The Empire Strikes Slightly

I was amused in watching the Manchester United game today, to see the Happy Chinese New Years ads on the signboards.

It shows both what the British Empire has learned, and has not.

By marketing to their Chinese fans, they realize they are much broader market, But but by only wishing happy new year to the Chinese, they make the assumption that all Asians are Chinese.

Lose one for the Gipper

Dear 49ers,

Please lose.

Love,
Me.

Bow chicka bow wow

Whassup with the porn stache Lexi?

C'mon Tigers

Just win one game. A game five means Aretha Franklin will sing the national anthem, and Giants fans will have to deal with that little kernel of doubt.

ETA: of course the moment I publish this, Posey hits one out for the Giants to take the lead.

Fucking Zombie Baseball Team

As a die hard Reds fan, The success of the Giants in the post-season is killing me.
I was at Game 2, and left thinking the Reds have the stuff to be champions.

Dammit.

The annoying thing is...and don't tell nobody...I like the Giants.
That team is an incredible mix of personalities and weirdness and passion.

...and it works...for a baseball team that's big and rare. 

I was totally there throwing ticker tape during the 2010 World Series celebration parade.

However, their fans have been annoying me lately, and I'm still bitter how the Reds went out so...go Tigers!

I propose that the tennis stadium at the Home Depot Center in Carson, CA be named after the Williams sisters.
