Quick Thoughts On A Monday

Quick Thoughts on a Monday:

Remember that show “Family Affair”? Everyone under the age of 35 is shaking their head no. In summary, a NYC bachelor is forced to raise three of his sister’s kids after a car wreck kills the kids’ parents. Anyhoo, one of these kids had a doll named Mrs. Beasley, which she carried wherever she went - no matter what. At school, in the bathtub, in creepy Mr. French’s secret room, there was Mrs. Beasley.*

The reason that I bring this up is that I am starting to think Carlo Ancelotti has an equally unhealthy obsession with Petr Cech#. Cech really hasn’t been the same since he had his head caved in by Stephen Hunt in 2006. He increasingly looks lost on set pieces and his body language is similar to Steve Sax during his last days at 2nd base (pleasedonthitittome, pleasedonthitittome, pleasedonthitittome, pleasedonthitittome). Carlo, your team is the favorite to win the Premiership and has a good shot at Champions League – make the move to someone else now.

After viewing “Eddie and the Cruisers” this weekend for the first time in years (everyone under the age of 35 just clicked away for good), I was disappointed to realize that the band was a complete rip-off of Springsteen. Kind of like HYPERLINK "http://soccernet.espn.go.com/players/manager?id=150&cc=5901" Robert Mancini’s face compared to HYPERLINK "http://soccernet.espn.go.com/players/manager?id=1&cc=5901" Jose Mourinho’s

Speaking of Jose Mourinho, I hope everyone has seen him in the Dos Equis “Most Interesting Man in the World” commercials. To wit: “I don’t always coach in the EPL, but when I do, it will be Liverpool.”

*Aside #1 - the show featured a creepy butler who had to raise these kids, “Mr. French.” Think of a leering Mr. Belvedere. The show’s cast moved on to fun times afterwards. Mr. French died of a stroke in 1977, the kid with the doll OD’d in 1976 and he NYC bachelor (Brian Keith) killed himself in 1997.

#Aside #2 – compare Mrs. Beasley and Cech, resemblance? HYPERLINK "http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-Mrs-Beasley-Mattel-Doll-Talking
