WannaBe: Absolutely 'crazy' sequences... Usc throws an INT, the defensive lineman running with the ball then gets hit and fumbles the ball into and out of end zone for touchback (no TD) Next play, Usc goes from their own 20 to N'Western's 20 (60 yards).

WannaBe: Another not important thing that I noticed, as a premium member when I visit ChessGames.com Statistics Page page, I see ads. Not that a big deal. Sure CG.com have more important things to fix.

  WannaBe: I am now accepting voting on the worst sport call/non-call in my forum, the details can be found by clicking on my name or Bugs Bunny avatar.

Is it Maradona's Hands of God, or USA basketball losing the Russians in the Olympics, maybe it is the Ireland-France World Cup Qualifying, possibly the USA-Brazil Women's World Cup, or the perfect baseball that wasn't for Detroit last year?

Cast your vote, in my forum (I am too lazy to run all over the place tracking down your vote. One vote per member name, if you have sock puppets, I am also too lazy to find out and track them down too...)

Again, details are in my profile... I am using/doing this as a test, for the 2011 Caissar Award.

Jul-28-11  Oliveira: My vote no doubt goes to Maradona's "Mano de Dios" against England for the importance and all the surroundings of that match, with Argentina's humiliating defeat at the Malvinas War four years before, and also for Diego's nerve to do it.

  WannaBe: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vR5U... (Grade C+) no where is it as good as http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrEk... (A--)

I mean c'mon, taping the sheet music to the back of the person in front of you?! Professional musicians who knows their stuff, should not need sheet music to play Bolero.

You think Yo-Yo Ma or Isaak Perlmann need sheet music!?

  WannaBe: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4sA... is probably the best video/spoof by Weird Al. (And yes, I am a huge fan of Al... and Doors.)

  WannaBe: Greetings from NoCal! =)
Aug-08-11  whiteshark: <WannaBe: <What ever happened to your avatar?>>

It wondrously disappeared during my 6 months of chess abstinence.

Well, chaos, panic and disorder- my work here is done, anyway. :D

  WannaBe: <midknightblue> I have 'moved', well, not completely out of SoCal yet, but I got a job with my old company in San Mateo, NoCal.

Today is my first day at work, and things are going just as expected.

I will try to make it to the 2012 National Open.

  WannaBe: <midnightblue> I have not yet checked into the NoCal schedule for chess tournaments. (I only arrived on Sunday, the 7th...)

But, if I should find anything, I will let you know!

I do not know, was this the same group in 1935/6 that came together? Is or will this be the same group the will ask what is promised? (Much like the WWI veterans did in U.S. with march on D.C. and in Germany?)

If you promise nothing, no one will expect anything, if you promise the world, people will expect the universe.
