USA Mexico @ Gigantic Stadium

2009/07/27
Matt Foran

would estimate the crowd was 70-20 in favor of Mexico, with 10% there just to watch.
No Tim Howard in goal. No Landon Donovan. No Jozy Altidore or Freddy Adu.  These players have no official obligation to the national team at this time. With the exception of Donovan, who plays for MLS’s L.A. Galaxy, the others are back with their respective teams in the European Leagues, which are gearing up for their own Cup tournaments.

Michael Strahan is starring in a sitcom about a recently retired NFL player named Michael.
Either this pilot is written by Charlie Kauffman or it should never have been greenlit I did think it was admirable/interesting that they had a handicap actor, you don’t see many main characters in a wheel chair on TV, let alone sitcoms.

Stan Musial, this year’s obligatory OAP driven around field in a golf cart. What a moment. Stan’s wearing sandles with black socks.

Boyle “Roy Halladay should get rocked on purpose, since he’s probably going to end up on a National League World Series contender.”

they said 44 would be in booth between the 3rd-5th inning. It’s the bottom of the 2nd…staying one step ahead of the terrorists

Iphone commercial: I would never tell my phone to “play songs by jack johnson” and if I did he probably wouldn’t listen. because he’s an itunes genius.

I guess rum goes in a pina colada, not tequila.

Bob dylan’s son directed the pepsi “forever young” video, so at least it was nepotism on top of selling out.

 On the runway @jFK in one of those “feel free to use your cell phone delays.” I know it’s unlikely but If something terrible happens, I want you to know I always loved you. It was always only you.

But if we do crash, promise to wait until they find my remains, or 4 years, whichever comes first, b4 you start dating again. That we avoid any Cast away situation where u end up married to a dentist.
Thoughts while watching two channels of espn on jetblue directv

6 years and $50 million for Anderson Varajao is 6 years and $50 million too much.

“Lebron getting dunked on” video is becoming like the Zapruder film. If Nike/lebron is smart they will turn into a commercial and show they have senses of humor

Goodell hiked Mt Ranier w Jim Mora Jr, did he invite all the other coaches? Possible Rooney rule violation.

ESPN2 sportsnation show w colin cowherd…great idea (fan voting) terrible execution (cowherd) . Now I know why all the sports bloggers hate him…he is really unlikeable and has bad ideas. He’s basically a skinny Sean Salisbury. I’m guessing espn forced simmons to have him on the podcast to promote Sportsnation. Also, the best part about deadspin is the reader comments, but espn chooses the most boring, sacharine , neutered comments to highlight. I know it can’t be like deadspin but cmon.

Jeremy Mayfield couldn’t get a sponsor for this weekends race …NASCAR only allows perscription drugs to advertise on cars

Should tim Wakefield start the all star game ? I certainly don’t care.No matter where Allen iverson signs, I’ll always remember him as a Piston.

I’ve never heard a solid reason why you can’t use approved electeonic devices during takeoff and landings? Just cuz?
