A wild guess would be that the guy is
the boss of Ma Bell or something, as the
Boys mention it many times and that's
also how the title "Ill Communication"
appears on the record.
(like Ma Bell, I've got the Ill Communication)

The photo was shot by Bruce Davidson, who
has made many celebrity photos and stuff.

This is just a guess, anyone have a better one?

If I'm not mistaken Ma Bell was a phonecompany, with bad service, it does'nt
exist anymore.
So I don't think the guy on the pic is the owner of Ma Bell.

Anyone?

OMG,
Ma Bell was slang for Bell Communications, the only phone company that was
available before deregulation. However, the bigger they got, the worse
service got and more and more pepole complained. Therefore the Government
stepped in and broke up Bell Communications into lots of smaller
companies. SO...when they say "Like Ma Bell I got the Ill
Communications..." get it now?

Whenever I've seen the cover I've always thought "Blues Brother".
I have a friend that said "Hey that kinda looks like John Belushi" too.
I'm not saying it's him, I'm saying there's a resemblance or likeness, or

Maybe it's just the sunglasses, but oh well.

Oh my...did you catch 2 weeks ago when the US Women's team play to a 0-0 tie
and the winner was decided by a COIN TOSS? Saw it on sports center. Soccer
isnt a sport...its disorganized kickball. And yes I know that it is the most
popular sport in the world outside the US. When was the last time that Yankee
fans were killed by a horde of Red Sox fans? When was the last time the Dallas

But you are a pain in the ass. You are completely wrong. I'll assume you
play on your computer at least 6 hours a day... not saying that is a bad
thing, but you probably don't get out much other than to go to the store for
another chocolate bar. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world for a
reason... it involves SKILL, TEAMWORK, FITNESS, and too many other things
to list. It's a beautiful game, but you can't appreciate it unless you have
played it, or watched for many years. Granted, games decided by a coin toss
suck ass, but I also think shoot outs suck... soccer has those, as does
almost every other sport.

You don't understand the LOYALTY issue that a lot of soccer fans have, ie.
English fans. It's more about their country than just the game... I'm not
going to bother trying to explain this, you wouldn't get it.

Good assumption. With a DSL connection and a job that has flex hours, I can
play on the PC, go to work, play hockey, ride bike, read, play on the pc some
more and still have time left over for the day-but thanks for your concern about

Actually, I watched a few games while I was in England and Italy cause that is
all that was on tv. Yes, it is a great workout-there is a lot of running. And
you don't have to watch it for years to see that-any idiot can see it is a good
workout. There are very few to zero fat soccer players. I don't consider
jogging a sport either, though. It is a good workout. Like riding a stationary
bike or a rowing machine. GREAT workouts, shitty sports.

> Granted, games decided by a coin toss

you think shoot outs suck? OK...your opinion. But how can you defend a game
where after all that excercise, ALL that competition, ALL THAT...Still comes
down to luck and chance vice skill. PLEASE tell me how you can sit there in
your trailer home and defend that...I would be pissed off if my team lost due to
a coin fucking toss.

I can think of hockey. Not too many shootouts in Basketball. Or Football

Golf. they kind of have a shootout, but thats a whole nother post topic...

right. Cause I've never been to those countries (see above). Actually, I
understand the national pride they have more than you are giving me credit for.
So are you trying to justify those horrible crimes, tragedies and hooliganism
perpetrated by those fans? Cause it sounded like you are saying, "Its ok to
kill people cause they dont like the same soccer team I do". And it's not
always nation against nation. I was in the middle of a bar fight in Portsmouth
England between fans of Manchester United and Sussex (I think it was Sussex).
YEs, fans here get out of control too, but not to the degree that soccer fans
do.

Just out of curiosity... because I'm bored... why is it that when
someone doesn't agree with something you've said you resort to
calling them names such as "Jethro" and making trailer park remarks?
Do you believe that everyone who doesn't share you opinion is white
trash or something? I've had plenty of experience with trailer
trash, growing up in Texas and all, and I think it's safe to say that
not many of them can express themselves the way many people in this
newsgroup do - especially the ones who tear apart your posts. Call
them assholes or whatever if you want, but the inbreeding and welfare
type references are a bit tiresome.

Seriously re-thinking the nature of our relationship,
Martie (who still thinks soccer is a sport for exactly all the reasons
you believe it's not) :)

some fairly nasty emails back and forth before we realized that neither one of us
really meant what we were writing. I post to many groups, and usually I get to
"meet" quite a few other people to bait along good naturedly. Not so here. I have
seen posts from a LOT of people that apparently want this group to be just another

I misjudged everything...I'm sorry. This is all my fault. I want to apologize to

Why would your team loose due to a coin toss? With soccer the coin toss
dicides who can play off first, after half time the other team gets to play
off, so none of the teams play at advantage.

