Day After Thoughts On Galaxy Changes

9

Now that it is The Day After, I have a few thoughts on what just happened.

Alexi Lalas' firing was at least a year too late and was a laughably inept hire in the first place. Lalas was good at many things, like being a salesman extraordinaire, doing color commentary, creating funny ESPN Sportscenter promotional spots, even defending for the US MNT.

If could tag on to the coattails of Metrofanatic's bit about Red Bull New York's current transit-based advertising campaign, when getting off of the bus into Madhattan this morning I was greeting by Jorge Rojas mug on the back cover of the Daily News. Usually this is often a bad career move because in NY that space is often occupied by politicians or celebrities who have been caught with either a live boy or a dead girl.
