That's an interesting one - Celta have historically loved to attack.
-
Paxten Aaronson is the man . . . boy. Good to dominate CONCACAF at this level. Lots of good stuff in these games.

What the....? USC and UCLA in negotiations to join B1G

pretty sure the UCLA fan should be asian-American -

Oregon. Is this just football? -
There is no way this is a negative though - Steffen playing more can only be a positive for the USMNT
-
26 man squads for WC. I guess this benefits countries with deeper rosters though doesn't seem unreasonable. Who are the next 3 for US?

"He should have ran," Baker said after the game. "Back in our day, the next guy would have gotten drilled." "The way you keep it from happening [is] don't let him hit a ball over the fence, too," Showalter said.
-
Two of them in the group, both probably better than any non-CONCACAF opponent they'll see coming in aside from maybe Uruguay, plenty of options of teams in the run-up. I'd just rather have seen a Spain/Netherlands/Germany than one of Saudi Arabia/Japan. I think you're over-rating Wales but basically just stronger opponents is what you're saying. Certainly the two nations league games were worthless.

I don't really see any big advantage to playing a UEFA team. Why would that matter?
-
Japan and Saudi Arabia seem like good final prep games.

ok, I'll work on it. -- Juan I am legit lol'ing in my office at this ultimate debate ender. Seriously though, if a south american team gets drawn into Miami, it's going to be (fun! positive!) bedlam. One of the funnest sports experiences I've had was Chile-Argentina at Levis in the Copa America - it was like being in Buenos Aires.

Is Miami really worse for traffic than other places? And what's with the vaguely racist dig at South Americans? Yes and if you think me being aware of the fact that South Americans in particular love coming to Miami for a multitude of cultural and geographic reasons vaguely racist, I think you’re vaguely clueless about Miami. I live in Florida. I attend sporting events at hard rock stadium. Traffic is Armageddon on a normal day because our infrastructure is a joke. During F1 and the super bowl you’re not going anywhere all week. As for the South American thing, I guess maybe try to get to know more Latinos? Miami is America’s Latin Capitol. ok, I'll work on it. -- Juan

Minor League Discussion & Boxes, 6-16-22

rumor says Dest going to Sevilla as makeweight for Kounde. Not the worst thing in the world soon long as he is playing.
-
seems like maybe I'm not the only one not excited about the nations league (in Europe)
-
Not getting the chance to fully integrate and build around Gio has really been a problem when it comes to understanding our best lineup and shape. On the other hand, this allowed the emergence of Weah, which doesn't happen if Gio is available. Not sure that's worth it but at least it's a benefit to a crappy situation. I think more rotation will be needed than you guys are suggesting . . . what is the approach? Try and beat Wales for sure and then adjust? If you do beat Wales, do you rotate for England (not punting the game but maybe not your best lineup?)
-
What I find unfair is that the Cubs have to play 162 games against teams better than them

https://www.espn.com/soccer/blog-the-toe-poke/story/4684903/paris-saint-germain-star-neymar-makes-world-series-of-poker-debut-in-las-vegas well, he is the master of the flop!
-
De La Torre seemed like the star of that game. How would you rotate the midfield? MMA can't play all the games or not all of all the games - Acosta seems locked in at the 6 back so is it De La Torre and Aaronson? Or just go with 5?
-
Shortstop to second baseman is an unusual put out. But yes. This is a stupid decision that is almost certainly driven because of sunk costs. don't you look foolish now!

6.8 I’m at this mofo and it’s storming
stitchface replied to Ding Dong Johnson's topic in Fred Hornkohl Game Thread Forum
just give both teams an "L" - that's the most likely outcome for both.
