I wish

Brownie or Gleeson could have scored last night. It doesn’t get much better than a goalie goal…

Sadly no

But maybe the NBA will help convince them to add a 2 point line

It breaks down like this

“several”

OK, plural.

“likely”

OK, not guaranteed plural

“announcements”

modified by several to be plural but not absolute it will be greater than one, one because we just got one today.

Pfft, you need to dig deeper to crack the illuminati code

If you take the 1st, 22nd, 26th,33rd, 37th, 49th, 55th, and 57th letters, they clearly spell “W ROONREY.” Draw your own conlusions…

Also, while I can’t make heads or tails of this “#rctid” insignia, I assume it must be some sort of code that contains the location of Benjamin Franklin’s secret bank vault.

Updates soon.

Fair enough

Didn’t mean to offend. Wasn’t aimed at you at all. I’d just been reading a lot or rumor stuff, and it was getting out of hand. Joke to stay sane. By which I mean my friend’s cousin totally saw Diego Forlan buy a house in Seattle last week.

Also Messi

He laughed and then added that statement as just a thought not as an offense to your comment.

I understand

it is hard to get Kejsare’s humor sometimes :) I have known him 28 years and sometimes it is hard for even me :)

I think I was condition by all the "announce" the announcements in the run up to this season

to realize not to put great amount of stock in what is tweeted. Ergo, I don’t follow twitter. That tweet, taking seriously, is like reading tea leaves.

I was doing exactly what you said about "getting out of hand"

Taking the rumor and getting way too immersed in every word from MP.
