  1. USA beating up Cuba in Olympic Qualifying, 5-0.

     

    US qualifies for the semifinal with a win.

     

    Canada will likely need a draw against Cuba in the final stage to get in the semifinal as well.

     

    The final two teams qualify, and third place playoff winner goes into a qualifier

  2. Newcastle score the first, and looked to be taking a 1-0 lead in to halftime.

     

    Then Sergio Aguero happened

     

    Aguero 42' 1-1

    Aguero 49' 2-1 Manchester City

    Aguero 50' 3-1 

    (De Bruyne 53) 4-1

    Aguero 59' 5-1

    Aguero 60' 6-1

     

    So, five goals in 18 minutes. Impressive. Not quite a full Lewandowski, but I think a .9 Lewandowski.

  3. Canada gave em a run, but Italy wins.

     

    England are on lifesupport after declining a last minute penalty that would've drawn the game and kept them in front of Wales, and when they failed to score, will likely need to beat the Aussies to advance

  4. My quick review of Blood Bowl II

     

    If you've played the Blood Bowl series, it's got a massive graphical upgrade. Still some AI issues, but that's to be expected. Disappointing to only have 8 races at launch (two, Wood Elves and Lizardmen will be DLC shortly after release, and you get one free if you preordered), compared to the 20+ of Blood Bowl Chaos Edition, but I can understand that not every coach will want every team. As long as you can play AGAINST those teams without having to buy, I'm fine with it.

     

    Other notes.

     

    The Campaign is mostly aimed at new players, as the first four matches introduce various things to the new coach (the stats, making blocks, etcetera).

     

    I do like the fact that scripted events happen in the campaign (for example, in one of the early games:

     

    Ogre Mobsters unhappy with one of your team's star players incite the crowd to invade the pitch repeatedly


     

    I also set up a competition which can be done in single player or multiplayer mode. Maybe we'll set up a small DVDVR competition if other folks buy it

  5. You need to get Willow TV as well if you don't. They'll have the upcoming england (v pakistan) and Aussie (v bangladesh) series I think
     

    Fake edit: Yup, this is what they're going to be airing in the coming months:

     

    South Africa tour of India 2015 (OCT)
    4 TEST | 5 ODI | 2 T20I
    Pakistan vs England in UAE 2015 (OCT)
    3 TEST | 4 ODI | 3 T20I
    South Africa vs England 2015-16 (DEC)

    3 TEST | 5 ODI | 3 T20I
    ICC U-19 Cricket World Cup 2016 (FEB) 
    Schedule to be confirmed
  6. And even better.. Japan won a penalty in injury time that would have meant a draw, which STILL would've been the biggest upset in RWC history, and they said "Bugger that, we're going to take the Scrum and go for the win!"
