Man, I forgot I had this song!
Had the best song pop up on my iPod while shuffling today. It's a mashup of Michael Jackson's "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" and Q-Tip's "Breathe And Stop". Damn, I need more stuff like that. Since I'm in the sharing mood, send me an e-mail at bigmaki at gmail dot com if you want a copy of the MP3. Anyone know if they sell CDs of this over in England, where this type of stuff is super-popular? This is stuff I really need to know.
Oh yeah, forgot another stereotypical Irish thing to do on St. Patrick's Day... Start a soccer riot. Good times.

Soccer riots are a British tradition, not Irish. The Irish are much too drunk to start soccer riots. The best riots in the British Isles however are located in Scotland when two teams from Glasgow play. When Celtic and Rangers play, the bobbies have to actually create a human wall between both sides fans to make sure that they don't brawl during the game. Crazy
You may have beaten us in basketball, but we will kick your ass in soccc-ahhhh.....
Ahhhh - the JU Intramural days - days I wish I could go back to SO badly, even if we did spend ENDLESS hours in that gym setting shit up and closing things down. Still were great times.
One particular memory that was fuckin' quality was the Puerto Ricans trying to start a riot with the baseball fuckers after a heated volleyball match.
Dunno how we got on this subject but yeah we could post a 5,000-word blog on all the brawls and near-brawls that generated at that intramural sweatbox. My fave was the Bayakos (Puerto Ricans) vs. the JU men's soccer team intramural hoops fight about 10 yrs. ago that started in a 100-person free-for-all right in the middle of the game and spilled outside before about 8 JSO cruisers showed up because ol' Limpy and Bulldyke realized they weren't gonna be able to do shit as JU's only security on-duty...definitely good times
While on the topic of JU Security, we all cannot forget our all-time (not) favorite, the Haitian Sensation, who's sole duty was to write fucking parking tickets. That dirty fool even went as far as to have my car booted one 5am, JU-Navigator-esque deadline night. What a cock....
Y'know Caz, those are my types of fans. Ones who don't have a blind love of their team, they have a blind hatred of the other.
"We weel keel you in socccah!" I wish you guys could have been there for that pickup game on the old Sanlando courts in Altamonte Springs... A good time was had by all. By "all" I mean my friends and I, not the eurotrash who could barely speak english that we absolutely mopped the floor with in basketball... And that was their comeback after getting their asses handed to them. Kinda sad.
Yeah, I'm surprised not a single riot broke out at JU, and definitely not at the soccer games. We did have a few melees, and those are better because melee is a much more fun word to say.
JU Security (especially the Haitian Sensation) can taste my hog. To this day, I still hate them. Bastards.
And guess who was the referee for that IM b-ball brawl between the Puerto Ricans and the soccer team? That's right, yours truly.
The Ricans were a bunch of hot headed wetbacks and the soccer team was a bunch of dirty Euro's who tried all of their bullshit soccer tactics on the basketball court. I couldn't call enough fouls to keep the game in control.
I was the one who ran to the JU security office in the Founders building. I'm sure I wasn't the most like guy on campus, but I really didn't care. I wasn't about to try to break up those two groups of retards. I was going to leave that up to the "professionals".
Being a JU intramural basketball referee - was that NOT by far the worst student job on campus?
Hands-down the worst. No question.
Actually, running the JU intramural basketball program was the worst job. Not only did you have to sub in and ref when people didn't show up for work, you had to be there every night for every game. I could have had help from Wendy Papson (hot) but she seemed more interested in doing homework every night than running an intramural basketball program...
Oh yeah, it also sucked because people would hate you when you canceled their games because they couldn't even get 5 people to be there on time, or even 15 minutes after on time.
Me: You forfeit because you're an idiot with only 3 other players and I've given you 15 minutes to get them here when you're really only supposed to have 10.
Idiot: YOU CANT DO THAT
Me: Yes I can, see ya next year.
Idiot: hey he just showed up were ready to play now
Me: Sucks to be you, doesn't it?
Idiot: SHEEEEEEYUT, SHEEEEEEEYUT
Me: I love my job.
And what does any of this have to do with Q-Tip and Michael Jackson, anyway?
Where did Michael Jackson go to school?
Brigham Young.
And who said Utah is full of conservative white people...
