I didn't amke any predictions, I just had Sports Shaman read the clues the Universe provided and translated it into an article without swaying it with wants or wishes.

It's hard and easy to do all at the same time! Glad you enjoyed it (even though it wasn't so fun for you and the Super Bowl, eh?

For the record. I liked your "U2 - relevant to sports events" article BETTER.

Seriously. You kept to the framework and didn't interject Karate Kid or 90210 and you didn;t force anything either!

It's ok. It was through reading Bill Simmons that I garner the bravado to try this on my own.

I knew from the 80's I could write entertaining sports stories. I kept to myself and friends. Soemtimes they were rapsongs, sometimes they were fake scripts, but I had fun doing them for myself. But it wasn't until I read Simmons that I realized people were readily accepting to crappy, dull ones too.

I won't say he "spawned" me, but he spurred me...

And when he had the opportunity to co-write a piece with Hunter Thompson (the guy who DID spawn me) and dragged his feet and dicked around until HST shot himself, THAT was what did the most spurring.

HST did the right thing blowing his head off before collaborating with Bill. Have you ever heard Bill Simmons talk? I can't take his sports opinions seriously when I hear his voice.

After Ralph Wiley and Ken Kesey died, I figured - damn there's no one even worth reading on page 2 (besides Paul Lukas and Gregg Easterbrook) so after shittalking my fantasy football league to death, I started my first blog.

The rest is history in the making!!!

He did a U2 lyric-based column before as well.

That's why I said it. He's a HUGE U2 fan.

You read too much Sports Guy... it's gonna rot your brain!

However if he does, i think it would be a good Choice, not because I'm a Real Madrid fan. He has achieved everything that is possible for him to achieve in the English league, where as the Spanish and Italian league are awaiting him. If he does I'm soo going to rub it on my Dad's face and uncle, my dad has been supporting Man U for over 3-4 decades, and my Uncle lives in Manchester, but my other Uncle is going to be soo happy as well cuz he supports Chelsea, loool sorry about the family cheerings, but unlike them I'm more into the SPANISH side, much challenging there in my opinion.

How would u feel now once C.Ronaldo goes and plays for Real Madrid??

Will u still cheer for Man U.?

Yeah, the Cuse UVA game on Saturday should be good. I honestly don't think this years UVA team is all that good. They have yet to impress me, and all the overtime wins just look like mediocraty to me. But we shall see. At least the Orange and Blue will win.

Minnesota Vikings will offer Travaris Jackson, their first round pick, their second round pick, and a second round pick in 2009 for the jets first round pick
