Those are some lads

Whoo-Ah! Top of the group to ya! Wow what a difference a year makes. Now I won't get into theories and all that hippy mumbo jumbo but I'm sure if we all thought real hard we can figure out why Canada is doing well this Gold Cup. But it doesn't matter to me. I'm a "what have you done for me lately" kinda guy and right now it's winning!

The one thing that has sucked for the last two games was I've had to watch them on my computer. What a pain in the ass. My roomie was watching Eastern Promises on Tuesday night and tonight, unless I am a complete moron (there will be NO COMMENTS allowed on that subject, thank you) I did not see it on sportsnet. So I was subjected to the absolute worst commentating on this Setanta feed I was getting. These guys had no clue who was on our team or what they played. I mean, apparently our keeper was none other than body building guru Paul Sutton.


If that wasn't enough, I had no idea that our starting striker was none other than former WBC Middleweight Champion, Julian Jackson. That is right, never mind that he is now 48 years old, the guy can score! How many footballers can say they beat Terry Norris AND Thomas Tate?!


And let's not forget about the El Salvador game that I watched on some latino feed. At least I wasn't subjected to fake players. But I was subjected to this amazing commercial.



Guys I know what you're thinking - I WISH THEY MADE THIS FOR MEN!!

BEHOLD!


In conclusion, TV on the internet is fabulous. Team Canada are a real motley crew, but get the job done. And in future Setanta commentator, this is Simeon Jackson:


THIS is Julian Jackson
