Mary is afraid of commitment - but she needs massages. More importantly, for you would be suitors, you should know that Mary fears commitment. Yesterday, she revealed to me that she has relegated Spurs to a former favorite team status. Only an American could do this. Mary revealed that she has become a fan of Aston Villa - and more importantly, during this revelation, she admitted that she did not know how to pronounce the Lions name. Ridiculous. So, here are some factoids from Wikipedia.
Aston Villa - also called the Lions or the Ville or the Villans.
based in Birmingham - so archrival is cleverly Birmingham City.
colors are claret and sky blue - the uniforms are good looking.
the club has been in the premiership since its inception
the club holds the record for most goals in top flight
the club's top two keepers are both Americans - Friedel and Guzan
Okay - enough about Aston Villa as a club. Now some advice for you would be Lions fans hoping to jump with Mary on the bandwagon. She lasted less than a year as a Spurs fan. She chose the club because of their uniforms. So, all in - not exactly the foundation for deep commitment. I'd be careful of the Visigoth.

ReplyDeleteI feel like I am being mis-represented in this blog post.
ReplyDelete1. I need massages to alleviate a middle trapezius spasm. It is a medical condition.
2. I am not afraid of commitment...people are just afraid of me so I don't get the chance. RARR.
3. I didn't say I was officially switching teams. I was just merely pointing out that I was only following Spurs as an introduction to the league. I think it is silly to pick a team based on who your brother likes. I am just trying to spread my wings and fly solo, Tom. Is that so bad?
4. The reasoning behind wanting to be an Aston Villa fan is not only because of their uniforms. I just said that to make myself appear more girly--since boys are afraid of me as is. See #6.
5. Not knowing how to pronounce Villa is legit...it is pronounced differently here in Texas (Vee-ya) as it would be in Spanish. The "ll" sounds like a "y."
6. Truth, I am a Visigoth.
