Apparently Eugene and his brothers were goofing around about the new NBA slogan of "Where Amazing Happens" and how other words or phrases are substituted for "Amazing." For example, "The NBA... Where Playoff Drama Happens" or whatever. Of course, they not only butchered the slogan on the surface, but they also drove a stake through the heart of it. Furthermore, I couldn't let this opportunity pass by without adding my two cents, so here we go...
The NBA...
where on-court mini-people/mini-bus tours happen
where good fundamentals happen
where no college education happens
where fake injuries happens
where Bill Walker happens
where people read good happens
where strip-club shootouts happen
where caring (for the size of your paycheck) happens
where choking your coach happens
where a player stars in all-time classic films as Kazaam and Steel happens
where same said player says he can't be figured out just like the Pythagorean Theorem happens
where nicknames like Birdman happens
where no conspiracies happen
where Tank Johnson would be a choirboy happens
please don't hesitate to add to this list
Oh and Eugene and Dobber... we need to get our predictions back on board this weekend!!! Let's pick some games you bloody wankers. Yep. I said wankers.

Dobber's Match Day 31 Predictions
In the span of the last 10 minutes, Dobber Jr. blew up a diaper, spit up and pissed on Dobber Sr. Needless to say, I'm short for time in this week's posting. So without further adieu, here are Dobber's predictions for Match Day 31 with absolutely no analysis to support them whatsoever.
Blackburn 1 Tottenham 1 - Toilet Stinker Match of the Week
Arsenal 2 Manchester City 1
Fulham 0 Liverpool 2
Newcastle 0 Chelsea 3
Manchester United 2 Aston Villa 1
Blackburn 1 Tottenham 1 - Toilet Stinker Match of the Week
Arsenal 2 Manchester City 1
Fulham 0 Liverpool 2
Newcastle 0 Chelsea 3
Manchester United 2 Aston Villa 1
MatchDay 31
I have to apologize for the long absence. I don't exactly remember the past two weeks. I am pretty sure Ace dropped me a strong ruffy that has had me on a coke binge. All I do remember is waking up at Ace's house and watching a USA demolition of T and T. A few observations from that most memorable of nights:
1. Jozy is ready for the big time.
2. DMB is the best left winger acting like a LB that the USA has.
3. Timmy has turrets which is absolutely awesome.
4. The USA definitely worked on their back heels during the week.
On to the Predictions:
Blackburn 0-2 Tottenham
You might have Big Sam Blackburn Rovers but the Spurs not only have Harry Houdini but they also hold the EPL's best form over the previous 6 matches. Harry has got the best playing team right now and will run riot over the Rovers this weekend. Keane, Modric, and Pavulechenko will give Blackburn all they can handle. GO SPURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Arsenal 2-2 Manchester City
This was a tough game to call. Arsenal at home and with the most talented team by far on the pitch all signs pointed to a Arsenal route. But upon further review this is one of those classic slip up games for Arsenal. ManCity is a talented team that doesn't always play their best footy but Arsenal seem to overlook these teams, especially when they are at home. Add into that Wenger will probably replace a fit CM for one just coming off an injury and the team chemistry might be hurt. I see an entertaining game with plenty of chances but once again Arsenal will be incapable of finishing off a game ManCity team.
Fulham 1-4 Liverpool
My heart wants a close game with the smaller club, Fulham, coming through with a good result but Liverpool is just to talented and playing way to well at this moment. Gerard and Torres torment the Fulham defense all game and will come away with all three points from the Cottage.
Newcastle 1-2 Chelsea
Newcastle has a new manager but will have the same old results. This team is just not that good. The only thing that will save them from total destruction in that this game is at home and King Shearer has come to try and save the club from relegation.
Manchester United 1-1 Aston Villa
This is my upset special of the week. Manchester United have not played well and a week away from each other will not improve their form. This has a tie written all over it. Of course I could be wrong and ManU wins by 5. Go Villa!!!!!!!!!!
Until next time do not have sex with a man, unless your into that sort of thing, ACE!!!!!!!!!!

