional pick turns into a third rounder for the Bills.

So we're talking about eighths of inches now in height? Is it me or does it seem unnecessary to say one guy is a slice of cheese taller than another guy?

I would do anything for love, but I won't do scat.

Gug's not around? What happened to him? His wife is super hot by the way.

It has nothing to do with the issue of free speech. He spoke and he's still free. The NBA is also free and they said we don't want to be affiliated with you anymore. It's not about free speech--it's about biting the hand that feeds you. You can call your boss a dick if you want to. You have that freedom. But when he fires you for it, don't say free speech is dead.

Free speech isn't dead at all. Free speech never meant you could say whatever you want and nobody can get upset about it.

I agree. This is not even a free speech issue. It’s a “don’t bite the hand that feeds you” issue. I have zero sympathy for a jackass who pisses away a good thing and is still left standing as a free and wealthy man.

Maybe it taught you how to swim, but it certainly didn't teach you to stop crying.

We occasionally get green anoles here on our patio in Georgia. I like seeing them. Lizards fascinate me. I do what I can to keep our cat away from them.

I don't know the answer, but I'm gonna pretend it's this: The town is named for a sort of ad hoc method of informal birth control utilized by the early colonists of that area who were Puritanical about such things, but—as humans will be human—could not help themselves from indulging in a bit of the covert “short pump” in the hopes that a shallow penetration would decrease the chances of unwanted pregnancy.

I can't tell you with certainty that this is not a good omen, so I think the right thing to do is to say YES, it clearly indicates that the Bills will win the AFC East and go deep into the playoffs.

It took me about a season and a half to figure out who the Joffrey actor reminded me of. Then it hit me: Robin Colcord from Cheers. All the mannerisms are the same. It's uncanny. But anyway, how satisfying was it to see Joffrey choke to death? I really enjoyed that very much.

I loved this movie. Kind of a masterpiece in my opinion. I think of all Wes Anderson's movies, this one may be the best. All of his stylistic signatures are there and it looks amazing. And, more importantly, it all comes together to tell the story in a very entertaining way. I think that in some of this other movies, his familiar tricks have become a little distracting at times. But not this time. I think this movie hits all the right notes. And Ralph Fiennes' performance was amazing.
