Our most famous alums fairly recently are an NFL Rookie of the Year, Most Valuable Player, and all-time great, and a guy who was the unofficial con man of the year 20 years ago or so. Married a woman who was a leading Republican official, and robbed her blind to feed a cocaine habit, leaving behind a trail of broken promises and bad debts. The best part about it was that she was particularly appalled he'd lied about his religion (he was raised as a Jew).

Few schools have produced both African American football players and Jewish con men of such merit.

One of my former (very former) close friends (same school, failed to graduate a year earlier, or ever, I suppose) was at least as wild a con man, but failed to achieve national notoriety.

So maybe everyone doesn't benefit...

David Bowie went to my school. <cool>
 
West Ham beat Chelsea 3-0 last season, oh for a repeat but I fear the Chelsea luck will click back in. A loss would send ripples and so would a draw. I can't believe this but come on you bubbles.

Makes it sound like they lost it. The game against West Brom showed it has never gone anywhere.
 
If a Terry ever got on the throne,i reckon the would be an immediate revolution to remove him,the only throne he'll ever be on is the one in his bathroom <laugh>
 
Marion has been reminding People how classless he is by criticising Mike Riley for apologising to WBA about the penalty Chelsea got,he's put pressure on the ref's by saying every time they rule in Favour of the Chav's they will come under extra scrutiney,although not in those words,everyone knows it wasn't a penalty except him and the chav supporters

I don't even think that Mourinho believes what he said. He's playing the media, as usual.
Ferguson did the exact same thing, too. Poor result or performance? Get the press talking about something else.
 
Chelsea have lived by the skin of their teeth in recent years and I don't know how with so many managers they've done it. You watch that penalty be the start of a run of a lot of good luck starting again. Had they lost at home to Albion and considering the loss the week before then their true form would have started to show but that penalty will kick start it all over again. I hope I'm wrong. I have a faint glimmer for West Ham tomorrow.

I think you should change it to "reminding people how classless he is"
 
tots, had they lost then I think a long run of bad form would have followed, I think that penalty might just have saved them from it or for a while anyway. Mourinho somehow seems out of control of himself saying he'll make nine changes etc and it will reflect in the team's play.
 
I've got the ps4 pre ordered but i'm kind of tempted to cancel it until some decent games actually come out