BPL Predictions 04/04 - 04-06
Hello sports fans! I know it's been awhile since you've heard from the trio of morons, but we all have good excuses. Dobber had a kid (or so he says). Eugene was too busy buying his signature "Eugene Turk" Nikes online. And yours truly, Ace McGee, has been too busy with his new subscription to Playboy, if you know what I mean. Anyway, this past international break was interesting as the US squeaked out a draw versus El Salvador and then blew out TNT. Then Argentina got smacked down by Bolivia. Oh, and the Mexicans lost to Honduras. After seeing that last result, I don't think I've ever laughed so hard in all my life. F*CK Mexico.
Now on to the predictions!
Blackburn 2 Spurs 0
This game looks interesting. Yeah... it might almost be as exciting as watching shit stink. Spurs cannot handle the type of game that Big Sam wants to play. It will be your stereotypical "knock down, drag out" game, except Spurs won't be fighting back much. Rovers will get their usual set piece goal and who knows, maybe an actual run-of-play goal just for fun. Harry Houdini has just about run of magic tricks for this under-talented team that is also the frontrunner for the Gayest Team in England award.
Arsenal 3 Man City 1
Man City are slop. Arsenal are playing their best soccer of the year. I figure the return of Fabregas to the lineup will start off a bit sluggish, but in the end will be a huge factor as the Gunners keep up their goal-scoring run. Adebayor is supposed to be back up top alongside Van Persie, which I believe is one of, if not the best, strike partnerships in the league. Look for both teams to be on the offensive from start to finish. Having said that, Robinho or Ireland will be dangerous, but Almunia will deny all but one as the Gunners power and finesse their way to victory.
Fulham 1 Liverpool 3
I would love to see Fulham pull another upset in this fixture, but let's be honest... Liverpool are on a mission and will not falter. In fact, it may be worse than my prediction as the Reds run away with this one. The only thing that could possibly be a factor is that I'm sure the international break will affect Liverpool more. I don't know too many Cottagers playing for their country, except Deuce "Don't Tread on Me" Dempsey. To be completely honest, I'm not sure if I know 2 players on the entire Fulham squad. Is that bad considering they are my 2nd favorite BPL team? Ah who gives a rat's ass anyway. Go Fulham! Beat those bloody Reds!
Newcastle 1 Chelsea 2
I guess Shearer is back. I guess too that the question is whether or not he can turn a bunch of shit-kickers into a soccer team. Will his influence be enough to make a difference? Against Chelsea, I highly doubt it. I would recommend watching the first 20-30 minutes as it will be a back-and-forth contest with lots of passion and pace. However, when Chelsea go up 2-0, the game will lose its luster.
Man United 3 Aston Villa 0
I have a bad (ok it's actually really really good) feeling that Villa have gotten so of course that they will easily fall into 6th or 7th before it's all said and done. United are 2-time champs because they eat alive teams that have no confidence. This match will be over early as United dominate possession through physical play, skill, and most importantly, intelligence. Even if Villa are lucky enough to score the first goal, United's resolve is too strong not to equalize and push through. If that does happen (Villa scores first), I think it will be interesting to see if Villa sit back and defend or if they keep going forward. Will O'Neill want to preserve the points? Or will he believe it's more important to give his players that missing confidence by looking for more goals? Hmmm we shall see.
Until next time, get drunk as often as you can. Just don't get so messed up that you shit against a tree, fall forward, puke, and then pass out with your penis in an anthole.

Dobber's Match Day 28 Predictions
Dobber's continued success in the Trio's table continues this week with Match Day 28. After a rousing second leg of the Champions League, the league's best all advance and find themselves looking to ride the high to continued success on the pitch. Will they succeed? Who the hell knows. But I'm going to do my best to get it right this week. A number of 4 for 5 week predictions has The Dobber right on the cusp of a clean sheet. And this week I'm smelling that clean sheet. That, or I'm smelling Little Dobber's shit filled diaper he just blew up.
Hull City 1 Newcastle 0
Bet you thought this one had "Toilet Stinker Match of the Week" written all over it, didn't you. While it has the possibility and perhaps could be the "Dingleberry Match of the Week," Dobber's got a better toilet match this week. Still, this match will be mostly a snoozefest, until Hull City steal a victory with a goal in the 92nd minute. And that late winner ladies and germs is why this match avoids the toilet title.
Manchester United 2 Liverpool 1
The Dobber wishes he had the balls to pick Liverpool over ManU this week, but he just can't do it. As much as it pains me to say, ManU is just plain solid. They are deep, play great footy, and continuously get results. While they face a formidable opponent in Liverpool, they're still going to get the results.
