left footed players


first of all, when you look at this guy all dressed up in a tux, you probably would expect him to be busing tables, not being the most badass footballer on the planet, by far. thats just another thing that sets soccer apart from its american counterpart, you dont have to be of a certain size or shape to excel. look at the andy reids and charlie adams of the world.

but, i got to thinking how the game might transform if our best athletes did play soccer. i'm convinced that michael vick would be twice the player eddie johnson ever was if he stepped on to a field tomorrow. thats an exaggeration of course, who knows if michael has ever kicked a ball, but you get the point. the fact that eddie johnson (nothing personal ed) is even still in the discussion for the national team is a reminder of how shallow our athlete pool still is, and yet we have far and away the most gifted athletes in abundance on the planet.

So why is the US still struggling to draw its best players? Its a complex and underpubliscized answer there, but none of which should have to do with money. If washed up NBA rejects can make their way over to China and Greece for top dollars, then there's no reason the allure of becoming an international superstar shouldn't be the dream of the next Noel Devine.

I understand you don't like the idea of the vault, but considering the statement regarding capitalism and the attack of the wealthy and comfortable I think this would be appropriate if you inappropriately and illegally release me outside of my home state of California.
Every day you harass and torment me with AI is one less day of the 300 years remaining I have to enjoy.
It's like I am a slave, a perpetual indentured servant who they use to absolve themselves of any shred of culpability which may exist after all their tactics of the 20th century have been employed.
Fuck off. Fuck off please.
There are so many clues it is guarenteed to fail I don't know if I am going to care.
Thir promise is like the bullshit positioned promise of 2000, eliminated with Mustang Ranch. Probably symbolic/metaphoric.

"Why did it happen?" The assassination in Tuscon.
Either/and the gods were looking to discredit me or create positioning they could use to gain consensus for letting Mission Dolores happen.
Reality is if I don't get a bill, if Medicare pays for dialysis I stay out and remain out as long as money premits. With $900 a month income it may be another year.
"The West Bank, where the end of the world will begin." It happened 2000 years ago.
Sorry.

If you were worth a damn at management you would render the correct decision up front, not wait to change your behavior until I argue my point.
The gods need to redirect AI, and if they are at this stage personally involved in day to day decisions find someone else, because this person (people) suck.
Freaky rape movie on the fourth floor of MOMA.
Gee, I wonder what prompted the gods to offer that.

Ruining my health from this point forward is just icing on the cake.
What I will do was going to happen anyways without that job, and it ia quite obvious they weren't going to allow it.
You might as well go crazy. You know you want it.
You see I deliberately, intentionally will not respond to your "attempts" to "help me pray" AND I EXPRESS THIS you should let me go. No amount of abuse will change this. You are just "pile on many more layers" to the initial destroying of my childhood.

The gods hand the championship to Auburn with a bad review call by the officials. The tackler pulled down the ball carrier, who landed on top but was allowed to get up and run for a big gain.
They worked hard (sacrificed everything) for this chance and you CHEATED them out of it.
They share this is a battle of good and evil. And, unlike the Super Bowl of rock and roll, Pink Floyd does not win.

Good god says a ceiling on time for everyone (see below). Evil god still gives hope for immortality to people who subscribed to preditory behavior:::Immortality if you are right versus a couple centuries partying at best even if you change now.
Due to institutional evil the closer we get to The End the more evil everyone incurrs (with individual variation due to behavior) which limits the time for everyone.
Probably the children who fix their problems and ascend into heaven as well. Experiencing the evil of modern life in the 20th century costed them, for which limits are placed. They are not the same as their innocent peasantry ancestors from the Old World.
You people have fucked up bad by not getting out before the 20th century.
Just because the gods have to break some eggs doesn't mean they are evil. As management there are hard decisions that must be made. But they used this omelette and sold it to people as temptation, who went out and did things they shouldn't have done thinking being preditory was the way to "earn" their way into heaven.
"We decided you're not worth it." Then you should leave.
Staying proves positioning is all that matters and you are depraved and immoral.
Tuscon shooting in Safeway parking lot payback for the Giant's World Series???
