|
I do too so I can see everyone eat crow!!! |

It's an expression.
Eating crow
Meaning: To be proven wrong. To be forced to admit a humiliating mistake.
Example: With the fall of the Soviet Union, the communists are eating crow.
Origin: An article published in the Atlanta Constitution in 1888 claims that, towards the end of the war of 1812, an American went hunting and by accident crossed behind the British lines, where he shot a crow.
He was caught by a British officer who, complimenting him on his fine shooting, persuaded him to hand over his gun. This officer then leveled his gun and said that as a punishment the American must take a bite of the crow. The American obeyed, but when the British officer returned his gun he took his revenge by making him eat the rest of the bird.
This is such an interesting explanation of the phrase's origin that it seems a shame to point out that the original expression is not recorded until the 1850s, and that its original form was to "eat boiled crow," whereas the story makes no mention of boiling the bird.
It also seems improbable that the English officer would have returned the gun after forcing the American to take a bite of the bird under gunpoint.
In reality, "crow" is a word that refers to the intestines of an animal especially when used for food. The British English equivalent is "eating humble (or umble) pie."

Five outcasts have become a combined power to take vengeance upon the world that had abandoned them. They have become known collectively as Wretched Asylum.

|
i think the cardinals will win game 4 but the sox will win the series at home |
|
I don't care how they do it they just need to win one more! Games four and five are in St. Louis. To be honest, the Cards look so lifeless I don't see it coming back to Boston. I've been wrong before so we'll see how it goes.... |
|
The Red Sox WILL win the World Series tonight. How amazing! |
|
I had an interview with a band at Avalon tonight but I canceled it. Fuck that shit! |
|
Yes the Red Sox WILL win the World Series tonight......watch and you'll see. |
|
One more time.....the Red Sox WILL win the World Series. |
|
Yeah, Jason Marquis has been HORRIBLE his last six starts, hasn't made it past the fifth inning in the postseason. Should be like batting practice for the Sox because you can tell they are like sharks that smell blood right now. |
|
Man, I'm so excited. Lowe has been pitching well lately, I think we can do this. I can't wait....AAAAAAAAAAAAH! I feel so lucky...this only happens once every 86 years....
GO SOX! |
|

I wouldn't go out at all if we win...you might get shot at or messed with by the BPD. |
|
one of my friends is all proud that he was at the riots, and everyone he brags about it to either, laughs at him, makes fun of, calls him a dick or all 3 |
|
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!GO RED SOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
|
I'm torn.
I want this stupid fucking series to be over so it stops fucking up the TV schedule.
On the other hand, if the Red Sox blow it now and lose 4 games in a row, which they very well could, it'll be so awesome to see all the Red Sox fans crying about it.
I hate pro-sports. How watching a bunch of overpaid niggers in dumb looking uniforms throw a ball around is entertaining to anyone over 12 years old I will never understand.
I liked sports when I was a kid though. I was at game 6 in '86 when the ball went through Buckner's legs. As a NY fan, that was pretty cool. I'm surprised to see this many people who are expecting the Red Sox to win. Don't you people learn? |
|
YEah, missing all your cool fox shows, huh? |
|
YANKEES SUCK YANKEES SUCK YANKEES SUCK!!!!! |
|
Was anyone else down in Kenmore tonight after the game? It was some crazy shit, but not nearly as crazy as it could have been, I was disappointed.
Tear gas is tasty on my lips. |
|
yeah Kenmore and the rest of mass ave was really tame. but it was still a goodtime seeing everyone out and the cops being chill. |
|
yeah i was there. it was fucking nuts. i got hit in the leg by whatever they were shooting out. the gas didnt do shit. did you see that moron fall off the lamp post? best part of the night. |
|
cops being chill? i saw so many people get clobbered for no reason. this was around 130am. |
