At this time we cannot confirm the following action, but knowing the nature of our namesake, we go with the belief that it is most certainly factual....

From Jesse:
The Hobbit already in top form

"Metrostars Head Coach Mo Johnston wasn't bothered by the virtually meaningless result -- a 2-1 loss thanks to a penalty kick that RSL's Jamie Watson fired home after a questionable call -- ....."

The only question is, did the Hobbit refrain from the fist pump after diving to earn the penalty? (I think it's safe to assume he was the source of the questionable call.)

ADDITION: We now have confirmed that, of course, our boy is the one who went down in the box to draw the penalty. From the Salt Lake Desert News: Jamie Watson was taken down in the box by a swarm of MetroStars' defenders. A "swarm"! It took a whole swarm to bring him to earth. There is no way one guy could have done it. They needed a swarm of 'em!
