Conrad at it again
By: travis | May 20th, 2008The brilliant and inspiring writer/soccer player Jimmy Conrad has emerged once again to bring witty and insightful writing to ESPNSoccernet more lively. The full article can be found here, but if you’re too lazy to read it, here’s a sample or two:
I mean, is it possible that I could disagree with 20,000 Toronto fans using my body? Do I look like a break-dancing mime to you? Or better yet, maybe you’re a priest and through my bodily demeanor I somehow denounced your holy grail? Well, Archbishop Stott, in case you forgot, I’m the captain of my team and the natural presumption I have is that I get a little leeway in the “no talking to the ref” department because of my title.
This bit was probably the funniest:
A yellow card I get an automatic fine for, too, by the way, so a big “thank you” for that. So let’s make a deal: How about the next time you issue me a yellow card for doing the electric boogaloo, could you please just kick me in the crotch, as well, just to round out the absurdity? Can we pinky swear on that?
The piece is a worthwhile read and gives interesting insight from one of the most well-known players in MLS. Take the time to read it.
