  1. its played anywhere where people have feet. the people's game. the most popular sport on the planet by far.
  2. its the world's sport because all you need is something round.
  3. it works because nothing is happening for most of the "action." basketball, hockey (and yes, soccer) have almost constant movement amd something is always happening. baseball is a game of standing around for the most part.
  4. i remember when beckham came to mls and everyone on the old site told me soccer would never catch on in america. now mls is thriving. i'll see you all this winter for the world cup.
  5. there's blood i tell ya! blood!
  6. come on staal. this game is very frustrating how we cant get anything going on the power play and every time they throw the puck at the net it gets tipped in for a goal.
  7. cant shoot like that from cade and expect to win. i see from the box score that killian has returned to form.
  8. gettin' worked now.
  9. i suppose if you dont like strategy and tactics, you can watch "soccer on crack", which is hockey.
  10. no wonder you like baseball.
  11. soccer is much more exciting than baseball. the best thing about baseball is that its boring and you dont actually have to pay attention. put it on in the background and go do yard work...
  12. they were up 2-0 but being outplayed. and then sure enough, now its 2-2.
  13. by almost every advanced statistical measure, bert is better than mantha. he scores, he defends, he goes into the corners, he gets back on defense, he is physical and will fight. i wouldnt trade bert for mantha straight up. if they offered me vrana and a #1 for bert i dont think i would take it. if i was a playoff contender looking for a top 6 forward for the playoffs, bert would be at the top of the list.
  14. MB is day drinking again.
  15. this whole thread is a bunch of old men shaking their fists at clouds. i'm just glad that its not me for once.
  16. i think they take a qb at 32 if one is there.
  17. bert is built for the playoffs. mantha got a first and a top line player and he hadnt done squat in the playoffs. bert has better numbers than toffoli, is younger than toffoli, and has a game that should translate well to the playoffs. the only downside - and its a huge - is that canada wont let him in the country. that would depress his market for sure. i hope they keep bert unless a godfather offer comes along. all i'm saying is that if toffoli sets the market, bert SHOULD garner a godfather offer.
  18. if that's what toffoli got from the flames, the wings should get at least that much - if not more - for bertuzzi. stupid vaccine rule.
  19. its a fair call. the complaint from the bengals would be why they didnt call it all game and the suddenly got flag happy on the rams last drive. the non-call on higgins when he blatantly facemasked ramsey was the more egregious one.
  20. the third round pick from the rams was last year. they would want the extra year on the qb pick that comes from drafting a player in round one. there is no chance they take the qb just two picks later and lose that extra year.
  21. it doesnt make much sense to take a qb with the second pick of round 2 rather than the last pick of round one.
  22. you cant win a title without a qb on a rookie contract, havent you heard?
  23. unusual considering the man can barely afford groceries on his tiny salary.
