The Evil Empire - Attack Of The Clones?

21 04 2008

Everybody in the world of Major League Baseball knows the name of the Evil Empire. The New York Yankees are synonymous with everything that is wrong with baseball but it seems that they have their fans in the form of Chelsea Football Club.

The New York Yankees are renowned for their ability to exploit and manipulate merchandising, the media and fans in the pursuit of money, in a way in which the Disney Corporation can only envisage in their wet dreams.

Universally hated by all but their own fans, Chelsea, like the Yankees seem to have a penchant for signing unlikable players (including the arrogant, selfish and downright mundane), pushing as many different marketing aspects down you’re throats as possible and playing good-cop-bad-cop with the F.A.

It hasn’t gone unnoticed that Great Britain has become a clone of the USA in more ways than one and it seems that Chelsea are keen to follow this trend.
First there was Blair copying Bush and then the unashamed dog on a lead following into Iraq. Britain has become reminiscent of the schoolyard bullies’ best mate. The USA offers a warning to cough up you’re dinner money and then Britain cowardly leans around his fatter ally with a snarled “Yeah!”.

This is why the Buffalo is pleased to see that a player as great as Ronaldinho, even if he has dipped in form of late, has shunned a chance to cross over to ‘the Dark side’ and has instead opted to join an AC MIlan side unlikely to seal a Champions League place.

Then again even the buck-toothed genius can see that a move to Chelsea would see him become as unpopular as Michael Jackson at a tea party.

The genius at work





Migrants Make Their Last Meal?

20 04 2008

Changes to Immigration laws, whereby immigrants will need to score a certain number of ‘points’ to enter the UK, could leave the resaturant industry reeling at the loss of thousands of workers.

The Ethnic Catering Alliance, who represent Chinese, Turkish, South Asian and other non-EU nationalities, believe that up to 30% of it’s staff will not meet the target points score.

Home Secretary Jacqui Smith - New Immigration Policy

The Buffalo finds this idea to be a smidgeon harsh on those already living in the UK, and it could possibly lead to many ‘unqualified’ immigrants simply disappearing under the radar.

But then again, maybe that is what the government, who are currently flustered by the immigration crisis that they have let develop, want.

Figures showing the amount of immigrants entering and currently residing in the country would drop and give a false but positive impression.

Spin is what the powers that be are best at and spin is what this would certainly appear to be.

More empty promises and half-cocked ideas to sway the unwashed masses into maintaining their regime of idiocy.

Now if only we could employ a similar points sytem to those leaving school with poor educations we might be able to make Britain the one proud nation it used to be.

Then again, maybe you would gain points for muggings, rapes and murders given today’s violent society.





Will You Please Mucc Off?

12 04 2008

    For what seems to be the billionth time Heather Mills McCartney has appeared on television ranting about something or other that few people know and even fewer care about according to the Mirror.

 

    Mucca as she is affectionately known, a nickname she picked up from her days as a porn-actress, has been banned from talking about the trial and its transcript from her separation from Beatle Sir Paul McCartney. Yet here she appears on GMTV for the third time and openly flouts the law.

 

    Whilst she says she is the ‘victim’ in this case the Buffalo can see through her and her ‘claims’ are runnier than the aftershock of last nights dodgy curry.

 

    It seems that being awarded £24.3 million of somebody else’s money for sitting on your backside and uttering ‘I do’ nonchalantly is quite a good deal and she is more of a villain than victim. Sir Paul worked extremely hard for his fortune and should be able to do what he pleases with the amount.

 

    In the end it is his own fault though. He should have been able to see she was a leech only in for his money. The judge in the case realised this and gave her a ‘paultry sum’ in comparison.

 

    Claims that her daughter, who she has used more as a pawn than a concern throughout the trial, needs over £10,000 a week to keep her in the ‘lifestyle to which she is accustomed’ are ridiculous. Does the kid crap Faberge eggs or something??

   

Mucca - The wicked witch of the west?

    Heather’s claims that she has helped numerous charities also fail to stand up straight, excuse the pun. Most of these benefactors have denied they have ever had any contact with her and even if they did it was Sir Paul’s money that she helped them with, certainly not her own.

    The Buffalo thinks it is about time she grew up, stopped forcing herself onto our televisions looking desperate and got herself a job. I hear that mining companies in South Africa are looking for extra gold diggers…
