Dear Tom Holmoe

[tooblue]

You just don't learn.

SeattleUte: the Roberto Rojas of CUF.

[Portland Ute]

I have never in my history of message boards seen one poster get owned as much as Seattleute has in this thread. Seriously this is hilarious to watch, Seattleute might as well get his balls out of Gwendolyns purse and give them to PAC.

Ah...Gwendolyn. Charles was such a lucky guy. Not to mention he was "in charge" of Nicole Eggert.

I always knew that PAC was a sacred cow here. I never knew Holmoe was so much one. I'm sure if I came here with pictures of the two of them in an incriminating situation everyone would scream and yell that I just got owned by them.

Translation: "I'm taking my ball and going home" The last and final step in denial or when insults just don't have the intended affect.

C'mon, you are every bit a sacred cow here as PAC is. Pettiness is not your style. Man up, take your ass kicking from him like a trooper and try to do better next time.

What happened in that clip? Some dude was hit by a firework and the teams agreed to end the game?

Are you suggesting something here about the efficacy of insults? I need to know about this, for obvious reasons.

[Jeff Lebowski]

What a great thread.

I love SU.

It varies greatly and can depend on many factors really; the individual, the timing of the insults in relation to recent events, the agregious nature, the general consensus among the stone-throwers, etc.

I don't claim to know the true efficacy of insults but having been called a warthog-faced baffoon one too many times in the same afternoon as suffering through the indignance of a flat tire on the interstate at rush hour I can tell you that the effects can be devasting.

In the video, the Chilean team was losing to Brazil 1 - 0. If they lost the game they would be eliminated from going to the World Cup. The Chilean goalie had a razor blade in his glove and cut himself with it pretending that he was hit by a firework thrown onto the field. That gave the Chilean coach an excuse to end the game and perhaps preserve their chances of qualifying.

The plan backfired. Video replay exposed the ruse. The goalie and coach were banned from FIFA for life and Chile was not allowed to participate in a world cup for many years.

While watching Chile vs Brazil in a quarter final World Cup match today I began reading this thread. Some people will do or say anything ... it was a perfect storm.

So FIFA is tougher on corrupt coaches than the NCAA. Is that your point?

I ... I had no idea ... I don't know what to say, Blueintheface ... other than that you probably got what you deserved that day.

[il Padrino Ute]

I know this addition won't change SU's demagogical status here on CUF but I hope that at least it is a footnote to his legacy.

His legacy is the refusal to admit when he is wrong.

I don't know Roberto, your'e obviously smarter than I am.

[il Padrino Ute]

Practice-gate was a lot bigger deal than cookie-gate or hamburger-gate.

I agree with this completely.

Vomitous mass.
