Dear Santa

[Snag Breac]

I would like a larger gallery of emoticons for Christmas. I've become rather emoticon-dependant, yet I don't seem to be able to express the entire suite of footy-ispired emotions. I seem to use more emoticons that I used to. In fact, I find I'm now having to censor my emoticon use, just to keep to the allowed 7 per post.

Sometimes I think about emoticons when I should be reading poetry with my children, or listening to HOMP fill me in on her latest trip to Chadstone. Sometimes I'm worried that I'm allowing emoticons to take over my life. But I'd really like virtuous emoticon, at the very least, from Santa.

That's incredibly original Jake.. and you managed to employ the same creativity with your nickname.. kudos

Your ludicrous assumption and lack of grammar both strongly indicate only the stupidity on your own behalf, don’t they?

How could we not know how to have a computer? Was it that much of a difficulty for yourself that you declared the task a challenge?

Furthermore was it too much of a grueling test to pick and exhibit which team you support, instead of leaving it as ‘unlisted’? Surely you’re not that cowardly to ridicule others in a disguise.

Oh wait... sorry, I forgot the all important:

Sorry, "Unplugged".. Collingwood are the best club in the AFL...not

Your post made me so intrigued that I took it upon myself to explore what club you actually do support, if any. Now it’s my understanding that you're actually a Western Bulldogs supporter, correct?

Though coming out of a stronger season, I’m sorry to remind you that the Western Bulldogs are currently almost as far off as Collingwood from being the “best” club in the AFL. Gee, it must have hurt to see Collingwood leading over your team for a majority of the match in Round 13 before being hindered by an inevitable player deficiency due to injury.

And I was being generous to mention the present. What about the past? How many premierships have the almighty Bulldogs won?

I don’t see why you should look at us as a bad Football club with uneducated and lower-class citizens as supporters. Your club doesn’t exactly have an astonishing representation either.

All I want for Christmas, is for Santa to deliver some integrity and sanity to other clubs' supporters.

The law of probability is on our side.. just not sure if any of us will live long enough to see 20 grand finals without a loss

Well I think we have to win 10 of the next 10 GF's we play in to balance the ledger as above. I know this is not statistically correct but it would certainly do me and Santa would be deemed to have fulfilled his part of the Bargain...
