The Dirty Sanchez and Writer’s Block

Kaka went for $92 million to Real Madrid. And anyone with access to a computer has postulated for weeks that this may be the first major domino to fall in what is knowingly called the “silly season” in football circles. Expect more massive amounts of insane figures to be rumored about and then actually thrown at players from Argentina to Zaire. Expect one player to be a lock for one club, only for a new report to surface that said player has no intention of ever leaving his current club, with the denouement being he just ends up at Manchester City. Eventually it could really drive you into the arms of your local drug merchant. Let’s face it the only way to deal with the informational overload any fan subjects him or herself to during the summer lull, is a full blown drug habit. Okay maybe not on par with Keith Richards, but something to take the bite off the waiting, shock, and incredulity that always occur during the “silly season”. Frankly I’m fully prepared to obtain a small, yet nasty, oxycontin addiction before the first kickoff for the 09/10 season. And with that said expect the next big domino to be this guy.
