FIFA
You're probably all wondering why I would write about FIFA when the World Cup has been over for weeks. Well, the real FIFA World Cup might have ended when Italy beat France, but in our house, it goes on and on...and on. See, for the past few weeks, since the start of the real World Cup, Mikeo has been coming over to our house to play World Cup on the XBox. During these FIFA nights, he and David usually end up playing for hours with most of the time spent yelling obscenities at each other. Anyway, even though the nights thus far have ended in disappointment, I generally like FIFA nights cause Mikeo comes over and I like Mikeo. Sometimes he'll throw me my frisbees and he'll pet me. But the best thing about Mikeo is that usually whenever he comes over, he and David order food and where do they eat the food? At the coffee table in the basement, which is well within the reaches of these puppy paws. Tonight I almost made away with an entire slice of Mikeo's pizza. I took a few quick licks before he noticed and took it away from me. The other day, I even managed to knock over a can of soda and get a taste in before David cleaned it up. The slices of pizza can be hard cause they're relatively big. They've gotten wings before. One would think those would be pretty easy to swipe, but it's hard to get them out of those containers. Fries are pretty easy, I like the ones from Roy Rogers the best. See the best time to try for food is when they score a goal and are running around the basement celebrating, hooting and hollering. Unfortunately, goals come few and far between so my total food intake during FIFA has been pretty low. After approximately 10 million hours of play, they have yet to beat Ghana.

Mango,
Besides stealing our food while we play FIFA, you need to stop sticking your nose on my hand and controller when I'm on a breakaway. It causes me to jerk my hand away and shank the shot over the net. We'd have atleast 10 more goals and a World Cup title if it weren't for you.
Keep trying to attack buses,
Mike O.

Mikeo O - Do you think the athletes in the World Cup would let something as trivial as a cold wet puppy nose get in between themselves and the goal? I think not. You're just trying to come up with excuses for your dismal World Cup appearances. You'd have at least 10 more goals if you actually were able to convert any of those passes. If I had opposable thumbs, rest assured, I'd be kicking butt in FIFA.
Keep shanking shots over the net - Mango
