  1. It was 2015. It lasted two years.
  2. https://www.espn.com/soccer/mexico-mex/story/4360278/fifa-probing-mexico-anti-gay-chant-in-olympic-qualifier-vs-united-states Maybe FIFA actually does something after 20 years . . . but I doubt it.
  3. Kind of dull stuff today. Chelsa-RM and City-PSG
  4. man, PSG-Bayern was fun! Every now and then the home and home format creates great tension!
  5. Perhaps it woke him up because he got minutes . . .
  6. What's up with Friday off days?
  7. https://www.espn.com/soccer/soccer-transfers/story/4355664/barcelona-open-to-offers-for-usmnts-konrad-in-summer-sources Have to agree that playing first team in a top league is better than playing in 3rd division in Spain.
  8. Kind of seems like his plan to overwhelm Augusta may not work that well.
  9. seems tough to take 31 shots with 12 on target and lose.
  10. Pulisic in squad for Porto . . . not a great day for EPL today.
  11. I don't think it would be a reach to say the seeding wasn't great this year.
  12. hard to say just this season. Seems like this has been going on for years now.
  13. You would think that could be a clause in the contract though - ie void if convicted of a crime. Right, it's a PR risk not a legal/contractual one I'm guessing the majority of KU basketball fans don't care that he cheats.

  15. Outside of more general quibbles that boil down to personal preference, the only thing that seems really out of place is Horvath both being in the list and being so high. Feels like he doesn't have a leg up on the slew of other options(Turner, Johnson, Guzan, Hamid) even if he does have a legitimate shot. The only name not mentioned that feels like it deserves mention is Sam Vines. He's had a few full team appearances, and Robinson is the only other true LB on the list. Maybe some other names you can say are in the conversation, like Acosta, Yedlin, Mueller, Cardoso, but they're in competition for the bottom of the rroster. I guess a backup keeper has to be on the list so maybe it's the role not the person? Acosta for sure. I don't see Yedlin in there after two more years of sliding. I could see Konrad playing his way into a spot though it's speculative.
  16. https://www.espn.com/soccer/united-states-usa/story/4349702/usmnt-world-cup-2022-big-board-pulisic-first-on-the-plane-to-qatarbut-is-there-room-for-aaronson Not sure too much to argue about here. Aaronson for sure but anyone else left off you feel should be in? The first 6 are clear starters . . .
  17. And then the following week we get back to the best competition on earth. That's right CONCACAF Champions League kicks off in just 7 days. lol. If only they played early in the morning while I'm drinking my coffee.
  18. Great return to club soccer this weekend: Saturday is Bayern (sans Lewandowski) at Leipzig - love to see Leipzig make it a race. At same time City is at Leicester. In Spain, Athletico is at Sevilla. Nice that the qualifiers mean something instead of friendlies, but too few of them are competitive to make it interesting.
  19. Wind better blow in a lot for the first one. Hard to imagine being better than the Dodgers and Padres given their park advantages, and frankly, much better rotations. But, it is bold!
  20. could both be challenging - likely T&T in a field underwater and then Canada at home. - should win both though. Thanks for breaking it down!
  21. I said "meh"
  22. Let us know when the real games start . . .
