Good things for Tahiti: - Well, their keeper did have more saves than Spain's keeper...
-
Over. Over/Under on Spain's possession at 85%, what do you take?
-
Have we really seen a weak glove hand from Crawford, consistently? I was confused by that. Doesn't seem to match up with what I've seen from him. Not that he's the world's greatest, but that was terrible. No, it was just a bad night from Crawford. He gets one, and the Hawks didn't even lose.
-
I mean, Crawford was off, Leddy didn't play, Hossa was a non factor, the rest of the D was tired and/or terrible, and the Hawks still managed to score six goals and win.
-
Both teams had equal amounts of pressure. I think the home atmosphere and crowd made Boston's chances seem bigger and more frequent. It was a very even game. No it wasn't, statistically. Hawks were just bad on the PK and left too many open shots on rushes coming back at them. I don't know stats for scoring chances it just seemed like it was even or in Boston's favor. I see shots were 47-33 Hawks. Chara, Marchand and Seguin were -3. So was Hammer. Rozsival, Keith and Bickell were +3. It only seemed that way in here because 75% of the people in this thread this week thought the series was over already and the Hawks are outclassed.

Y'all are out of your [expletive] minds. The Hawks dominated this game. Out chanced them almost 2 to 1, and only a tired/bad defense kept it close.
-
[expletive] all the haters. And yes, the Hawks were playing a man down for about 50 minutes.

Great article analyzing the US attack from last night: http://www.americansoccernow.com/articles/united-states-beats-the-bunker-to-defeat-honduras
-
Of course, since I said that, Mexico has actually controlled play pretty well and kept it in the offensive zone.
-
I'm torn on Mexico here at the Confed Cup. Them doing well reflects well for CONCACAF on the world stage, and likely will have them retain their coach. But still...it's Mexico. I can't help but laugh at Brazil dismantling them.

With Costa Rica's win, the US now needs only 3 points to assure at worst a tie for 3rd in qualifying. And if the 3 points is against someone other than Jamaica, they finish no worse than 3rd.
-
USMNT now 5 points clear of...well, everybody, I guess.
-
CR-Panama scoreless in the 32nd minute. Draw is best case for US winning the hex, CR win is best case for US securing qualification early.
-
AFC qualifying just about done now. Japan, Australia, South Korea and Iran qualify. Uzbekistan and Jordan will playoff for the right to lose to Uruguay/some other CONMEBOL country.
-
Love WC qualifying. Wild ending to Uzbekistan-Qatar today, as when Iran beat South Korea, Uzbekistan needed to make up a 6 goal differential on SK in the last 30 minutes of their match to qualify over them, and thus needed 7 goals in the last 30 minutes to qualify. They got 5.

Minor League Discussion & Boxes 6-17-13

You do realize you can't just do that, right? -
Tahiti scores! Considering they scored goals in just one match of OFC qualifying, that's something.
-
2 goals in 10 minutes? That Tahiti-Spain match is going to be rough.
-
Daily substitutions and waivers go. Maybe now the drama can be limited to the outcome of the matchups. Three teams have already surpassed their win totals from last year.
-
After all the [expletive] you give vancouver you're panicking worse than Luongo with someone in front of him.
-
You are out of your mind.

6/15 Cubs (Feldman) @ Mets (Niese) 12:10 CT CSN/720
bukie replied to UMFan83's topic in Fred Hornkohl Game Thread Forum
Cubs 8-21 against the NL Central, 20-17 against everyone else. -
I thought pitchers could be swapped in and out whenever so long as there were no more than two relievers active.
