Pervs! Kidding.
I just need to plan so that when I can...*cough*....legally drink, (not next season, but the season after...), that can be the year the Mavs finally do something.

Oops. Now I feel like some kind of old pervert. My bad.

Ok, people. Now, this was your challenge:
Liverpool heroes parade cup
27/05/2005 08:41 - (SA)
Liverpool - New European champions Liverpool got a rousing hero's welcome from home-town fans on Thursday, but behind the scenes pressure as growing on Uefa to let the club defend their le next season.
An estimated 500 000 Liverpudlians lined the 16-kilometre route towards the Anfield stadium as the victorious side - and its hard-won silverware - travelled through in a red, open-top bus emblazoned with the words: "Liverpool FC, Champions of Europe 2005".
In one of the most dramatic European finals ever, underdogs Liverpool won the European Champions League on penalties on Wednesday against AC Milan after pegging back a 0-3 half-time deficit to 3-3.
Around 30 000 Liverpool fans travelled to Istanbul to support their team, and many times more that number could be seen crushed into the streets, on roofs, traffic lights and balconies or hanging off the entrance gates at Anfield to welcome the team home.
As the parade began - well after its 18:30 scheduled start - manager Rafael Benitez, inspirational captain Steven Gerrard and the rest of the team took turns to stand at the front of the bus with the Champions League trophy, waving to the crowd.
"We could be looking at up to half a million people" who turned the streets into a surging sea of red chequered Liverpool flags, said Ged Poynton, stadium manager at Anfield.
But amid the joy, there was growing anger against the decision by Uefa to stick by rules which bar Liverpool from defending the trophy which the club won for the fifth time.
The British government got involved in the row, with Sports Minister Richard Caborn contacting European football's governing body to argue it would be "a travesty" if Liverpool were excluded.
The Merseysiders' fifth-place finish in the English Premiership means they have not qualified for next season's compe ion according to the Uefa rule book, as le-holders do not automatically defend the trophy.
Uefa spokesperson William Gaillard said that despite the emotion, the organisation had no plans to change its rules.
Gaillard highlighted the precedent set in the 2000-01 season, when Real Madrid defended the cup after finishing fifth only because the Spanish football federation decided to hand them Real Zaragoza's place.
"The rules are what they are," Gaillard told BBC Radio.
Much of Liverpool was nursing a hangover on Thursday, with an organisation representing private businesses estimating that 20% of the city's workforce had taken the day off work.
The question is: Did you beat it?
I drank about five Red Bulls this morning, and just started feeling better about an hour ago.
I've worked 10 hrs and 50 minutes today, with FIVE left to go.
All this talk of brews is making me want to hit the fridge hard when I get home.
You mean after all this you're not a Spurs convert, adrienne?
The Mavs is where the heart is I wouldn't change teams just because they have more success. Dallas might have their chances if they can pickup a key free agent and aren't that far off.
