Gotta be awkward for Ruminegge & Merckle. So about those millions of euros you owe me...

Is the Copa Italia on TV anywhere? Edit- yes. Bein Sport.

HEYNCKES OUT, BITCHES. DEUCES.

Some quality GoT jokes from the Grantland family today. @BillSimmons: I'm enjoying the reaction shots of the 2 coaches - German Billionaire Mike Breen and German Hipster Jamie Lannister.

Cuttin to the left like a boss.

WHAT THE WHAT!?!

From a previous game, but still awesome. http://i.minus.com/iblHMqlP89qhEq.gif

Screw Thomas Rongen. Subotic is awesome.

#REALNATSFANS Lol, perfect. That guy is an [expletive]. Ribs carded which should be his second. Bayern should be playing with 9 right now. Which means Bayern is going to win and Dortmund is going to remember this screw job forever.

Ribery dodged a card earlier too. NEVAN YOU TURN COAT [expletive]

Rough. Fuckin Dante.

Passing is a thing I can do?! -Robben

Junior Flores, our 16 year old next big thing who signed a pre-contract with Dortmund, is at the game in the team box. Pretty cool.

Arjen Robben is an innovator in the field of finding new ways to lose games his team should win. What the Dutch masters were to Golden Age renaissance painting he is to choking.

I love it when people who only watch the EPL are surprised by how great/fun Bundesliga football is. If there were two teams from any of the other big 3 leagues in the final, it'd be boring as [expletive]. German teams don't do conservative.

Warren Barton doesn't realize that Robben's right foot is actually a bomb that will explode if he hits a ball with it. He can't use it or he'll die.

If Robben has a breakaway in a final, bet on him screwing up somehow. And I'm not sure how the normally incompetent Fire managed to score Magee for a guy who hasn't played in a year. They didn't know who to ask for, then someone was like, "hey, isn't their third string keeper, Mike Magee, from Chicago? " never realizing he's another classic, late-blooming MLS, American goal scorer and that game at keeper was a one-time thing. So blind luck, really.

Robbie Rogers to LA, Mike Magee to Chicago. Great deal for the Fire. ROBBEN YOU FOOL

Lets not get it twisted, though. Size is an extremely important measurable. The overwhelming majority of NBA champions have great big men. To be a great big man, you first have to be big. Now, normally I'd end my post there because my point is pretty evident, but for my man derwood's edification, ill clarify that I don't think every big player is great or every great player is big.

Are you this stupid or have you gone so completely through the rabbit hole of internet arguing culture that you're going to find a way to argue any dumb position imaginable with complete conviction? No, but many use a similarly simplistic evaluation to draft busts of all shapes and sizes. The original point of disagreement is that if you create a blanket reason to dismiss certain players then you're potentially cutting yourself off from drafting some serious talent. That doesn't mean "OF COURSE YOU DRAFT ANY GIANT THAT COMES ALONG." Apparently Derwood has no grasp of nuance and is so conditioned to just argue any nonsensical point that he needed me to spell that out for him. Using arbitrary measureables to eliminate entire populations of prospects without scouting them individually is so stupid that it's not even worth entertaining a discussion on, just a sarcastically obvious photoshop. A point which Derwood's entertainingly researched list (even though all of the names listed aren't actually 'footers) actually reinforces conversely. Don't not draft players for dumb reasons. Don't draft players for dumb reasons.

He can't run with a shooter and if he stays on the block, Bosh has a wide open look. Still better than overplaying LeBron and watching him lay it up on you, but that's the logic.

I don't like Noel, but he's 19. He can eat and lift. He'll be 240 in three years if he wants to be.

Good interview with Timmy Chandler about why he delayed his US call up: http://www.goal.com/en-us/news/3675/alex-labidou/2013/05/23/3998307/stoppage-time-timmy-chandler-opens-up-on-future-and-stalling?ICID=HP_HN_1
