"Not-so-Deep thoughts" - by Fern (aka LE BIX) --------------------------------------------- Vol. 1, No. 10 22/June/1998 Bonus ***Not-so-Deep Thoughts On Hiatus*** During my daily dump break, I had the opportunity to peruse the LA Times and came across Steve Sampson's comments about 1) not stepping down voluntarily and 2) stating that there was nothing else he would have changed differently [about the lineup and the players on the field]. I can't believe what this ignoramus is saying. I'm embarrassed to be a supporter of the U.S. National Team. Is this really all he could do? There must be someone out there that can do better. Sampson has to know he's gonna get axed and Rothenberg does too. So until that time comes and a replacement or interim is named, Not-so-Deep Thoughts will be put on hold in protest of Sampson's status as the head coach of the U.S. National Soccer team. And if this means waiting until the end of the tournament after the final game has been played, so be it. Signing off, Fernando "Le Bix" Bustamante "King of the World" is king no more
