Zinedine Zidane
Ok, I've read a ton of stuff about him this week cause that's all everyone seems to want to talk about. My take on it. I don't blame him at all for going psycho on that Italian. Italy was giving him cheap shots all game. Grab of the jersey here, kick in the shin there, a lot of trash talk. I agree with one columnist who said the only thing he did wrong was headbutt him right then. Wait until after the game. Wave the trophy at him if you want. If you lose, feel free to go up to the guy and stomp on his nuts or rip his head off. I don't think people should rip him for the actual act of headbutting him however. If you've ever played competitive sports, you know that emotions can run high. The bigger the stage, the higher the stakes, the more people give in to their emotions. The pinnacle of my competitive career was the playoffs in the rec league. There was a lot of jabbing between the two teams. That was 13-14 year old rec league basketball. I can't begin to imagine what happens in the world cup final, a game thats being watched by a billion people. So everyone that's criticizing him, stop. All that he's done for soccer, in France, in Europe, in the world, one headbutt does not erase all of that and turn him into the second coming of Ron Artest. Hell, if he had done this in American football, he's a hero.
Israel
Why on earth is the US backing Israel in this? Yes, Hazballah or whatever killed some Israeli soldiers. Is that any reason to bomb the crap out of Lebanon? Are there no sane people that say, wait a minute, there's a way other than violence? O wait... it's basically what America did in Afghanistan and Iraq. My bad. Thanks to Bush, we're so much closer to worldwide annihilation.
Kingdom Hearts 2
I really like this game. The plot's kinda confusing cause I never played through much of Kingdom Hearts 1, but it's still fun. I like the random minigames that are in this. Theyre actually fun *cough* final fantasy x-2 *cough*
Grey's Anatomy
Ok, I watched the 2nd season in 2 weeks. Doesn't touch ER, and doesnt come close to Family Guy. Not sure why that asian girl got a nomination for supporting actress for it. I dont see it.
Sin City
WOW

Why can't managers be honest with you? If they don't have a job for you or if they don't want to hire you, I wish they would just say, I'm sorry, but I don't have anything for you. Instead I get, Yeah, I'll see what I can do and I'll call you in the next day or two. Then when I call back to ask 3 or 4 days later, it's I'm sorry, he's in a meeting can I take a message? And then they never call back. I think managers should have to show basic humanistic traits before they can be hired as a manager. Like kindness and decency. I've gone to my last resort, Panera Bread again, where I was supposed to get a call yesterday. But I think they'll hire me, if because of nothing else, because they dont have to train me. This time, it's the Summit panera.

Well, I'm halfway done with Othello *mutters obscenities* My dad's boss told me it gets to be around -30 regularly *mutters obsceneties* And I still dont have housing information *mutters obsceneties*

If Tyrone Prothro doesn't take home the award for best play, I'm gonna write 10 emails a day in protest. Here, I'll describe it to you. Brodie throws it up as far as he can. Prothro cant quite get to it, but he puts his hands up BEHIND his defender, somehow catches it, flips into the endzone while clutching the ball to the guys neck, and scores. They even ruled pass interference on it. I dont care how good the David Wright catch was. PROTHRO!!!!! O, and that autistic kid that scored 20 points in 4 minutes should get athlete of the year or whatever he got nominated for.
