Topical Chat, January 13, 2006

24 starts this weekend … so if the Eagles lose, at least I’ll still have something to look forward to.

On David Beckham signing a 5-year, 250 million dollar contract to play for the Los Angeles Galaxy:
“It worked for Pele … wait, no it didn’t.”

On reports that Barry Bonds failed an amphetamine test:
“Great, next thing you’ll tell me is that wrestling is fake.”

On a 20-pound stray tabby cat whose girth got him stuck in a pet door while trying to plunder some dog food, being back with his owner:
“Paris Hilton thinks that's a big pussy.”

On a burglary suspect who escaped from a cop car … and then hid in the Sheriff’s office:
“Word has it the Miami Hurricanes have contacted him about their vacant coaching position.”

On a report that for the first time in two decades, pigs outnumber Germans in Lower Saxony:
“Great, finally a premise for the new Police Academy movie.”

On a mysterious San Francisco company that has launched an equally mysterious product aimed at coffee drinkers seeking an extra boost - the company and the product share the same name Meth Coffee:
“That should go well with the pot brownies.”
http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory?id=2788559

On a bunch of wedding guests canceling because the Saints game is scheduled for the same time:
“Archie Manning must be turning over in his grave … and he’s not even dead yet.”

“According to sources, he has replaced her with Satan.”

I think the cat was seen getting out of a car with Paris and totally exposed herself just to get in the paper.

2 days of football playoffs + 2 nights of 24 = a very good weekend.

Beckham: team GM stars in new movie Bend Over for Beckham.

Bonds: if I'm the teammate he blamed, then I'd put a giant (3-foot) syringe in his locker next time he's in the shower and reporters are in the clubhouse.

Big cat: obviously needs to be tied up.

Burglar: also hid in the sheriff's office when he slept with the sheriff's wife?

Pigs vs. Germans: Wishing pigs outnumbered Iran's Revolutionary Guard.

Meth Coffee: Will last as long as SF's medical marijuana centers did -- that is, until the NIMBYs notice.

Wedding: Who dat say dey gonna marry during dat Saints game? Who dat? Who dat?

Owens firing his publicist: Damn, she dropped a lot of passes this
year.

it'll work for Becks. Best England Captain since Bobby Moore in '66. Lots of jealousy follows him about and it'll increase now. Surrounded by mediocrity and laziness he couldn't win the world cup alone. shame. If we'd won it'd be harder for the jealous get a life gits. Good luck to him. WTF did anyone expect? "No mate I'd rather play for Real Madrid reserves than earn 1/2 million a year". Get real people.

Does it show I'm a fan?
