  1. This is a very apt comparison. The US commentators are garbage. The Fox Soccer Report guys are ok. The guys doing EPL games are just the regular EPL announcers, so I'm not giving FSC credit for tapping into that feed. The Fox Fone In guys suck. haha, wolf, that's an excellent way of putting it. the guy who does play by play for the mls matches, max something, is pretty brutal with his goal calls. i forgot about fox football fone-in, again, i watch it because they talk about soccer. nick webster isn't bad, but steven cohen is a hack. he's a even a chelsea supporter and i can't stand him. the prem announcers from sky sports are usually pretty damn good. I agree with your FFF assessment re: Webster and Cohen. Cohen sucks. Max Bretos is the MLS announcer and I like his goal calls just because they are so ridiculously over the top. The dude himself is ridiculously over the top. yyyyYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSsssssss is what a closed captioned sub title of his calls would look like.
  2. I love FSC, but I think it is akin to a starving person loving liver if you served it to him.
  3. Based on what? He got like a 15 on his baseball ACT. I think monkeys get around 10 or something. In fairness to Ronny, he forgot his calculator for the Math portion.
  4. I can't stand Twellman. Everything from his unnecessarily tight jersey and short shorts to his constant penchant for missing complete sitters. Can't win an aerial challenge to save his life either. They only reasoning I can see is that other than Clint there is zero experience up front and there really isn't any difference between him and someone like Josh Wolff who would be the alternative.
  5. Twellman and Guzan added to the roster. I like Guzan and am glad he got the call up. He is Chivas USA's goalie and is apparently on Aresenal's radar as a potential signing.
  6. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, CAL! LOL
  7. Thanks, Adrian Peterson.
  8. But would you want him back coaching the Blues? I love Andy Murray and what he has done so far, but of course I'd want Scotty back.
  9. Are you saying this because you want it to happen or are you serious? As a Red Wing fan, absolutely not. I just threw it out there for fun. I did hear his name rumored with another job this off season. Maybe he is interested in coming back in some capacity. That would suck. In what way. If he went to the Hawks. I think he was rumored to be going to the Leafs in some way. I wish he never quit coaching the Wings. Of course I am sure the Blues, Canadians, Sabres and Penguins fans all feel the same way. I'm a Blues fan who wants him nowhere near a Central team, let alone a rival.

  11. Peace out, right arm of Homer Bailey.
  12. Kaka with Arsenal would be insane. They are so loaded on young talent right now, and Kaka's pace and flow would fit right in with them as well. That would be seriously illegal. And Henry would feel dumb for leaving, like, the best team conceivable. Good thing Arsenal can't afford him. Not only that, but they'd be crazy to sign him even if they could. Don't f with what they have going already. If they need to add somebody to go over the top, they don't have to make it the most expensive man ever.

  14. Also, there is help from the farm on it's way with a potential future super star along with a few potentially significant contributors and no reason to believe that they won't find an even better suited GM for their philosophy going forward. I'd rather have Colby than anyone in the Cubs farm system. :| Me too, Raisin, me too. Also, I'd rather have Dennis Erickson coaching my school than Dorrell... low blow, I'm sorry. Ouch. Ben Howland or Herb Sendek/Bruce Weber? :D Well played.

  16. I don't want to hurt your cute little master card thing, but Carpenter's is way off - 4 year's 55 mil left (option year 1mil buyout included). Considering we should get some production out of it, it's not a terrible loss. Similar situation with Mulder's 6.5 mil next year although I'm far less confident we will get any production from it.

  17. She is stored safely in my photobucket account for any future use. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y274/krkhinrich/hot_beer_girls400.jpg
  18. He is staying on as team president. Just stepping down from GM.
  19. IMB has some pretty awesome pics. Really, since you are basically going to lose every argument about who has the superior team historically and since your team just got swept you probably aren't all that proud of them anyway, you need to go straight to the "at least our city is awesome and yours is a hole" or "at least our fans aren't a bunch of jort rocking, mustachioed Mississippi/Arkansas rednecks."

  20. So Lampard (not surprising) and Drogba (a little surprising) want out of Chelsea now that Jose is gone and Avram Grant is targeting Kaka despite what would probably be around $200,000,000 transfer fee and Kaka's interview earlier this week in which he said he likes Arsenal and Man U because Liverpool and Chelsea are too plodding for his tastes. Ridiculous. What a mess.
  21. Really? I don't think it is.
  22. I heard this earlier today. I loved the "Yankees Win, thhheeeeeee Yankeed win!" guy's reaction. Whatever his name is.
  23. I have it on good authority that Western Kentucky will probably win this game because Ball State's QB is going to be way too stoned to play. I hope this is a joke post, our QB is basically all we've got at this point! It is not. The getting high all the time thing isn't new, so he'll probably be as effective as ever. How the heck did you hear this? I'm Ball State student sports media and I couldn't have even guessed. Let's just say my source is very close to the situation... I could even tell you his preferred "flavor." hooray for wolf's source supplying BS's QB his Orange Kush...so technically, his source could bet on a BS game Friday morning, tamper with the product Friday afternoon, and phase three = profit. i'm pretty sure he'd be making a profit already...and my assumption is that he probably likes the purple stuff. Not likes...LOVES Wekse has the same source.
  24. I've always wondered what I would do if I went to a baseball game between two teams that I didn't care about. In this case, I would probably go and just pretend that it's the world series. living in dc and detroit the last 8 years, i've done this frequently. i tend to drink a lot. Yeah I drink and make comments loud enough for people to hear about how terrible D-Backs fans are. Unfortunately they are as terrible as I say and thusly don't really care. Who cares if they suck? We were 50-31 at home with our mediocre crowds, sellouts don't = wins, so criticizing the fact we can barely sell out is pointless.Hey what's up mr. drawing bad conclusions... I said nothing of the quality of the team or the team's home play. I merely pointed out something that you seem to already know which I happen to enjoy doing when I'm at a game I don't care about. Really isn't a DBacks city/state anyways, sell outs happen across the street at US Airways with the Suns, which is better for me since I have a stronger passion for them.DBacks have been around for only 10 years, to expect big crowds is pretty dumb..gotta give them 10 more years and if it's still pathetic, then you really know they suck Oh I agree. The Suns have a fantastic fan base, as do the other established teams like ASU Football and Baseball. The Cardinals fan base is impressive considering how pathetic the organization is. D-Backs base will grow 10-20 years from now when all the little kids with Gonzo jerseys are adults and can spend a little more cash.
