  1. He's a very streaky player though, so I can see a big club losing patience with him very quickly, and dropping him. He needs to start all the time, and he will if he goes to Palace.
  2. I'm an alcoholic, but at the low end of the spectrum. My drinking has scared me a couple of times to the point where I quit cold turkey, once for 18 months, another time for 5 years. I understand the grip it can get on someone. I count my blessings that I've never been a hard liquor drinker, or a morning drinker, or a drunk driver, or been to hospital over it, etc. He has one way out at this point. Really sad.
  3. It was a stupid joke he told, tasteless and insulting, but does it warrant a jail sentence? WTF
  4. Just watched The Big Short...a bit gimmicky, and kind of piggybacks on the Wolf of Wall Street aesthetic. But worth watching. I still don't know how Brad Pitt has an acting career though..
  5. Private places where nobody would judge you?
  6. If you were a little older, you may have seen this at the old Comiskey Park-
  7. This was the first of the "new" stadiums, I think they built it in 1992? You're the first person I've ever heard say they liked the place!

    Selling Lowton was a mistake.
  9. He had a bright start last preseason and early on, but totally faded by October. He's yet to really live up to his potential, and he's pushing 30...if we have the money, he's surplus, IMO.
  10. Mixed bag. Some good results, some awful, some dressing room turmoil, perplexing tactics and team selection. They say he's done good things for the Federation, trying to establish uniformity in up to date training and coaching methods from the youth level up. That could be his ultimate positive legacy, especially as so many American kids are beginning to really understand how to play the game, and we have no shortage of young athletes. With all the concussions in the NFL, I think more and more parents are pushing their kids to soccer. But as for the England job, I think he's just being polite and listening to what the FA is saying, but I doubt he wants to leave SoCal. I can see him managing an MLS side next.
  11. Most teams did not play that well. Iceland and Wales were good stories, there was the drama of Putin's guerrilla street force and a few nice goals, but yeah, not the best tournament.
  12. I didn't understand the Payet substitution, did he pick up a knock? 57th minute is early for a guy who was playing fairly well.
  13. I thinks its more some of their histrionics over the years
  14. Yeah, that's it. What's his status w/ Madrid?
  15. Still better than American football. I like that Clattenburg has let most of the rough stuff go. Portugal no answers, but credit their defense, France can't unlock them.