Chelsea 3 Manchester City 0 - Toilet Stinker Match of the Week
Dobber hates both of these clubs. Both want to spend, spend, spend their way to the top. Chelsea isn't too bad at this strategy. They buy quality players while at the top of their game. Man City on the other hand absolutely blows at it. They constantly overspend for players who either can't get along, or are past their prime. Did I mention I hate these clubs? Cause I do. And that's why I'm dubbing this match the "Toilet Stinker Match of the Week." Mainly because I hate both clubs and wish somehow a giant airplane would fly Stamford Bridge and dump their sewage all over the pitch. But in reality, this is the "Toilet Stinker Match of the Week" because Chelsea will destroy Man City and this won't be much fun to watch.
Aston Villa 1 Tottenham 1
After a horrid start to the season, Tottenham has finally strung together a series of results that find them in the middle of the pack. Meanwhile, after Aston Villa's early season success, they are sputtering as of late. Fortunately for Aston Villa, Arsenal has done pretty much nothing over the same span and Villa still sits in the coveted 4th spot in the table. Villa will still stay in the 4th spot after this weekend, but Arsenal will be nipping on their heals, when Villa is only able to compile a draw against a squad they should walk over.
Arsenal 2 Blackburn 0
Arsenal escaped Rome this week with a thrilling PK showdown and find themselves on two possible runs at glory in both the CL and the FA Cup. Unfortunately the EPL has not been as kind to the Gunners, as they continuously drop points to inferior opponents. After Arsenal's putrid February I swore that I would not predict a Gunner victory until they finally pulled their heads out of their arse's. Arsenal's heads are finally out of their proverbial arse's and will regain form in gaining 3 points when they should gain 3 points.
Hull City 1 Newcastle 0

Match Day 28
It seems like its been forever since I have posted. But with rest comes perspective and knowledge. With perspective and knowledge come a big Eugene victory this week. i am feeling 5 for 5.
Hull City v Newcastle
Hull City is at home and I am dreaming of seeing Newcastle in the Championship next year. I am feeling like Hull City will recapture their early season form and prove their worth and their credentials to stay in the EPL. I hope Newcastle enjoys life in Championship next year.
Hull City 2-1 Newcastle
Aston Villa v Tottenham
Does any two teams playing these weekend need a win like both these teams. Tottenham needs a win to cement their place in the EPL for next year and Villa need a to keep their hopes alive for a Champions League spot and the big money that comes with it. Villa comes alive for this game and Harry can do nothing about it.
Aston Villa 3 - 1 Tottenham
Chelsea v Manchester City
I could not care less about these two teams and this game in particular. If both teams can loss i would vote for that outcome but since that is not possible i will have to make a prediction. Chelsea's defense is not as strong as everybody makes it out to be and ManCity's offense seems to be hitting on all cylinders. I see an upset.
Manchester City 2-1 Chelsea
Arsenal v Blackburn
BLOWOUT!!!!!!!!!All we need to know is that Blackburn's goalkeeper is Paul Robinson, yeah that Paul Robinson.
Arsenal 4 - 0 Blackburn
And on to the main event..............
Manchester United v Liverpool
Both teams look to be in pure form. If anyone saw either teams Champions League matches these teams were pure class. I so want the title race to be something more than just a forgone conclusion. I want Liverpool to make a run at the title and possibly win it. Old Trafford might be United's fortress but they haven't faced a Torres/Gerrard combo that seems to be in tune. This might be the game of the year and FSC has once again failed to deliver. UPSET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Liverpool 2-1 Manchester United. Torres and Gerrard with back breakers. Go Liverpool!!!!
Until next time.............don't eat where you shit and don't shit where you eat!!!!!!!!
Hull City v Newcastle
Hull City is at home and I am dreaming of seeing Newcastle in the Championship next year. I am feeling like Hull City will recapture their early season form and prove their worth and their credentials to stay in the EPL. I hope Newcastle enjoys life in Championship next year.

