As Jim Croce once explained, there are some things you just don’t do, including:

1. Don’t tug on Superman’s cape.
2. Don’t pull the mask of the ol’ Lone Ranger.
3. Don’t stab Leroy Brown so many times he looks like a puzzle with a couple of pieces gone.
4. Don’t mess around with Jim.

…and in there somewhere he pretty clearly says “don’t kick in the wind”. I’d have to check Lyrics Freak, but I’ve got this video to back me up. From 101 Great Goals:

Maccabi Haifa took on Dynamo Kiev in a friendly today, ahead of Israel’s friendly with Ukraine, and the match was played in ridiculous weather conditions as the wind took on biblical proportions.

The friendly match was only 60 minutes long but there was enough time for one of the strangest goals ever seen. Kiev’s second saw Haifa goalie Assaf Mendes take a goal kick.

Mendes’ punt forward did travel some distance before incredibly coming back on itself past the stunned custodian.

Imagine how bad it would’ve been if he’d spit into that wind?

I really hope that this footage of the fracas in the Ukrainian Parliament earlier in the week becomes the next Hitler rant from Downfall, because it has that sort of potential. Another trail has finally been blazed; this subtitled saga chronicles the disdain of the Denver Broncos picking Tim Tebow with the 25th overall pick in last weekend’s NFL Draft.

Instead of throwing eggs, you should be thanking us for not allowing your wives and daughters to get cornholed by Big Ben in a Denny’s bathroom. Tim Tebow-ner will just ride the pine and then cry more than some knocked up slut on “16 and Pregnant.” –Ted Williams’ Head.

It’s a terrific start to what hopefully becomes a new (and presumably, copyright-free) meme. I’ve always wanted to visit the Ukraine. I really want some of those dolls that stack up inside one another. Read the rest of this entry »
