wow the lineups blow, I do not want to watch Ferguson play... ever
Hellmuth is funny though I'll def check his match out

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us and as we let our own lights shine we unconsciously give other people permision to do the same
