Well, Ribéry, Robben (who scored the third goal today) and Müller (who scored the first goal today) HAVE scoring capabilities, but they are a different type of player than Gomez. Gomez is somebody who stays up front, who gets the ball from his team mates and whose job it is to just be at the right spot at the right time.
The other players are more like players who dribble past the defenders and then shoot.
Of course, Gomez can also dribble and then shoot, but his technique is... well... limited. ^^
But it doesn't matter that much if he just does his job and gets the ball over the line somehow.

Yeah, but I mean if you have any midfielders with good scoring capabilities, or good "number 10's", it doesn't have to be a problem when you only have a guy like Muller up front.

Yeah it's ridiculous how much those people get paid and also, how much clubs pay for such a player. I don't know, but it looks like football is kind of digging its own grave when clubs start to toss cash around in such numbers.

Won't happen as long as the sponsors pay and the tv stations pay millions for the broadcasting rights...

It's all the medias fault!

Water!

Hm... I was more thinking of something better. Some things can keep burning under water.

Erm... some flame retardant goo-y stuff then.

You need to call it. I can't call it for you. It wouldn't be fair.

It shows a cool face, of course.

Well done.
Don't put it in your pocket, sir. Don't put it in your pocket. It's your lucky quarter.

All teams with too much money waste talent - just to stop everyone else from utilising them. That saddens me.

Yes it is such a shame that the football world is going that way. Another bad thing about it is that the smaller clubs without as much budget just don't stand a chance in the Champions League anymore because of clubs like that. All their talent is bought away by them and their matches are basically David vs Goliath.

I thought it was sad to see last Tuesday that my favorite club, Ajax, got wiped off the pitch by Real Madrid (3-0). Ajax used to be amongst the best clubs in Europe, but they just can't compete with clubs like Chelsea and Real Madrid anymore.

Oh man... my family would kill me if I missed my brothers wedding that way.

Yeah, it's going to hurt my family, but I can't see any other way around it. I have tried my best to get on with my brother, but he never fucking talks to me, so I can't tell what he wants me to do and I constantly get a bad press for it, despite the fact I'm trying.

I don't suppose your family would want any drama during the wedding either, so perhaps it'll be for the best to steer clear anyway.

I remember fondly talking about my 1.234s and such. I never broke 2 ppd due to not discovering the BBS until just shy of my 3rd NG birthday, but... still. We take what we can get.

Yeah, those were the times.

I was in the 3.x ppd range for a long time (and probably raved about 3.456 at some point, just like 1.234). Hell, I'm even 2.x ppd right now... talk about a typo. There's bad typos and then there's BAD. TYPOS. I just made the latter (by my standards, at least).

If they were knowing about alas and ppd.

We celebrate many achievements but posts per day is not one of them as it would only encourage spam.

Um...
My achievements for swell to ask is just became so dull about that.
I think i need to make sure about that about alas and ppd.

Yeah, I used to record baseball games overnight and play them back at a more civilised hour. Mum wandered in as one of the commentators remarked about a guy being hit by a pitch "Ooh, that got him right in the fanny.", much to her displeasure.

Haha! Funny how things vary even in a common language.

Steve Ouimette - The Devil Went Down To Georgia

Have you heard his cover of dueling banjos? Does not sound too bad, he even modified one of the guitars to have a banjo string for a sixth string I think.

I saw that, but for me, it doesn't sound quite right - yes, he's done a good job and it's a nice challenge on Guitar Hero, but not as good as Devil.

Not even Steve could best the Devil himself...

Wouldn't a guitar made of gold weigh hundreds of pounds and sound crummy?

But I meant The Devil Went Down to Georgia

It remains to be seen, but the only reason these seem to be submitted to the portal is that they produce exposure to the websites.

Yea but the reviews I've seen on some seem to show they are getting annoying with it a bit.

Ooh, do I have to purge >:)

Aerosmith covered Come Together? I love Michael Jackson's working of it, as it's quite rock-like, as opposed to the Beatles, which just seems a little lifeless and flat.

Indeed they did and it doesn't sound too bad either. I enjoyed quite a few Michael Jackson songs, too bad he has left the world to go elsewhere sadly.

I was quite pissed off with The Sun newspaper in the UK, as it printed a picture of Jackson's corpse as front page news. I felt sick to the stomach a few days back. No-one should see one of their heroes like that. Hell, no-one should see another creature like that ever - not printed on a newspaper

The success of the top clubs is actually killing off the competition.

Yeah, I feel the same about Aston Villa - we won lots of competitions in the early 80s, but now we're lucky if we can finish mid table.

Mum said she doesn't care what I do, but it's not hard to see she's lying. My brother's baby machine had her third kid yesterday (his second) and I'd just rather ignore the situation. They get praise and attention for being reckless. Well, I've still got a life and if they've ruined theirs, then that's fine by me. I'll meet the kid before he's 8 weeks old, when I met their second - it's not harmed relations with my nieces, so why should it harm relations with my Nephew?

London is the exception - Surrey and Middlesex play their games at the Oval (Kennington) and Lords (St John's Wood). They are over the Thames from one another, but separated by about 5 miles.

I'm not back home just yet, even though I did leave Paris yesterday but I do have to make a special post for this achievement. Congrats on changing the front page!! What you've done is quite possibly more of a change to the site than my contributions to icons and genres. So little will appreciate all my efforts to update flashes for the redesign while you will be thanked more for interviewing these individuals.

Once again, congrats!

I hate this level. Level 27 is one of my favourite levels, and this is probably one of my least favourite.

Farewell...

Only thing I do on NG nowadays is deposit my xp and vote for the movies that are under judgement when I do my daily voting. So the next B/P rank is far far away.

At least I just leveled up, that's pretty sweet :>

Not bad, I'm hoping to hear back next week whether or not I'm going back for the second tranche of interviews, but it's a role that I feel capable of developing within and there are opportunities to progress on the line of systems installations, training and support.

Well I guess I could send you a list sometime to your inbox and let you decide if they should be removed or not along with a couple of my extremely old reviews, lol.

Nah, I can just pick them up on the list of those with the most flags. If not, send me a few links.

I was quite pissed off with The Sun newspaper in the UK, as it printed a picture of Jackson's corpse as front page news. I felt sick to the stomach a few days back. No-one should see one of their heroes like that. Hell, no-one should see another creature like that ever - not printed on a newspaper

That's rather sickening indeed. Why would you wish to see a dead corpse up close like that.

I'd rather see a dead corpse than a live one ;)

At least give the dude some dignity and not post pictures of his dead body would have been nice. The text on the page could have done the job just as fine...

There is no dignity in death, however, there is no respect for the dead in American Courts.