BPL Predictions 03/14 - 03/16
So I was playing NCAA March Madness '08 this week (I bought it used for $8). I always change the names of new recruits to give them the most ridiculous names ever because it's quite funny seeing the NCAA Player of the Week as Raul Duke or Slappy Wilson. Well, I was toying around with it and apparently pushed the X button, which gave him a random name. I was not aware of this, so you can imagine my excitement when my point guard's name became Colby Manhand. Manhand? Seriously? Why was this name even an option? Needless to say, my curiosity got the best of me so I decided to try it again, and this time Idi Nax came up. Really?? What the hell kind of names does this game think are simply "random"? It only gets more ridiculous when I say that as coach of the Indiana State Sycamores, Coach Riki Tiki Tavi, I have taken the program to a 54 game winning streak and two consecutive national titles while still in the MVC. Who was the starting point guard you might ask? Yep, you guessed it. Colby Manhand.
Anyway, the next day I whipped Eugene's ass at FIFA like I usually do. He tried the old 7-2-1 defensive formation, which got a pretty decent laugh from my boy SRed7 in Calera, Alamama. What up dOOd?!!! Yeah, it's 7 defenders (5 in or in front of the box and 2 on corners) 2 deep wingers, and a striker all by his lonesome. Good times...
On to the show... I look to regain my place back at the top of the 3 Morons' "Nostradamus" list. Actually, I have no idea where I stand in points right now. Does anybody know? Or care?
Hull City 1 Newcastle 1
This is definitely the “Sticky and Hard-To-Wipe-Clean Pooper” Match of the Week. Congratulations Hull on the great start to your season! Too bad it was just an illusion and you’re on track to be flushed back to where you belong! The Championship! Yay! Congratulations Newcastle on your horrible start and continually disappointing season! You should also be relegated because you suck! Ya-hoooooo! Anyway, the paragraph you just read will be 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 times more exciting than the match. We may see some goals, but most likely we’ll see a bunch of nothing. Besides, who really gives a rat's ass?
Man United 2 Liverpool 1
I think this has the potential to be a fabulous game. Apparently some “hate” comments have come out to fuel the fire as bulletin board material. Which team will be able to quell the flame though? Old Trafford obviously offers a comfort zone for United, but Liverpool will be jacked up for this one so I think the home field advantage might not be so important. What will be important, however, is the consistency and class of United versus that of the Reds… and United win by a goal!
Chelsea 3 Man City 0
I have a reason to think that this match will not even be close. Chelsea had a tough match midweek in the CL and will be looking to continue their run. Plus, they will be playing with the belief that Liverpool can take a point (or 3) from their Sunday match with United and begin to narrow the gap to a first-place spot in the BPL. Man City are already looking to next year, and I don’t really think they will have much trouble closing out a spot in Europe. What do they have to play for? Hughes? I doubt it since he will get canned at season’s end. Pride? I doubt that either because their “leader” is a sell-out. Most of them will be gone in the summer when the owners clean house (except for stars) and look to fit in more star power.
Aston Villa 1 Spurs 2
I’m back to believing (and praying) that Villa have run out of steam for the time being. They may have the lead on Arsenal by 3 points, but I think they realize they still have a mountain to climb with the difficulty of their remaining schedule. They have truly been on a run of poor form lately and need something to cheer about again, but a match against a motivated and well-coached and a fairly hot team in Spurs is not the answer. Spurs go up two goals before Villa snatch a late goal making the end exciting. I’m sure Spurs will be excited about the win, but they won’t be happy to help out their arch rivals in reaching the coveted fourth place.
Arsenal 2 Blackburn 0
Arsenal’s defense has been really good as of late (except for that strange goal vs. Roma), and their offense is heating up at the right time. Blackburn stole some points against Fulham midweek and have taken into Big Sam’s theory… as many set pieces, crosses, and men in front of goal as possible. I don’t think Arsenal allow the Rovers to come into the Emirates this week and take anything. In fact, Arsenal’s BPL goal-drought will end with at least a pair, and they get another clean sheet too.
Until next time chaps... don't ever wear chaps or say "that chaps my ass." You'll either look or sound like a jackass or a flamer. Actually, I'm laughing my ass off right now because "that chaps my ass" is really funny to say. In fact, I'm laughing so hard, my ass is chapping. Uh... later.

Until next time chaps... don't ever wear chaps or say "that chaps my ass." You'll either look or sound like a jackass or a flamer. Actually, I'm laughing my ass off right now because "that chaps my ass" is really funny to say. In fact, I'm laughing so hard, my ass is chapping. Uh... later.
