    Talking Are you ready for some FOOTBALL

    The Tavern is temporarily closed due to the start of the football season (thursday don't count dammit). Meet us all here after today's games for the post games Tailgate party. Any non-believers (football-wise) will have to serve themselves this afternoon. Don't drink all the Blue Sapphire gin, save some for me. Idaho , stay out of the till.

    By football I take it you mean that game which involves fat men hitting each other with huge protective vests on? *runs*
    GARCIN: I "dreamt," you say. It was no dream. When I chose the hardest path, I made my choice deliberately. A man is what he wills himself to be.
    INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
    GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
    INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

    I'm not a veggie by a long chalk, but that 'food' looks disgusting.

    No wonder those yank football *cough* players are so fat.

    No worries m8, we aim to please our international friends; here's your bratwurst taco , or would you prefer some bratwurst sushi, or curried brat?

    I still hold out the remote possibility that the Bengals might one day win the super bowl but until then I will have to side with the cowboys but they don't look so good either.

    I think it has less to do with bar-b-cued meat and more to do with the NFLs non-existant doping controls...

    Don't know what you eat Red Peasant, but I see sausage, speedies (shish-kebob without the veggies) and hamburgers. Add copious quantities of cold beer and you got a tailgate party. I realize it isn't kidney pie, fish'n chips with room temperature beer, but don't knock it till you try it.
    Yank football players ain't fat, they're BIG BONED.

    I've always found it peculiar that a nation which prides itself on it's masculinity and athletic prowess finds it neccessary to strap on massive amounts of protective padding to play rugby...

    I take offence at the beer thing, fish'n chips I agree with, but a good British Ale is worth ten thousand American imitations.

    By the way what is kidney pie. I've heard of steak and kidney pie, which is not nice steak and kidney pudding now thats another story, but what is kidney pie.

    I find it odd that all those masculine rugby players don't play American football, where the real money is, I'm talking multi-million $$$ contracts baby. I'm sure they would dominate the league with their superior atheletic ability, strength, toughness etc... they probably don't want to show up their American counterparts, yeah, that's probably it.

    Martin Johnson (captain of the World Cup winning England rugby team) is a HUGE NFL fan. A journalist friend got him a try-out with the 49ers a few years ago - not a serious one to get a job, just to see how he got on. At 6 foot 6 with his rugby ball handling skills they figured Tight End would be his ideal position. The coaches were very impressed with him and wanted to know what College he went to

    Id say the Odds of Larsson scoring are hight, he scored for Barca the other night when he was playing right wing!
    Chelsea - Simply Champions!
