you cant search for 20 cause of the year which has 20 in it, and will for the next few years i think, so I think this person (that i quoted) should be banned for sure

That was more for that specific user, but yes I have been lax with rules in the past, I will admit to that. However I think we're good now on entries, and it's all meaningless anyway, he's not going to score if I allowed voting until matchday 38

I think a lot of USMNT posters who so avidly defended Jozy have some explaining to do. A real come to Jesus moment is necessary imo. The cognitive dissonance can't last much longer, we have HD footage of how bad he is.

I just rewatched Snatch and the scene with Tyrone running away from the thugs reminded me a lot of Jozy trying to get away from defenders, with a perfect allegory of the dogs/rabbit thrown in there too. Guy Ritchie is a bit of a football visionary I think, he also did the Nike ads.

Jozy "represented" his country in the last World Cup, and probably will in the next one too, for reasons that are beyond my ability to comprehend. I'd think we could get a #17 shirt taped to a training cone or something more useful. World class.

reminder that at the last World Cup Jozy was objectively worse in a similar role than Rory Fallon of New Zealand (so had far worse service than Jozy from midfield) who at the time was 'starring' for Plymouth Argyle Reserves

Jozy is maybe the 3rd best forward on a bad team. Eddie Johnson is in fact tremendously superior.

Seems like a poor prediction this.

Jozy Altiscore might not reach my lofty prediction of 24 (twenty four) goals in his first year at Sunderland A.F.C. But Jozy Altidore is currently the hopes and dreams of the USMNT. I'm rooting for him along with all of the fans of Jozy Altidore. Be it the Barclay's Premier League or janitorial duties.

https://medium.com/sports-page/46c5c30cd313

quote:

Upon meeting Altidore, two things are immediately apparent: 1. He has the upper body strength of Bruce Banner gone mad, one reason why it’s so difficult to take him down in the box, and 2. He’s the soccer star America has dreamed of. Powerful, quick and with a supernatural fire in his belly to score. A man with a plan.

The United States could have done a lot worse than find a superstar in Altidore. A well-spoken young man with a smile that could melt any girl’s heart and a hearty laugh that you could pick out of a crowd, Altidore makes money off his physical skills, but has won fans with his charisma and character.

Really, there must be dozens of shitcloggers in the MLS who are worth a shot. One of them must be worth seeing if he's able to run in a straight line without falling over.

I hope you are all reading jozy's weekly blog

quote:

SUNDERLAND, England -- Good morning, everyone. I just sat down for a little breakfast as I start my day and decided to break out the laptop to work on my latest blog entry.

I might as well start things off by addressing what everyone else has been discussing following Saturday's tough loss against Arsenal at the Stadium of Light. Yes, that would be the goal that wasn't a goal.

Honestly, there isn't much more that I can say that I've already said since the match. It was a situation where Arsenal defender Bacary Sagna and I were battling for the ball, I was able to fight him off, gain possession and finish the scoring opportunity. Unfortunately, the official didn't allow play to continue.

Of course, not getting my first Premier League goal of the season and helping my team pull even with Arsenal at the time was disappointing. But sometimes those things happen. It's part of the game. I've been in similar situations where I and/or my team have been the benefactor.

Unfortunately, that was one of those times a particular ruling didn't work in my team's favor. As a firm believer that all things even out in the long run, I am sure a similar situation will work in our favor at some point during the campaign. Until then, I will keep working hard and remain confident in myself, knowing the goals will come.



Moving on, I did get to witness something pretty amazing this past weekend. My mother, who was visiting from Florida with my brother, Janak, and my niece, Aaliyah, and I got up early Sunday and decided to go watch the BUPA Great North Run.

Being new to the region, I had never heard of the race but was immediately blown away by the mass of people partaking in it. The road race is actually the second-largest half marathon in the world, with somewhere in the neighborhood of 54,000 people competing in the annual event in the northeast of England.

That's like selling out a match at the Stadium of Light and having 5,000 others stuck outside not being able to get in the venue. Basically, what I'm trying to say is that's a whole lot of people! To say what my mom and I were able to witness was cool would be an understatement. It was beyond impressive to see firsthand so many people from around the world competing in such a massive race.

On that note, it's time for me to sign off and get ready for a training session in preparation for Saturday's match on the road at West Bromwich Albion. Obviously, our goal for this match is the same one we carry into every contest -- get a win and three points. So hopefully we're able to put together a strong performance and accomplish the task in front of us.

Until next week, my friends ...

jozy knows goals will come

They could get a mediocre striker from MLS...Robbie Keane and Thierry Henry cost too much though.
