Twellman Makes Faces, Relives Past Failures on ESPN

TTKiss

It's gotta be hard to be TT. He leaves the cozy confines of a New England winter to come down to NYC to do a load of media for MLS and what happens? Some anchor on ESPN has to remind him of everything that has ever gone wrong in his life. If he wasn't on TV with his collar popped like some fratdaddy who calls everyone "chief", I would actually feel sorry for him.

What does she bring up? Various MLS Cup failures. The never-ending, never-gonna-happen move to England. Even his secret baseball past (which is maybe only a negative to me). Hell, I'm shocked she didn't bring up any high school rejections from the opposite sex.

And when she gets to baseball he shoots himself in the foot by revealing that his Grandpappy played for the Yankees. Realizing that he may have well just stood in the middle of Boston Common and screamed "I hate chowder, Sam Adams and America's colonial heritage", he follows up the revelation with a quick "but I don't want that to get out."

Sorry chief, but I think it already is.

He also almost says "Me and my brother used to play with ourselves..." at the end there. SMH.

Not so! She didn't mention that popped collar thing he going on. If you ask me, there is a lot wrong with that. Perhaps she was just stunned, as I was, to see him not wearing a youth large sized shirt like he does on the pitch.

Sorry, COMPLETELY OFF TOPIC for blog author:

The three amigos (Martek, mr3d, and playtherapy) at the Nutmegged Blogspot http://nutmegging.blogspot.com/ have decided to host the 1st Invitational MFLS Fantasy League Bloggoff- using Mark Wheeler's excellent MFLS system.

This competition will be comprised of a fantasy league and a prediction league. Bragging rights for the whole kit and kaboodle will mean having the most points combined from both competitions. Each blog can only have one team- though decisions can be made by a collective (as we will do).




1. Should you decide to join, go to http://www.mfls.com/, and create a team. Name the team after your Blog Site. When choosing players, printing off the spread sheet of players' salaries and 2007point totals is helpful.

2. Then pick the Division "Blogger MFLS Invitational Champs". The password for joining our division is-
bloggy

Email me if you have any trouble. playtherapy@hotnmail.com

Results will be published at the Nutmegged Blog site but feel free to write about the competition on your own site.

Cheers
Jeff (playtherapy)

If that little motherfucker said "fortunately" or "to be honest" one more time in that interview, he should've strangled with his stupid popped collar while wearing an old pair of Bongo womens jeans.