Ah, one thing we agree on, the violence between the fans, but hey you named
UK fans, their the worst nightmare of the whole soccer league, actually both
the supporters and the UK team risked being expelled from the Euro 2000 a

What's hooliganism have to do with the play on the field? Nothing.

The Afghanistan fiasco, again, had absolutely nothing to do with the game of
soccer. It just doesn't say much for Afghanistan...

Soccer is great. You can say you don't like it, but saying it isn't a sport
is ridiculous and ignorant.

Synchronized swimming, race walking, ballroom dancing, and bridge (the card
game)...are not or should not be sports...yet they are all either Olympic
events or Olympic "demonstration sports". THOSE are ridiculous. Soon to be
followed by "go fish", the 100m crawl, and holding your breath underwater no
doubt...

And no you idiot, the US women's team didn't win that game by a coin toss.
The U.S. and Brazil tied 0-0, and that left them both tied at the top of
their group. All the tie-breaker stuff (goal differential, most goals
scored, etc.) didn't determine a group winner, so it went to a coin toss.
U.S. won it, so they won the group and went on to play a crappy opponent;
and Brazil, 2nd in the group, had to play China (they are good). If you
check the rulebooks, you'll see that other team sports have similar
coin-flipping rules to determine winners when tied in a group to advance to
the playoffs. MLB plays a game to decide the winner. I'm certain the NFL
flips a coin if there's a tie. Not too sure about NBA and NHL. But I guess
you must hate the NFL eh? Not a sport certainly.....

"Wise man talks not about that which he does not know."

You obviously don't have a clue...about much of anything really...

It'd be a lot quieter in here if you'd only talked about things you
understand...

I used to correct people's spelling and grammer too until someone pointed out to
me that what was important was what was being said, not what was actually
typed. I can appreciatte your remark though, as I was insinuating that someone
else had a poor grasp on the english language. I had to smile when Isaw what I
typed in.

Irony can be so damn ironic :)

Just out of curiosity... because I'm bored... why is it that when
someone doesn't agree with something you've said you resort to
calling them names such as "Jethro" and making trailer park remarks?>>

Because it's his schtick. He thinks it's funny.

Hey FUCKO! If you are going to quote me, use my exact quote. I said it was
the most popular sport in the world OUTSIDE THE US.>>

Well, averaged out, to include the US, it'd still be the most popular sport.

<<Just because the rest of the world calls it a sprot doesn't mean I have to
recognize it as one.>>

No, but that makes you look like a moron, saying you don't believe one of the
most tiring sports of all isn't even a sport.

You guys all missed my point entirely. I have never liked soccer, but was
actually starting to watch a little more of it since there was nothing on tv one
afternoon. I never siad it wasnt tiring. If you would read my posts, I admit
that it is good excercise. Those guys are all in great shape (to repeat
myself). There are very few in any fat soccer players.

My beef was with the Women's World Tournament a couple weeks ago and the fact
that at the end of the game the winner was decided by a coin fucking toss. Not
in the Figurative sense. THE REFEREE PULLED A FUCKIN COIN OUT OF HER FUCKING
POCKET AND THE WINNER WAS DECIDED THAT WAY!!!!! How come no one has been able to
explain this to me so it makes sense? (i know, that sentance alone will be quoted
out of context with some Jethro (didnt want to disappoint) saying that I'm too
stupid to explain things to anyway). We can sit here all day and discuss which
sport, activity or freaking COLOR is better to no avail. EVERYONE HAS THEIR OWN
OPINION. You like soccer? Great. Think NASCAR is a sport? Wonderful. Hate
Raccoons? Perfect. All I wanted to know is how they could decide a game by that
means after 90 minutes of all out running around and working. Thats all.

PS-no use arguing which sport is best...hands down its Hockey :)

The USA way to decide who wins? In every other country, penaltys are taken
after 120 minutes of playing when it's a draw.

Actually, I started this thread in answer to a question: "Who is on the cover
of Ill Communicaiton?" I answered, albiet somwhat half-assedly, but someone
got their feelings hurt 40 posts ago, and it got turned into a difference of
opinion over soccer... why don't we just just call it dead?

that's why i said "my theory", and not "My best friend happens to be Mike D and
he told me EVERYTHING, and I'm not tellin you." So there was no mistake.
