  1. wayne rooney is basically me when i bought a used copy of fifa 2013 or whatever and just launched shots over the goal for like 2 hours before getting pissed off and never playing the game again
  2. wayne rooney IS the mole
  3. Steve Lepore ‏@stevelepore 4m when does wario balotelli sub in
  4. not until monday : (
  5. that was outstanding. i thought that kick was horrible went it went up in the air. luckily that one man has a magnet in his brain.
  6. also, in honor of italy's goal, i am now eating chef boyardee ravioli
  7. For an analogy, they are the Dallas Cowboys of international soccer. Maybe with some Notre Dame mixed in. That said, they aren't from a romance language country so I'll root for them over many of the teams in the world cup, including their whole group. But I certainly won't be sad if they fail. that makes sense, thank you
  8. i see a lot of references everywhere that everyone hates england and always roots against them. why?
  9. i wish these announcers would gasp and hold their breath anytime somebody tapped the ball back to england's goalie before resetting
  10. i am not a fan of italy's plan to just pass over and over again no matter where the ball is until someone gets the ball one foot from the goal and the goalkeeper is dead
  11. if america loses let's call them the yank yanks
  12. i don't really understand the enthusiasm for schwarber as a part-time catcher. obviously if he can stick and be a real catcher, that's outstanding. but if he's just a guy who goes back there once a week, it's hard to be excited. if he gets to the majors as any sort of exciting prospect, you're not going to mess with him risking injury/wear by catching. imagine if a hitter like rizzo got to the majors and the cubs started dicking around with him at catcher. it'd be infuriating. as such, the part-time catcher stuff really only comes up if he's a middling cof/1b guy and needs the catching on his resume in order to justify a spot on the team. that's a terrible outcome, and not one i'd be excited about at all.
  13. here is today's version of the watchability ratings that tt posted yesterday. the two late games sound right up my alley. http://www.sbnation.com/soccer/2014/6/14/5809496/world-cup-viewing-guide-day-two
  14. wtg everyone who said this game would be a bloodbath
  15. that was a total nba garbage time "nah i don't need to pass, i'm just going to dribble around until i see a shot i like" play
  16. yeah i think it's the first tiebreaker after points
  17. AWESOME
  18. at the very least there should be no offsides when the ball is that close to the goal
  19. this is my new favorite team, everything they do is awesome
  20. why doesn't everyone play crazy aggressive defense like holland? it's way more fun to watch
  21. it should be a bunch of people of different nationalities all strategically falling down and grabbing their shins while pretending to be hurt
  22. yeah, unless the plan is to force him to start switch-hitting, that line is just total nonsense
  23. DAP FOR SOCCER that was really cool when the ball bounced off that one guy's back and almost went in the goal
  24. i don't know very much about soccer cleats but i hope you can kick them and make sparks on concrete like you can with baseball cleats
