  1. The logical person in me agrees with you, however over the next 10+ months I think he just might force his way onto the XI. I want more problems like this!
  2. So give me a starting XI formation now with Aron, Jozy, Clint, and Landon in it now? How do we structure this?
  3. DiCanio is going to turn a profit in a couple of years.
  4. Aron has been approved! http://m.ussoccer.com/News/Mens-National-Team/2013/08/Forward-Aron-Johannssons-Change-of-Association-Approved-by-FIFA.aspx
  5. Does Gulati have a specific person working with him that is tied to immigration. Seems like we have a need for this, now more than ever too with Zelalem.
  6. http://www.farkriffic.com/farks/johnnymanziel_nazisigning.gif If you ever want to have your head explode check out texags.com
  7. Sounded like just a rolled ankle and not too serious. But serious enough to again question his durability. What sucks is I pick 4th again in my keeper league and he is one of the guys I have been projecting to take. With probably 3 RB's already off the board.
  8. This might be the tightest overall season the EPL has had in a long time. At least from the standpoint we could see 3-4 teams battling for the title rather than 2. It won't have the finish we had two years ago when City won it, but that probably won't happen again I out lifetime. Lots more parity hopefully.
  9. I'm not sure about the red card Ajax got. The winner for AZ was pretty. While lacking defense the Eredivisie is always fun to watch. Christian Eriksen will be getting paid pretty soon. Not sure if Ajax sells him this window and if they can win it without him.
  10. AZ wins 3-2. Aron scores on a penalty again. Nice to see he has that job secured. Assuming he keeps that he might have a shot at breaking Jozy's record this year.
  11. JAB scores against Eintracht Frankfurt in a 6-1 rout. Julian Green also scored for Bayern II. I think im more excited for 2018 than 2014.
  12. Ajax and Alkmaar tomorrow. If you can watch that it should be an entertaining game.
  13. NBC sports has a nice two hour intro to the EPL that I'm watching now. It's basically an intro into the entire league with all 20 teams. If you have ever been to England that might help guide you to a team or city to support. With Clint gone Tottenham is no longer the easy choice for American's. Sunderland has a chance now w Jozy but their style in the past was not that attractive, however they have an offensive minded manager now. Arsenal have always been popular for playing a beautiful style, but are very frustrating in results. ManU is like cheering for the Yankees but they get results. where ManCity is like cheering for the Mets. Swansea is a nice club to jump on, but without the big name players but great to watch. Everton and Liverpool will give you consistency. Liverpool have a rich and at times ugly history, but one of my favorite players of the last 10 years. Chelsea will give you a shot at everything, but are a little tough to want to cheer for c
  14. Don't worry about how players are sold too early. First find a league and try to find a team based on some interests or a player, or channels you have. If you have Bein, the new NBC sports, and Fox Soccer you are in great shape. The EPL is the easiest to get into just based on TV coverage alone. Spain and Germany as well just harder to watch consistently. Start watching Champions League matches right away as well. If you have any local bars that open early Saturday mornings just for games, then give them a try too.
  15. Landon?
  16. Still have to hang on to him, but its a step in the right direction.
  17. Clint's home debut happens to be against Portland on August 25, has now sold out. 66,800 tickets sold.
  18. Not sure if I prefer Johnny Hancock or Money Badger yet.
  19. Looks like Agudelo to Stoke is being finished.
  20. Based on the game vs Panama the Sounders had passed the Mariners from what I could tell. I would doubt any other MLS teams has the clothing selection Seattle has. Even women have 20 different T-shirts to pick from. I left beyond impressed.
  21. The Uncle Nate character is pretty damn amusing.
  22. Aggie being Aggie
  23. Very happy for that city as they deserve this. Still torn on the move. Looking forward to my move to the Pacific Northwest in a couple of years. There are going to be a lot of Dempsey and Macklemore promos in the very near future.
  24. Agreed w US. My issue is that he was the American setting the precedent for other Americans in Europe. No one else had the success he had or played for a level of caliber team that could contend with anyone in Europe on any given night. Not ready for this to come to an end as it could have easily happened after the WC. He could start for probably 17 teams in the EPL today, and as hard as he worked to get to Tottenham I am just surprised to see this happen now.
