Fotbal known to you Americans as soccer has always been very important to the Czech people, especially during communism since it was one of the few uncensored activities. The fans could get quite violent towards one another.
Jaromir Nohavica comes from Ostrava, where this song takes place and portrays an avid fan. I think it's more of a parody than anything else... but it captures the gist of other soccer songs quite well.

Here's my translation:

On Sunday at ten past five
Meeting at Banik (a football club, but also a stadium)
beer ten (a light beer) is served
then another
what are you looking at dude?
want one in your face?
if you annoy me...
look, I'm drunk

Tribune for standing
don't push you ulcer!
Spartans (a Prague club) are a bunch of rags
Ostrava (home to Banik) let's go!
It's going the right way

The ticket cost me five...
so show me what you've got
good day and hello to sports
especially to football

thugs beasts!
Chovanec (another palyer) (should get a red/yellow) card (a foul)
Jesličky (a maneuver) - great!
bring it to the goal
strike the Prague team!
Shame on Sparta!
what are you fooling around
seven bananas (I have no idea what that means, I guess it's just fooling around)

I'm standing among crowds of people
I'm a fan of my club
that goal was from offside!
smash the referee's face!
where's the coach?
let's go puncture his tires
good day and hello to sports
especially to football

Keep your mouth shut you show off!
you in that raincoat!
you understand football as well
as a goat understands a truck
if I were you I'd stop talking
and get my way out of here
otherwise I won't be able to control myself
and then I'll show you

On Sunday after football
who knows he knows
Hey waiter you're too slow!
six zero to rums!
I would have shown them
to the pit with them
good day and hello to sports
football is great!

Just in time for the Superbowl:

We have power again

Yes, still no power. Ed got me this droid just in TIMe

Just talked to esso. They're under deep snow with no power. They were debating if they should shovel out to the grill so they could cook.

Where is Michele when you need her? 15" of snow and falling still

Christmas 2008

Ah, I remember it like it was only two years ago...

bozeman police have a new toy: A vehicle parked on North Black Avenue was found to have 17 outstanding citations on three different license plates and was immobilized with a "boot." Fines total $495.

also this: A transient man on the side of the road was using a "gas can as a prop to enhance his ability to catch a ride to Big Sky."

Stephen King, Pet Cemetary

Why would he be near death? Has he been reading Westlake?

Avoided a $525 vet bill today. Let's hope Chewie doesn't die.

It's probably your use of the word just. I just died when I heard Westlake passed away.

how could the librarian tell me he died if it was the librarian who died?

The M Trail



Triple Tree

Playing cribbage with matto tonight. Thought we'd use all 52 cards this time.

I'm not complaining. I'm just telling you how I read it.

Westlake, 75,
The author of more than 90 books -- most of them written on a typewriter -- Westlake wrote under a variety of pseudonyms including Richard Stark, Tucker Coe, Samuel Holt and Edwin West -- in part because people didn't believe he could write so much, so fast.

Gives you some more names to look for books under.
ao: I think if anything the punctuation is wrong, not the grammar.

The librarian died! How did you find out there wouldn't be anymore Westlake books?

Hey mom you don't need to bring books with you when you come visit. The library has several Westlake books that I don't have. Also the librarian said he just died like last month so there won't be anymore new books.

Is there a background story to that where he does get beat up?

Thomas wore his "Bears" shirt yesterday for Sports day and did NOT get beat up. I think Steeler's fans are very level-headed.

I think she is singing, "All I want for Christmas is my Two Front Teeth."

was that the X-mas tribute to James Brown?

can I not see the closet organizer because my closet would be a lot more organized if nothing was in it?

I know I went to school in where the Strand Union Building is, but I can't remember which school.

28th International Street Food Bazaar
held in the Strand Union Building, February 20th from 4-7 PM.

Ok, February is Relho Enthusiasm month, so here's 102 unedited photos out my front door. Don't miss #32 and #56.

fyi, Sumava is a western border region of the Czech Republic. It's relatively rural due to some previously strict border policies. Just touring the area warranted a visit from the secret police when you got home. So I was told...

The snow in Sumava was amazing, at some places about as deep as the shoulders of our friend in the red coat. He decided to take a bathroom break without his skis on. He fell into the snow so deep only his shoulders and head could be seen, unfortunately the person carrying the camera had the oldest (read slowest) skis, therefore no picture. In the end my mom and I had to pull him out using our poles, since he was literally swimming in the snow and not moving forward. We skid almost 18 km, 17,7 to be exact.
The Netherlands is also covered in snow now, but most of the snow that fell during the day melted and then froze into a sheet of ice, haven't fallen yet, but I also wasn't biking. My bike is still safely locked away in the basement. No biking till the snow and ice are gone, no more torn meniscus'! Learnt that lesson 7 years ago and have no need for a reminder.

MSO: let me know if your friends need a tour guide or anything else.

It's hard to explain how strangely pleased she seems to be at this prospect.

liver & onions for dinner tonight

Very productive day - 2 coats of Kilz means I need to pick a color tomorrow.

Also, Meijer now has the NuVal scores on several of its foods. +100 for me.

ao: glad you made it home safely.
vo: Hope the painting goes well.

I made it home... sans panda suit.
