    I can only imagine Coomer attempting to call that play also.
  2. soccer10k
    JAVY!!
  3. soccer10k
    Why? Votto was playing in and the ball was fairly hard hit.
  4. soccer10k
    Nice job, Heyward!
  5. soccer10k
    Any relievers left in the pen? I forget who we have with the the reliever swaps the last week or so.
  6. soccer10k
    Reds radio guy (I'm listening in my car) was crushing Votto after the error saying he refuses to get in front of a ground ball.
  7. soccer10k
    Why are you bringing Rondon in now? If you were going to bring him in, it should have been after the Votto homer.
  8. soccer10k
    Damn, thought that was going to drop.

    Javy, we're trying to get KB another PA, we don't need outs on the bases.

    Some manager in the last week or so challenged an infield groundout down a bunch of runs in the ninth inning. He ended up being right and the runner was safe but it was still hilarious.

    It's got to be Navarro, right? I only say that because of the "this is amazing" part.

    I like this game a lot more than I did about 3 minutes ago.

    But Diaz wasn't frozen to the ground. He didn't play the ball either. If he had gone for the ball at all, then maybe you have a case. He doesn't go for the ball and he turns into Messi to make sure he gets him. And where the ball goes is largely irrelevant (it shouldn't be, but the way refs call the game it is). They give out PKs on balls that dudes lunge for and basically kick out of bounds just so they can beat the keeper to the ball and then trip over the keeper's arms. If any team should feel aggrieved over a red card, it's Argentina.

    That's a textbook yellow card. Messi has him beat and Diaz makes no attempt to play the ball and is only trying to get in Messi's way. I have no idea what you talking about with playing the ball perpendicular to his run. Messi pushes the ball to his right around Diaz because that's how you dribble around somebody and he's attempting to move that way before Diaz blocks him. Of course he's not doing to dribble right into Diaz. That would be dumb. And very little chance of catching up to that ball? Come on. He's got a yard or two on the guy behind him and 3 or 4 on the guy to his right. The Chilean in the middle isn't getting there and neither is the goalie. Messi was as good a bet as anyone to get that ball if he's not blocked.

    England-Iceland off to a fun start. 2-1 Iceland after 19 minutes.

    The Rojo red card wasn't even worthy of a yellow. He didn't really even touch Vidal.
  17. soccer10k
    No need to watch any more of this one.
  18. soccer10k
    The last couple innings have been extremely annoying.
  19. soccer10k
    I was about to laugh about sending Conforto down but then I looked up his numbers and saw he has a .519 OPS since May 1.
  20. soccer10k
    We totally missed it. It's not like there were five posts on it earlier on this page or anything.
  21. soccer10k
    Double, walk, no doubt HR in the ninth for Rosenthal.
  22. soccer10k
    completely stopped working for me Good to know it wasn't just me. At first it was Flash Player that just kept crashing but even when that worked, the video didn't play with any sort of consistency.
  23. soccer10k
    Great fake rally, Cubs.
  24. soccer10k
    Come on, Cogs!

    No excuses for Belgium to not at least make the semis. I have no idea what his job security is but does Belgium's coach get fired if they don't make the semis? The bottom half of the draw is loaded. The top, not so much. Funny that Italy wins the group and draws Spain while Belgium finishes second and gets Hungary, but that's the way it goes sometimes. In addition to winning the H2H match, the winner of Italy/Spain could have a road of Germany, France/England and then Belgium to win the title.
