I’m really happy to be sitting in the Birmingham Airport, on free WiFi. I can’t figure out why more people don’t give this stuff away for free, it makes this little lame airport seem classy, real southern classy style. Orlando International tries to charge like 5 bucks for 20 minutes or some crazy junk for WiFi. Maybe I will move to Birmingham for the airport Wifi and of course opportunity. It’s known as the land of opportunity. Or at least it’s in the land of opportunity. But then again so is Orlando, but Orlando’s airport doesn’t have WiFi.
Quickly, I don’t even want to talk about the Copa. It was a wasted tournament. Anyone who thinks Drew Moor is good at soccer is wrong. Straight damn wrong. He is bad at soccer. Not even close to National team level. But I read about 25 good reviews of his Copa America performances, and bad reviews of Jonathan Bornstein, who although he made that horrible backpass, played fairly well and was a creator going forward. Bornstein – Future, Drew Moor – Suckypants. And don’t get me into ole Backpass Johnson.
Tonight, after the US’ huge performance against Poland in the U-20 World Cup (6-1, Freddy Adu hat trick) ESPN, in their infinite wisdom, has decided to show the US-Brazil game on the main network, good news, good exposure. I’m glad. I expect a US win now. I don’t care what people say, US killed a Poland side that held Brazil in check with only 10 men. The US has to beat them. And i bet Danny Szetela scores again, he just seems to find himself in front of goal. and freddy wants to go to Europe, so I think he will score as well.
Off of soccer.The Orlando Magic just signed Rashard Lewis to a max contract. Which is pretty good, except that Darko Milicic’s agent is throwing a tantrum now because the Magic made Darko a free agent to sign Lewis and Cornstein (Darko’s agetn) is tantrumming, says Darko will never play for the Gic again. I think Darko is going to be a really good basketball player, i think he will be an all star level player. I want to keep him. Not as much as I want Rashard Lewis. I’ve also heard that the Gic are trying to trade Hedo Turkoglu for Ron Artest straight up. Ronny is a nutcase, but on the court he is great. Make the trade. Then trade some loose players to resign Darko. I don’t care how it goes, just do it. If Otis Smith can pull that off, then he doesnt suck. But as off right now I still feel that he is under par.If we get the trade our starting lineup will be.Jameer Nelson – PG, Ron Artest – SG, Rashard Lewis – SF, Darko Milicic – PF, Dwight Howard – C.I like that lineup alot, tough, young, talented. That’s a top 4 in the east lineup. Just by adding Rashard, we are not contenders. The good news is that Dwight is on the up. That was just bout the worst ever write up on the magic. I promise I will do better ne
