    Am I so round with you as you with me,
    That like a football you do spurn me thus?
    You spurn me hence, and he will spurn me hither.
    If I last in this service, you must case me in leather.

    Apologies 
    I m a little drunk. Alcohol eh? It provokes the desire [to be funny] but takes away the performance . Time for bed...to bed to bed to bed ...to sleep perchsnce to dream of the playoffs. anyway you get the idea I did a Shakespeare paper at University and I want you all to know.

    We shall winneth our next three games because we has't to.  If 't be true by chance we art did allow to draweth one, all of the fans shall rejoiceth  - Nigelus Adkinnius

    Can't remember the play this came from but hopefully not a tragedy.
  • This season's definitely been a tragedy anyway

    Caesar:
    Let me have men about me that are fat, like Steveo of Evans
    Sleek-headed men and such as sleep a-nights.
    Yond Mourinho has a lean and hungry look,
    He thinks too much; such men are dangerous.
