A Sacrifice To The God's of Soccer...

It's all very scientific. You see, we've been talking about "wing problems", and "chemistry" problems, and all sorts of problems, and maybe if we fix that one, or this one, we'll be cured. However, has anyone thought about the possibility that we may have really pissed off the God's of Soccer? The Weather God's seem to have smiled upon us, for the most part, but I think the God's of Soccer are really peeved at us for some reason.

I suggest an offering! And only an offering befitting the horrendous scenario in which we find ourselves. Perhaps only then will we be brought out of the cavernous mire we find ourselves in.

Here are my suggestions on worthy offerings:

1- Deuce: He has more rep than all of us, and perhaps that will appease them!!

2- Old Ska: For his "realistic" (read "negative") views on the RSL situation.

3- Aero: No ONE man should have so much RSL gear!!! I mean, a hoodie AND a polo shirt!!!! Surely the god's writhe at the sight of such an one!

4- O'Brien: He's a player!! And we don't really need him anyway!

5- The BardGuy: Green Box to Post Rep Ratio. Need I say more?

6- Neil: He has an evil-looking avatar. EVIL!!!

7- Clarette: For impersonating a mythic creature. The gall!!!

8- mrstucki: For cutting his hair!! I think that's when this all started, did it not? It's like Sampson or something!!

9- CD Chivas: Because their team and record "fly in the face" of all that is good about soccer!

10- Loyal1: This sacrifice may benefit us for years and years to come as well!!

No offense, because your plan sounds like a decent one, but the soccer gods only take virgins.

CHIVAS. Ancient tradition would demand that we sacrifice a goat. Since we don't have an unblemished one, we'll sacrifice an imported one.

Darn it! I voted to sacrifice me before i saw that I could vote for seedy Cheetos....
Trigger happy...? Probably but now you know that not only did I offer myself up for sacrifice before i saw all the choices... i actually missed one of the cardinal rules of sacrificial thingies... that rule was pointed out by Old Ska so I suppose that I should withdrawl my vote for me!

Oh by the way in case you were wondering why I voted for me... I thought why not... It is just one more thing I can do for my team...

But I don't have matching adidas and i don't have a hankerin' for Marie Calenders Chicken Pot Pie...
Oh well maybe we should just give up a goat...

I voted Chivas, but if they go away, that would mean we're in last place in the tables until we get a W.

It appears we are trying to tick off the "Soccer God's"

If I remember the rules of sacrifice correctly you are supposed to sacrifice something worth while, yet we offer up Seedy Cheeto's?

I mean if we are going to sacrifice soemthing worthless we might as well collect everyones belly button lint to kindle the fire.

I vote for Duece because he is at least worth some good photo's. :D
