On behalf of all the Magpie’s here in America, even though you broke our hearts in our final match in the Premier League, I would like to welcome you to the thugs!!
I’d like to take this time to really thank you for that warm greeting. It reminds me of the welcoming peasants would give their lords when they came to exercise their right to “break in” a newly wedded bride. For you my lads, are all newly wedded brides… and I plan to watch Aston Villa play some Football Under Consent of King to you all.
Happy learned how putt.
As much as I would love to support USA’s amazing victory, it’s a little premature to break out Kool & the Gang… Brazil and/or South Africa is going to put the hurt on them real bad. “If he dies, he dies” — Ivan Drago
Oh– Shiznit! There goes the neighborhood. Why don’t we just invite the Iranian president in for crying out loud.
Well anyway — Welcome Andy… I hope Villa sucks for you.
