  1. There's still like 10 minutes left to get to 8.
  2. It's looking like the USMNT will be in a scenario where they'll have to try to run up the score vs T&T to win the group. I, for one, am okay with this.
  3. This also happened to be the first weekend my 5yo really got into watching the games. After the win tonight, his only question was " Is watching USA soccer always this fun?" My response was " It might be."
  4. I know the Gold Cup is effectively meaningless this year, but I still want to see the USMNT field an A squad against T&T just to bury them like 10-0.
  5. Look, if you can't see the humor in what is objectively the worst possible answer to the question "What team are you a fan of?", that's on you.
  6. TT already pointed this out, but this is a good illustration of the logical inconsistency of the argument for 10 being batting around. In that first diagram, it looks like the next inning would start with Madrigal, not Nico. The inning doesn't end on the 9th batter, it ends after the 9th batter. So the line needs to be drawn to Nico, so the next inning would start with Nico. The dots are the players, and the arrows are the ABs, so Nico leads off, the AB taken points to Dansby who bats next, and so on and so forth. So when Madrigal ends this theoretical inning, logically, the AB should complete and the line drawn to Nico, would would start the next batting process in the next inning. When 10 batters bat, it doesn't look like your second diagram, that diagram would need 2 arrows from Nico to Dansby, since Nico gets 2 ABs.
  7. He's just a fan of whatever team is winning.
  8. This is a bizarre analogy because a lineup is a line, not a circle. If you arranged the order in a circle, 9 batters would make a complete circle.
  9. Clearly, batting around is 9 if you bat 9. 10 is an overlap.
  10. Look, I'll go out on a limb here and say if the Cubs offense continues to average scoring 10 runs per game, I like their chances.
  11. I still think they should appeal the Wes red, I didn't see anything on camera that Wes did in particular any differently than anyone else. Sergino has to be smarter about being goaded into a red, though. The referee completely lost control of the match after the 3rd goal and should never work one of these games again. Punish Mexico for gooning it up right away, hell, give them 2 reds at the beginning of that shitshow, and it doesn't devolve the way it did.
  12. Do what? Get your shirt ripped? No clue why he was sent off, and that should be reviewed.
  13. CONCACAF gonna CONCACAF.
  14. This on a day where Fulmer strikes out 2, allows a grounder to 2nd that was thrown away and a sac fly. Maybe sit out the next take.
  15. That's certainly a take for an inning that involved 3 hits and a run.
  16. Live look at wolf:

    Golf thread

    And just when I thought the rich old white guys that ran the PGA tour were taking a moral stand. There goes any further reason to follow pro golf.
  18. At this point I'm curious if the Bears are just going to forgo rushing the QB entirely, becoming the first defense to drop into an 11 player zone.
  19. I see that Dallas responded in true Texas pearl-clutching fashion and withdrew from the tournament because of the slanderous allegation, rather than investigating it.
  20. US U-20s make their fourth straight World Cup quarterfinals. They have lost in the quarters in the last 3 WCs. Their opponent this time will be either Gambia or Uruguay.
  21. Hard to believe the US looks this good in a World Cup knockout match. Up 4-0 now in the 90th minute, it's all over but the final whistle.
  22. U20 USMNT playing the round of 16 against New Zealand now. Up 1-0 in the 21st minute and dominating possession.
  23. Well written article on how Leeds' downfall wasn't Marsch and the Americans' fault, but rather the opposite: https://sports.yahoo.com/leeds-premier-league-relegation-americans-everton-leicester-173202394.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly90LmNvLw&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAK9mceezTUgaiJ52B4OgYCS6Y6rGx8rf6CBQ6Nij_jqHSNdawQwycQdGM9cP_F2bJJOIMCfhxCR980aLAid45TQtozPrdAVygduvqcERvu4B2fNZgaUdaz3BW7qfomAxv_nlspBtE-laC61t_I2o2njaiySz3BflXBKmdXJg-Tl0 TLDR: Under Marsch, Leeds was a good team with unfortunate bad results. After Marsch, Leeds was the worst team in the league both in performance and results, coinciding with Adams getting hurt with about 6 weeks to play.
