    That's not quite up to "fetid tubes" quality, but pretty damn good.

    crushing drive to deep left center, crashes off the top of the wall and she's into 3rd with a stand up triple.

    I now believe global warming alarmists are unpatriotic racists knowingly misleading for their own ends. Good night.
     
  8. How old is this woman?
    Under 35, based on her looks. How she keeps her new job - when this comes out - will be a miracle.

    Jon Klinsmann, a high school goalkeeper and the son of the U.S. team coach, did not handle the Landon Donovan dismissal in the classy manner that his dad did.

    After Landon Donovan was shockingly cut from the 23-player World Cup roster on Thursday, the head coach’s son, Jonathan, tweeted: “HHAHAHAHAHAHAH DONAVAN HAHAHAHAA I DIDNT EVEN NOTICE UNTIL PHONE NOTIFIED ME HAHA”

    There were actually some smileys in there too.

    He apologized and wiped out his entire Twitter account.

  11. For what it's worth, my 13-year-old daughter had a similar reaction. She's a big FC Dallas fan and absolutely despises Donovan -- she thinks he's a dirty player and a jerk. In fact, she has been very conflicted about rooting for the U.S. in the World Cup because she hates Donovan so much. In the last one, she threw her support behind England because one of her former coaches (whom she reveres) is from there.

    When she heard Donovan didn't make the team, she shouted "Yes!" and celebrated. She told me, "I can root for the Americans now! Go USA!"

    That would be quite a bit more relevant if you were the coach of Team USA.
