undercover

as i was heading out to grab a coffee this morning, i ran into one of the mail room guys:

Mail Room Guy: hey, matt, i got a package for you, want me to leave it at your desk?

me: oh, yeah, that'd be awesome, thanks!

MRG: cool, i'll drop it off.

me: sweet, thanks. (i turn to head out the door.)

MRG: hey, matt, one of my coworkers, he thinks you're (indistinguishable).

me: (walking back) huh?

MRG: he thinks you're a cop!

me: what?!

MRG: yeah, he sees you walkin' in the alley and he says "that guy's a cop."

me: no way! that's so funny!

MRG: yeah, he say "that guy dress like a cop..." he think you're police.

me: (laughing) oh man, that's awesome! well, tell him i AM a cop and i got my eye on him...

MRG: (laughing) ok!

go home, becks

i can't tell you how happy it makes me that the galaxy (may they forever lose to the quakes) fans are consistently booing david beckham since his return from europe. no matter what he says in the media, it was a wholly self-serving decision to play for milan and a huge "F you" to the LA fans. it's about time american soccer fans stood up for themselves and demanded some level of quality from the clubs and players they support.
