    Euro 2024

    #1 team in the world has 5 goals in 3 games. Though their group was a tad easier.

    Probably the right call considering that the ball wasn’t on frame and France hasn’t put the ball on frame yet today. 🤷‍♂️ In my opinion, Kolo Muani should get an assist for that own goal.

    Deflection off of the 37 year-old defender’s leg… France 1 Belgica 0 88’

    This ref is awful. Shoving someone out of bounds and obviously NOT playing the ball is 100% a foul.

    Mbappe is pretty good for a Ninja Turtle. Weaving up the left side, he is something.

    Looks like the nurse has found Pulisic’s prostrate.

    USMNT 2024

    Ancelotti would not turn our roster into one of the best rosters in the world, but… He would put the right players on the field, in the right positions, using the best possible formation, with some of the best tactics that we could hope for. The guy doesn’t work miracles, but the guy does adapt his tactics to fit his roster. And that would be refreshing as fuck!

    Or Panama need to lose by 2 fewer goals than the USMNT. Bolivia’s GD is -7.

    USMNT 2024

    It’s a much more difficult group, but the stupidity of two of their opponents helped them.

    I have mentioned it before, but it all comes down to the first three letters- F O X The company promotes characters over the story. That’s why Lalas is still with us. He is someone that people have an opinion about rather than a person that people don’t think about.

    Just like the USMNT vs Jamaica’s B-Team in the Nations League semifinal in Austin. Greg & Gareth exchange brilliant strategies… …and are the laughingstocks of their respective sides of the Atlantic.

    So… 🤷‍♂️ This is for: 1) Practice for people in RTF. 2) Promoting the school. 3) Giving parents & alums to follow activities at the school. Who gives a shit if the ad is $15 or $1.50?
  13. < < DOINK !! > > Paredes 🇦🇷 banks his PK off the inside of the right post and it banked off to the left side and ARG couldn’t put the rebound in. Today is Paredes birthday.
  14. For those of us without FS2, the Canada 🇨🇦 v 🇨🇱 Chile match is on UniMas.

    The new LHN should show the top UT Club teams… Men’s Soccer Lacrosse Rugby Gymnastics Men’s Crew (Is there still a Women’s Crew club team?) …and stuff like that. They should also have student films and other shit coming out of the RTF school.

    There wasn’t any “home cooking”. Also, the USA isn’t “hosting” The Copa so much as the stadiums being used are located in the USA CONMEBOL is most definitely “hosting” this tournament. Can’t tell if you’re kidding or not. But just in case you’re not… The offsides call preceded Haverts yanking down #8. That means that the Havertz foul never happened… just like the goal didn’t happen. That’s how the rules of soccer work. /#mansplain

    This was just moments before Havertz yanked him to the ground by his shoulders and he was lining up a shot on goal. Bummer for the Danes.

    Euro 2024

    Ummm… the Premier League is a collection of skilled and unskilled English players along with most of the top talent from around the world due their TV deal. Italy is a collection of Italians (good and bad) plus bargains from around Europe (mostly the former communist countries) and a smattering from outside Europe, with the benefit of most Argentines, Brazilians, and Uruguayans being able to get an EU passport to count as a euro.
  19. This is the video that I always think of. Screaming “PUTO!” is just cultural in Mexico. Even in the upper middle classes.

    Euro 2024

    Why do you think USMNT players can play so well in that league? Italy should have given Gareth Southgate a winner‘s medal 🥇 for his role in reigning in his squad after taking the lead early in the final. With most managers, England ends up “coming home” (staying home) with the trophy. 🏆 But England had Southgate calling the shots and Italy was the beneficiary.
  21. Max Bretos was saying that Colombia was paying $1,100 for a $100 bet on them to win the whole thing about 4 or 5 days out. I told my gambling friend to hop on that a day or two before the tournament and it had dropped to $1,000 per $100 bet. Hopefully he went with it.
  22. Two managers who are Srgentines are being penalized for being tardy. 😳 Ummmm… “we” are ALWAYS late to shit. That’s why I felt at home from the day I landed.
  23. It would suck to be a tournament director for a tournament held the week before a major and watch players quit in the quarterfinals because they feel like they’ve gotten what they needed out of the tournament.
  24. I didn’t think that Mexico would make it out of their group and… …I felt that it was more likely that: A) The USMNT would not make it out of its group. …than… B) It would be for the USMNT to make it to the semifinal.
