  1. All that buildup for that? Blah.
  2. Well I know what I need to track down, holy shit.
  3. I would think *now* would be the time for Celtic to start begging the FA to enter England.
  4. Recycled, first heard this when Mitch Williams gave up *that* home run in in the 93 World Series. Ironically, another Philadelphia closer sucking.
  5. Last time I wore anything sports related in Philly is when I got shit wearing my Yankees hat, when the Phillies were playing the Marlins. Anytime I go to Philly, if I'm wearing anything sports related, its my Eagles shirt. and you don't want to go to a Flyers game not wearing Orange and Black. I thought I was gonna die that night the Rangers lit them up and they all knew I was a Ranger fan, because I wasn't wearing any Philly garb.
  6. I absolutly love going to Yankee Stadium to watch baseball, but I don't do it because no matter if I drive or take the train, I'm dropping $150 in addition to the tickets. But the bleachers still rule. I hate going to Citizen's Bank Park, but that might be my hatred of Philadelphia and fearing for my life because of the fans, not because the stadium is bad. The stadium is really beautiful, just that (most of) the shithead fans of the Phillies don't deserve that building. Going to watch the Trenton Thunder at Arm & Hammer Park is nice because its down the street, and only costs me $50 to bring the girl, and the tickets are so little that if my 5 year old gets bored, I'm 10 minutes from home and didn't drop the $300 it would if I went to NY or Philly.
  7. I can honsetly say that if FIOS dropped ESPN because of The Mouse wanting to overchrage for it, I wouldn't miss it one bit.
  8. I'm gonna guess he bitched and whined for Spurs to sell him because he wants to make the World Cup squad, and he's sure as shit not making it playing in the Reserves league. Not with the way the 2nd tier wingers were playing in the GC. Seattle probably had the DP spot open to take him, and he's automatically near the best player on the team, and will get time. And I don't think any mid-tier Premier League teams really needed a Winger that they'd take a flyer on him when there's better players out there.
  9. Well, that'll make the West a ton more interesting.
  10. You will never, ever ever ever ever ever, get a pyramid system in the US. Never. Not with having to pay $40M for a franchise, not for the money to run the grounds, and not with the loss of money from getting relegated. There's only 4 teams that would allow it because their owners are familar with to the system (Chivas USA, NYRB and NYCFC, and Seattle). What will happen, is that Garber will grab up any franchise in the MLS that can fork over the $40M, and the league will overexpand and dilute the talent pool even more. Shit, the only reason that the MLS exists is because FIFA couldn't be bribed(enough) to overlook the fact that a World Cup Host Nation didn't have a legitimate Top Tier league. The NASL is the number 2 league because they're just starting to recover from overexpansion. Teams coming up from the NASL to MLS aren't on merit, its on the fact that they came up with the money to bribe Garber pay the franchise fee to enter the league. The biggest problem with the MLS is that its run by Garber, and not by the USSF.
  11. Whilst the dialogue is fine and witty, Newsroom took a HUGE nosedive thusfar. Like, this season is total shit compared to last season, and that had its problems.
  12. Starting 17 having graduated our entire offense last year, AWESOME!!!
  13. Best damn WWE show in existance.
  14. The article speculates Peter Capaldi is the new Doctor, but I don't think someone that was in the entire Children of Earth season of Torchwood and a couple guests spots on DW itself would get it.
  15. I'm wagering its who's playing the Twelve(Thirteen?) when Smith's regeneration scene takes place at the end of the Anniversary Special. Or that they somehow got McGann and Eccelston in to do proper regeneration scenes. Or Moffat stopped being a dick and finally asked Barrowman back.
  16. Its amazing to me how Liverpool and the Cowboys haven't come up with some cross-marketing agreement yet, since their exactly alike, but in different sports.
  17. Yeah, but if you look at the best competitive teams, lot of their players play for the same domestic teams (shit, Spain is the best National Team in the world, and 3/4th's of the team play on Barcalona). We have 2 good teams and 17 mediocre teams in MLS now. We're gonna go to 2 good teams and 22 shit teams just because Garber wants more money? Overexpansion killed the NASL for years, and is hurting the arguably hurting the NBA now. the MLS doesn't need more teams, it needs to attract better players to make better teams to make it better to watch.
  18. So, in the midst of yet another year of the MLS "All-Stars" getting getting their asses kicked mid-US Season by yet another Euro Club team playing their Pre-Season (AS Roma this time), Heir Garber announces plans to expand MLS to 24 teams by 2020. Hey Garber, why not, I dunno, MAKE THE FUCKING 19 WE ALREADY HAVE ACTUALLY ATTRACTIVE TO OUR TOP PLAYERS?!?!?! Whislt our best player plays for the MLS, at least over half of our prespective WC squad plays outside the US. That's a problem. That's what needs fixing. Maybe not make MLS a fucking has been/never will be League? Talent is spread thin enough as it is, adding 5 more teams isn't gonna help, but hey, Garber can't turn down $25 mil a pop in franchise fees.
  19. Ok. Show's how long its been since I really followed Boxing.
  20. Ok, I'm stupid, what's the belt with the larger Red/White/Blue strap (I know the smaller is The Ring title)
  21. They still played the Pro Bowl?
