  1. Yep, I read that Guardian(?) piece, and I really felt awful for the guy. Based on what he said, there's also somewhat of an anti-intellectualism way of thinking in the game. He was ridiculed for reading broadsheets and books on bus rides, etc. He wasn't a lad. So he was a target. **** sad, really.
  2. He's getting destroyed on the Sunderland boards
  3. O'Neill is a relic with a relic's ideas. I have no idea why he's rated so highly. I suppose he won't be soon enough.
  4. Smart move. I used my Wild Card to try and save my team, and brought in Van Persie and Benteke to go along with Suarez upfront.
  5. I wouldn't. Gabby is just more of an all around threat than Zog. He gives defenders fits, and can supply a decent cross, as well as score goals (albeit in bunches). Zog is like a slower version of Ashley Young on one of Ashley Young's worst days.
  6. There is really no justification for freezing out a fit Bent, who has (on the whole) conducted himself pretty well under the circumstances. He's been humiliated by Lambert with the stripping of the captaincy and subsequent benching that has never been explained to supporters. Benteke saved Lambert tonight; had we drawn or lost, I'm convinced people would start calling for Lambert's sacking. He needs to sort this out quick. Weimann's performance tonight should have won Bent a start next match. We'll see.
  7. Unconvincing win, we'll get pummeled by better sides playing like that. Benteke saved Lambert from having to explain his Bent omission, which is turning into a complete farce, given how few goals we've scored this season. That said, it was 3 vital points at home against our relegation rivals. Huge win.
  8. Crap first half. They look like two of the three worst teams in the league. Bent would've buried that chance that Weimann made a mess of....Lambert needs to explain himself if we don't win this.
  9. Websites that don't allow you to comment without a Facebook account
  10. Biggest match in a long time...anything less than a win is a disaster
  11. Tampa have extended Longoria for $100m, I was certain he'd walk or force a trade. Just another sign that the NY-Boston stranglehold on the division is a thing of the past. With a resurgent Baltimore, a dangerous Tampa, and a suddenly flush Toronto, the division is more competitive then ever.
  12. True, Williams hasn't been that great either, but I'm giving him a pass, cuz he's banged up and playing through it.
  13. The battle for the last playoff spot is gonna be bloody
  14. This could have been funnier, but still worth a watch. It's a sugar coated middle finger to Western condescension
  15. Harry's off to a good start, ripping his new charges...But I think he'll actually help them, and that's not good for us...
  16. He's certainly redeemed himself after his run of terrible movies in which he acted.
  17. Me and my old man went to see Skyfall yesterday, great movie, I'm liking the way they're getting more and more away from the over the top ridiculousness and camp of previous Bond flicks. Then we came home and watched Moneyball, which was actually a good movie. I had my doubts cuz I don't think Brad Pitt is a very good actor, and I wasn't sure how the book could translate into a dramatic movie. But it worked.
  18. I think the Browns are on the up...I hate to bring Lerner into it, so I won't
  19. I've got Joe Johnson and Deron Williams in my fantasy team...Johnson is killing me with his shooting pct.
  20. The Moyes one was good, but the Farley one you've got now is funny as well.
  21. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OmlIPWl3Wk
  22. $425,000,000.00 Powerball jackpot for this Wednesday. Biggest jackpot in US history.
