  1. No real surprises on either side. Up the FUCKING REDS!
  2. Here's what I don't get about Cam. What's the big deal about his story? Why would Hannah care? He didn't indicate his illness was ongoing and it's pretty common for people that age to lose their grandparents, and the dog? I love my dogs, but I mean wtf? Plus they seemed to be some time ago.
  3. Funny, I always think of 635 as a East/West highway.
  4. Only made it through ~20 minutes last night before other things came up. Saw the part where they were doing the simulated labor part. I told mrs. pied that seemed dumb and she said it was great. Awesome for guys to experience that. I told her it was exactly like that show Jack @$$ and she had no real comeback lol.
  5. I think our perspective is forever skewed. Dude was at ~$13k and bet $6k and was up by ~$6.5k at that point. In hindsight it was the key miss, but if you go back in time 1.5 months, that's a solid/bold wager IMO.
  6. Good stuff, notice you have Woodburn but not Brewster. I get the feeling that Klopp likes Divock and Brewster and may call it a day unless someone comes available. Depending on wages/pt wants, I like having Milner around. Think long-term this is an important window. Think we need to get at least one player who is a bang on starter in a couple years, preferably up front. Those guys are putting on a lot of miles and I could see a steep decline. Of course we're putting ourselves in a position where recruitment (with playing time available) won't be an issue.
  7. 6PM in DFW, but I watch them all on DVR. Good to know to avoid this thread before then.
  8. Canceled. Not surprised, just not a story that translates to TV.
  9. My kid’s a keeper so I’m ok with it. Not sure when/how long it will take to work down.
  10. Then they should do the same on corners IMO. To me, it's attempting to solve one issue by addressing a similar issue. You're not allowed to shove a player out of the way in a wall or corner or whatever. Enforce that first. The crap that happens on corners is silly.
  11. I don't get what that solves. Who cares if they duck? I'd argue, if a team can pull it off, then cool. They usually kick it straight into one of the other ~5 guys though. Other new rules: Ball doesn't need to leave the penalty area on goal kicks. Don't think that matters much at the pro level, but if it migrates to the youth level, watch out. PKs - ball will be dead after the kick/save just like they are in a PK tiebreaker situation. Can't put the rebound in. I'm torn on that one.
  12. wasn't directed at me, but as a Liverpool fan, slip jokes from a Chelsea fan seem to be fair game imo. I toured Anfield prior/during the Main Stand renovation and while an unbelievable experience, the tunnel area was pretty spartan. The locker room was closed because it was game day, but the pictures don't compare with what we see in most colleges.
  13. could have worded a bit different, but said he will "not be playing in CA/AFCON." Just an added plus imo.
  14. Taking the nutso luck of late goals in the Spring, I've been very impressed with Origi, both play and work rate. Makes sense to keep him IMO from a style of play/learning curve perspective in addition to not playing in CA/AFCON.
  15. OK, so what do we need to do this summer GK - Need backup, probably a younger one Alisson. Migs is almost certainly gone, but thanks for being a decent player, and great team RB/LB - secure, but need depth, wouldn't mind spending money here (Gomez can provide cover) TAA/Robertson are super stars as it is CB - Don't think we need to do anything here unless the opportunity presents itself VVD - duh Gomez/Matip - great partners, need to keep an eye on Joe with the injuries Lovren - clearly #4, but sometimes that's good MF - We have six/seven players vying for three spots each game - if there's something great available, go out, but I mean, you know this is a good place to be IMO Fabinho/Henderson/Gini/Keita/Oxlade-Chamberlain/Shaqiri, maybe Milner Assuming Lallana is gone, not certain F - double duh, hard to imagine starting anyone else for the time, but need cover. Could see a mid-price player and a project to go along with Brewster Salah/Mane/Bobby - two of this year's golden boot winners Origi - seems like he played himself into an extension Sturridge - thanks for 13/14 and we'll always have that brilliant Chelski goal, but I'll root for you wherever you end up.
  16. Not unexpected, and not going to let myself lose sight of what this team has done and what’s in front. One loss, think about that. Wow.
  17. Kid’s tournaments are canceled, so it’s church/brunch. Have to leave ~9:15. Thoughts and prayers appreciated.

    any info if they're including a standing section?
  19. Mine has been to Anfield twice with me, so it's hard to complain too much. The two mothers, especially mine, complicate it a but more. Then add in the birthday, and it's kind of the perfect storm. I'm just hoping the kid's games kind of interrupt it, because no one really minds when I'm streaming a game at one of his games. It's at church and restaurants that seem s little awkward.
  20. As of right now, my schedule is kid's game @8AM, a second team game at either 9:30/11:15 (possibility of additional games), church at 9:45 brunch at 11. Mother's Day is also the wife's birthday, and we'll have both our mothers at church/game/brunch or whatever we do. Bad news is I have NO idea how I'm watching the game, the good news is with all the chaos, I'm in a better position to be able to catch it if we only had church/brunch.
  21. Thoughts as to the legitimacy of this website? Link to the “Never Give Up” shirt Mo wore the other night. https://hollateez.com/ngulvf?pr=FREESH&s=hanes-5250&c=Black&p=FRONT
  22. Seen on RAWK. Clearly the first is correct and I could live with all three. That black one might be SWEET. Appears I may have waited too long for a keeper jersey. Checked yesterday and they were already sold out. The new home kit isn't an all-timer for me, but more than adequate.
  23. Can't recall two full episodes in the same (relatively small) country. Probably wrong, but did they actually have to travel in this episode?
  24. Good(not perfect) news. Liverpool handed major Andy Robertson fitness boost Liverpool star Andy Robertson is set to be fit for the Champions League Final. The left-back had a scan on his right leg and it confirmed that there was no ligament damage or break detected, according to the Daily Record.
