Sorry lookout. I read some of the blog and it is truly, truly a gut-wrenching thing.

I hope he is at peace and pray for his family to find it as well.

Ah, sorry Lookout.

He was an absolute one of a kind. There were three of us that have been together since we were 2. CWB had a pretty abrasive personality but a heart of gold. Probably 20 years ago while defending him in conversation I stated that he was an asshole, but he's our asshole. After all this time I still can't come up with a more appropriate description for his place in our crew.

I miss him a lot, but he has left me 35 years of great memories. Can't ask for more from a friend.

:comfort: .

Sorry to hear of the loss lookout

Sorry to hear, lookout. That was a beautiful tribute website.

I agree, really beautiful. So sorry for your loss Lookout. Am thinking of you and your friend's family.

I have just returned from "Kroger-ing" (grocery shopping, for our BBC buddies)

I feel as though I have been butt-f*cked in the mouth.

$166.56 - I'll have to make it last allllll month.

Day-um.

Nor could he.

re: "our asshole". Enjoy.

Sepp bloody Blatter is making me REALLY CROSS.

Oh blah blah blah "I am the Captain of the ship" blah blah blah "difficult waters"!
Yes. You were the Captain when the crew were taking bungs!
You didn't know your crew were corrupt, apparently.
Well if you didn't, you're a lousy Captain.
And if you did, you're a liar and a cheat and a lousy Captain.

Do you see?

Having to elect a man because he is the only man standing is not an act of support. You are a despot and the closed world of FIFA is a joke. You don't even understand the word "crisis"? Tcha.
That's why you delivered your speech in French, when the international language of football is English.

You smashed the English press for their treatment of FIFA and of you.
What was it you said?
FIFA was wounded, you were slapped?
Something like that.
They fucking deserved it.
Two representatives are now under investigation for taking bribes!
When you were Captain of the ship! You got slapped? You're lucky that's all you got mate.
If you were English I'd like to see the Queen haul you through Traitors' Gate for your twisty turny behaviour.

Oh but wait...
If you were English we might have had the World Cup here.
Rather than Qatar. Where under-investigation Mohamed bin Hammam comes from.
Which submitted the lowest ranking bid.
Where they've had to change the TIME OF YEAR it's held because of the heat - I mean fuck all the traditional schedules of European football.

Cunt.

There were a lot of things I had to google in the above post but it was totally worth it.

I feel smarter for knowing Sundae.

I also wouldn't want to piss her off. :D

Wow, and I was just mildly bummed that Coach Tressel resigned. :(

I heard a good idea though: Tressel as coach of the Cincinnati Bungles, I mean Bengals.

Well said Sundae - Its a travesty that the Wc is going to be help in that godforsaken hole of a cuntry (sp). I agree wholeheartedly!

Hey - cool!
I thought I would be just shouting for echoes airing a football (soccer) issue here.
Thanks for the responses.

I looked up Sepp Blatter on Google (UK) earlier.
One of the top drop down options was Sepp Blatter bell-end.
We Brits might not be as sophisticated as our continental cousins, but we certainly cut to the chase.
