Saw Indy last night - a bit over the top, too concerned with the effects and you could see the video game being created at certain points. Also saw Get Smart, which was hilarious.

After reading about the Gimp suit, I think he made the right choice.

Update on Dino? (From Wikipedia): In February 2008 it was announced that Dino Baggio decided to come back from retirement and join the Terza Categoria team Tombolo—a team near his hometown, which is being coached by Dino's very first coach, Cesare Crivellaro.

[Archived] Mark Hughes - Good Choice ?
American replied to Ste B's topic in Football Messageboard Archive
Duff had one good season not playing for Souness, Jansen has had none (for different reasons). Dunn hasn't been the same since Souness stole 5 million from the Big Club for him. Everyone says he was lucky inheriting them. Ask BFS how "lucky" he was getting Duff and Bruce how "lucky" he was to get Dunn. To be fair, they were both really good managers for us. Sparky just had better timing in leaving. Edit: For those that look at Yorke and DePedro and laugh, ask Jim/John and LeChuck, respectively, what they thought of the players before they stunk up the joint. -

[Archived] Mark Hughes - Good Choice ?
American replied to Ste B's topic in Football Messageboard Archive
Then good luck finding a decent manager to replace him when he finally does leave a year or so from now once we get the reputation of "holding back careers." If they want him, they will come in with a decent offer which we will accept. I doubt they will want him though, and the "domino effect (did I use that right T4E?)" will involve clubs that won't want him either. -

[Archived] Citeh To Sack Barton?
American replied to LeChuck's topic in Football Messageboard Archive
He didn't make "one mistake" he made a series of boneheaded decisions that would have him in jail for much longer than 6 months if he weren't a professional footballer. He's no better than most of the people he will be in there with. -

Didn't the Hoosiers sing "All you zombies?" -
It's not hindsight Stu, it's having seen Reid play at RB!

Replacing Kane for Taylor, still waiting for an answer from some of our R6 bashers....

Viagra or Cialis should sponsor it.... -
I was just thinking that I should have saved myself by saying that this was part of my point!!
-
Sorry was thinking Kane, either way Taylor wouldn't have done worse out of position!!
-
I'd like to know how playing Taylor today would have been worse than playing Reid....
-
But is it? Why not play Treacy as a sub, as he can't do any worse? And if he does do worse, then you know in the summer to go find another left midfielder for cover. I can see both sides of the argument, but I sincerely hope that when the benches are expanded to 7, the extra slots are used for youth players who can be thrown on at the end of a 2 or more goal match.

The funny thing is that people say that Bentley shouldn't go to Liverpool or one of the other big 4 because he'll just sit on the bench. Liverpool worked out really well for Bellers, as well. (Oh, and if your quote is from the series premiere, he says "..... or candy." Because he doesn't realize there are a bunch of kids listening to him. - Just re-watched the episode the other day.) (Edit is for a misspelling.)

Thanks! -
Again, playing Olsson for 15 minutes didn't kill us and didn't cost us any positioning or money. Playing Pedersen constantly has.

[Archived] Glazer Set For Utd
American replied to ainscough99's topic in Football Messageboard Archive
Abramovich has spent less on/with Chelsea than the Glazers (adding up purchase price and player costs), and he also has some prime London land. Chelsea will not implode if he leaves. People don't recognize that buying up all of the talent for a London club on the fringes of the big time was the same as paying that much for a club with a larger profile. Chelsea is now a huge brand worldwide. As for United, weren't they already supposed to have gone under with the loans by now? Looking at the capital appreciation, the Glazers would make a tidy profit if they were to sell tomorrow. They haven't even started to touch on the internet earnings potential of the club, as well. -

I would actually say that MacLaren was good at Boro - look at them now. He just wasn't cut out for the pressures of the national team. It's a far different animal than managing a club day to day. (Quick fingers) That being said, I think that most times with a smaller club, managers have a shelf life. You're trying to get the most out of the least talent, and I'm sure it wears on the manager and the players. Managers of larger clubs tend to be successful longer because they can bring in more players and have about 3 choices for each position, so don't mind if one of the choices fails.

Probably left about 6 months too late, but other than that, it's hard to argue with this post.

So, he's about the same level as Moko?
