  1. The one time Robben doesn't go down.
  2. Ineista should be booked by now.
  3. [expletive]
  4. We need a shampoo commercial with Puyol.
  5. Now the cards are starting to get out of hand. Iniesta could have gotten one there based on the previous two.
  6. Thats every match he plays.
  7. It should have been. De Jong makes some of the worst tackles game after game.
  8. 4 yellows already. Dutch have settled in the last 10 minutes.
  9. Don't toy with me like this.
  10. Highly doubtful
  11. If we could get Hellickson or Desmond Jennings it would make this trade deadline a complete success. I don't think Jennings is available. I believe Desmond is the eventual repacement for either Carl Crawford or BJ Upton. So I doubt the Rays will consider moving him. He's not, but he is one of the few prospects I have really wanted for the past 2 years. Upton will be gone to make room for him just as Garza will be gone to make room for Hellickson. It's the Tampa way and they will get some more replacement prospects for them too.
  12. Don't get into any trouble :-).
  13. Torres starting on the bench. I really have no clue to how this will play out. Both teams want possession the Dutch will try to play to their midfielders more while the Spanish will try to play to their forwards more.
  14. If we could get Hellickson or Desmond Jennings it would make this trade deadline a complete success.
  15. Ozil has been very unimpressive the last 3 games for me.
  16. Wow quick equalizer. Forlan simply knows how to score, seems like almost every chance he gets in at least on target.
  17. [expletive] them man!!!!!!! *preparing to buy tickets when they came here* oh man, i know. tickets down here were impossible to get for the lakers and cavs the last two years, but i can't imagine when the heat come to town. Tickets in OKC should be selling out just to watch their own team play. I would pay to see Durant play before Wade and Bosh.
  18. How did Germany pick up two yellows in the 1st 10 minutes? 3rd place games are generally a little sloppy with the underdog winning a fair amount of the time. Weather looks shitty, hope tomorrow is nice.
  19. Yeah Gaelic Football is cool, they used to show it on Fox Sports about 10 years ago every now and then. Actually it might have just been a weekly highlight show but still fun to watch.
  20. This is why MLS clubs are creating academies. The problem with this in the US right now are that these academy-trained players won't become US national team players (I'm looking at Subotic, Rossi, Najar, etc.) Thats also because the federation will botch the handling of this.
  21. Hopefully the group stage team of the 08 Euro's shows up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHOYkLy05B4
  22. no, it's pretty different than rugby. in rugby you must pass the ball backwards, try to run it across the end line and there are scrums. aussie rules has no scrums, lots of forward passing, more kicking and the only way you can score is by kicking. Its pretty easy to pick up the basic concept to follow as well. If you kick the ball and your teammate catches it in the air it is basically a free kick. Outside of that you are going to be hit. I think these are probably the toughest SOB's I have seen play any sport.
  23. This thread may die in two days but what the hell, I have always loved watching it. ESPN2 now shows a match every Friday night @ 11pm. I remember last years final getting a pretty good reception here. Still have 8 weeks to go in the regular season before the playoffs start. http://www.afl.com.au/
  24. We need a mini youth movement, is Arena really the guy to lead that? I know nothing about Kreis outside of him annoying me as a player. Can we at least interview a foreigner?
  25. Most of the ones I know don't like Davis either regardless. I would take Smoak over Davis everyday of the week. I am a little surprised at this still though, but yeah they are still loaded in the minors. With Ryan unsure if he can buy the team he might figure why not go for it now.
