  1. It's starting to look like we should have cashed in on him over the summer...after today, Lerner might just sanction a move this month.
  2. Maybe Chicharito on loan...Moyes doesn't rate him, but he is desperate for playing time in this WC year... Chicharito (loan) Lescott (loan, and he'd probably be willing to take a hometown discount on wages) Kiyotake (straight transfer) Sorted.
  3. Fox Sports gets the FA Cup this weekend... I suppose it's gonna be Gus Johnson at the helm...got my earplugs ready...
  4. I got it: "Last night, Lorenzo and Ken had a huge fight and Lorenzo cussed him out and threatened him! It was so bad!"
  5. Another blue ribbon moment for mindless bureaucracy

    I think you are getting what we get from clashing Canadian and Caribbean systems. And global warming
  7. True, I'm saying WW2 was more fascinating, but I'm saying so without a great breadth of knowledge of WW1. That said, WW2 is endlessly fascinating on so many levels, it defies belief.

    I've got my thermal long johns on, sweat pants, wool socks and wool slippers, three upper layers and my knit Villa hat. Just hoping the power doesn't go out!
  9. Sadly overlooked due to WW2 and all the images we have of it. Not to mention the overall more fascinating aspects of WW2 in general. I'd like to learn much more about WW1, and plan to do more reading on it. As soon as I finish the 200 books on WW2 I'm meaning to read!

    Weather...

    It's a real rarity even in New England. This is Edmonton weather.
  11. Reports saying Mayweather-Pacqiao will happen in September. They'll both make their entrances in wheelchairs apparently.
  12. I did all the LFR on my hunter, so I've seen that content. I'm not a fan of LFR, because it's all nerfed, and I'm playing with strangers. I'd rather do guild runs, but my server is Horde dominated, and the Ally on it is mostly PVP. Looks like I'm gonna xfer my toons to a better balanced server with more PVE.
  13. But if it all goes tits up from the off, he'll have hurt his reputation regardless of Tan. A better team with a less diabolical owner would have been the smarter move for him, IMO. He'll be under immense pressure straight away, rather than putting his stamp on a team in the summer, making his own signings, establishing team unity, etc. It's a risky move. People will be watching him to see how he handles the pressure, and if he can't, it hurts his standing as a manager.
  14. I never saw him when he was a studio pundit, but I can see how he could come across like that. Even as a player, he had a kind of an aloof persona on the pitch. Maybe that's why he was basically bullied by so many players during his career.
  15. Just leveled my monk to 90 last night. My profs are both 600. Nobody raids on my server anymore...I guess I'll just quit until the expansion. No need to grind heroics for gear I won't use in raids... Goodbye for now, Azeroth...

    Woot, officially a blizzard now
  17. I think the fans deserve a paid winter break
  18. We've got Graeme Le Saux doing game commentary now on NBCSN, and he's pretty good. No nonsense, and no annoying accent. Not overeager to get a word in like so many other sidekicks. Not a huge fan of Arlo Whatshisface, but he's still better than any American announcer we used to suffer.
  19. YouTube actually has a decent number of full matches from yesteryear.
  20. Bolton are so boring on so many levels I can hardly be bothered to read the whole story on this.
  21. Wrong job for Ole. Maybe the worst possible job for him to wet his feet in Britain. I'd have waited until after the season, for the inevitable interest from more than just Cardiff. At the first sign of struggle, Tan will throw him under the bus too. But Ole doesn't seem as thick skinned as Mackay. He needs a job with a patient owner, not a Bond villain.
