Big-ups to Andrew Abides for finding this picture for me (from Rondo's Twitter feed). The two best players on my favorite soccer team in the world standing next to my favorite point guard in the world. My mind just exploded along with some other parts of my body that may or may not have exploded.As Andrew and I sat there last night drinking black n' cans (Saranac Black and Tans, in cans), his streaking Nets took it to my first place Celtics with dead-eye three point shooting and passionate defense, which stifled Paulie Walnuts and Rondo.
We bet $5,000 on the game. Neither of us have close to that. I owe him 5k and I don't have it. Celts are now tied with Chicago for first place in the East due to this loss.
None of that matters because of this glorious picture this game produced.
Thank you, Twitter. It's moments like this when you prove why you're the best invention ever.
Hey, keep my bank account out of your mouth.
ReplyDeleteBut seriously, you forgot to mention that the MLS starts tonight! Picking the Sounders tonight. Because fuck Bruce Arena.
Sorry, sorry. It won't happen again.
ReplyDeleteYeah, fuck Arena and Becks, too. He's given the ball away about 9 times this first half, although did have a near miss on that last setpiece.
Beckham would be a terrible basketball player. Just sayin'
Am I wrong here?
That near miss by Becks was pretty vicious. That's why he exists, right?
ReplyDeleteHe would be pretty bad at basketball. The only part he'd be comfortable with would be free throws, but he'd put too much spin on them.
Who'd be the best? Drogba is my answer to every question having to do with soccer, so I'll pick him. Plus there are those pictures of him and LaMarcus.
