i found myself on a lay-over in the atlanta airport a few years back and saw joel glazer ... really nice guy, we talked about the bucs for a solid half-hour ... i was surprised he wasn't hanging out in some VIP airport lounge ...

Mind you, the Glazer family really are poster children for the "wish I'd been born rich instead of beautiful" phrase.

Catch the game Tuesday Mank?  Good flow.  Easily could have been 6-0.
 
 Looking forward to tomorrow morning.

Sure did! They look sharp already, although set pieces need some work, but that will come as the season progresses. Also amazing how much better the back line play when they know they have a solid keeper behind them.

That was duly noted as well.  
 
 Caught the Community/Charity Shield match as well.  Arsenal is going to miss Viera this year more than United missed Becks last season.  I'm going to love to watch Keano tear through them without Viera in his way.

Your diving complaints can't be taken seriously so long as you have a worm like Christiano Ronaldo on your own team.

errr.....'top heavy' is not the same as 'diver', the difference being at least contact is actually made before Ronaldo goes over. The crew at Highbury go down if anyone gets within 2' of them. The cameras don't lie!!

"assist"!!!!!  :eek:  Just what in God's name is an "assist"????   :eek:
 
 To flight players get about 100,000 per week (pounds sterling). I think the average for the premiership is around 35k per week, but I'm sure I'll be corrected by some google-hound.

Speaking of the lovely lay up offered to Sir Wayne via an Everton bloke (that is the word... correct?)

No, in that particular instance, the correct term would be, "Everton Joke"  :D
