Well I am back and frankly very surprised to see this thread on the front page. Must have been a fucking slow week here.
To put it short my travel from Northern Vermont to Manchester England... SUCKED. 3 hours to drive home, 2 hours to Boston Logan. I then sat around and my flight got delayed and left an hour late. 8 hours in the air to of all places Frankfurt Germany(I flew Lufthansa) only to discover that my connecting flight took off a few minutes after I had touched down. This gave me ample time to wait in line and re-book for a later flight and go from a 30 minute connection time to a 4.5 hour layover.
I then flew 2 more hours to Manchester only to get into the baggage area and wait another hour before they told us the conveyor belt had broken and it would be a while for our luggage. After I got my bag I made it out, met my Girl and drove to her place. Total time of being awake was somewhere around 38 hours.
Then it fucking snowed...
I'll post some pics later when I get back up to my comp in Vermont.
And no, I was not mugged and raped in Manchester.
And yes I had a good time in England.

All you slags need to come to London!

BTW I heard Miami is a good place to party, the Miami music winter conference is supposed to be quite similar to the parties in Ibiza. I may have to check that out!

Two types:

Tea time = Dinner = After lunch/Evening meal (varies according to accent) some people call it dinner some call it tea, some call it evening meal etc.

Tea time = cup of tea time = any time of day

The more important countries consider other sports to be more important.

though toronto is showing more spirit towards their MLS team then any team in the states imo.

Beckham lost to us as well

Anyways..i went to a game...it was enjoyable...based solely on the crowd...but it is still more enjoyable to go to a hockey or baseball game

either way...id like the hcampions leagues or whatever better...if it wasn't just a few insanly rich teams buying up all the good players.

Pyro · 04-14-2008, 07:28 PM

and in a sense...i believe in terms of summer sports...id rather put my kid into baseball...which IS cheap...since all you really need to buy in a glove and cleetes...where soccer all ya need is cleetes right...

cuz here in brampton anyways..t.he coaches provide the bats, bases...the league etc...provides everything...

oha ya and every dude needs a cup...

Soccer was fun to play...but id never of liked it in a league....for me that was baseball...but im biased because i think it's the best sport to play and the hardest.

I like the new gimmicky posting style..well....not...really....

Oh and feel free to elaborate on this "more important countries" statement. On the world sports stage how can you possibly say that one country is more important than another when its possible for any country to excel at any sport.

Pyro · 04-14-2008, 08:28 PM

well in the end...since before the start of the 20th century...whichever country canada was forced too or chose to align with most...was the most prominent and most economically powerful at their time...refering to britain and than the states obviouslly.

I don't even know the answer to this question...but when it comes to making money...does soccer make more money in europe and south america etc...than sports like football and baseball in the states...

Cuz im sure all their games in every city that has a decent soccer team packs the house everygame like the yankees do here...and well almost every single nfl team.

another question too...is it cheap to watch futbol, soccer whatever...in europe...or do they make you pay outrageous pricies like we gotta pay here for our sports.
