USA 2-1 Uruguay: Own goal, and then a brawl afterwards. What mo, er, less could you ask for?

Midweek Mayhem Minutes from the Midwest couldn't have come any sooner.

Just when things couldn’t get any worse for the USA, Uruguay take a page of the playbooks of the ultras of Nueva Chicago and Tigres, and starts up a postgame brawl…in Toronto, Canada! Toronto, Canada, peoples! If there was a wrong place to start up a melee between young men (bring out my One Piece pirates, Naruto ninjas, and robot army for reinforcements!), it was here.

Baghdad, Iraq, should have been a place to do it. Send out some streakers were suicide bomb jackets to shut them up. But they never came to Toronto, and I don’t think they ever should, so to keep their youthful, troubled, weeaboo-free sanities intact.

The melee on the pitch tainted a 2-1 USA victory, thanks to the heroics of one Michael Bradley, and you wonder if the Ultimate Fighting leagues of the world were watching intently. Maybe some of these closet hooligans can make money off of this, albeit in a more proper setting.

Spirited group fight, wrong place to do it by far. End of post.

Woe-klahoma! Chokelahoma! The Great Depression returns to Okie-land again, and the Cowboys are smiling wide.

Hello, Bad News Bears.

Oh, what a drag for Oklahoma’s football team. The NCAA, that bunch of scumbags who make Congress look like forensic rejects prostrating toward Phoenix Wright, decided to stiff the Sooners even more. After some self-imposed penalties thanks to former QB Rhett Bomar and OL J.D. Quinn, the NCAA imposed:

*clears throat*

• All eight wins in the 2005 season vacated
• Two less scholarships for the 2008-09 and 2009-10 seasons
• One less coach that can recruit on campus

And that is just a few of what the NCAA decided to do. Naturally, Oklahoma president David Boren said, “Okay, if you want to lay the heavy artillery on one of the Big XII powerhouses, it’s on!” In other words…Boren decided to appeal. Baron de Montesquieu, you should be smiling in heaven, for once again, checks and balances are ruling American bureaucracy just as much as it is giving both sides headaches in a lose-lose situation the media papers love to feast on. It seems to actually give them something to write about, although the articles are nothing more than clichéd, unoriginal crap in attempt to get a paycheck boost.

Sigh. Such are American sportswriters. Disgrace to the journalism concept for what its worth. They're as bad as they come, though the British do it better.

Rammstein send help!
