  1. Hire some Frenchman and tell him you're digging a wine cellar. This would have been done before "Greg Davis is not our standard" became a FAA accepted call sign.
  2. Hits real close to home. Dad had a stroke,massive one, right in front of me less than a year ago. Thankfully, we were in the hospital anyways. Truly saved his life. Went from the most brilliant man I've ever known, the reason I went into engineering, to a shell of that in minutes. Shit is no joke. Sympathies for anyone going through it.

    Two baguettes, a croque madam, and a $20 gift card to Best Buy should do the trick.

    I mean... She does have a point - Gregg assaults girlfriend, never sees the light of day, he becomes USMNT head coach. Gio acts like an entitled 18 year old (because he's, you know, 18), he gets dragged through the mud, setting his national team career back and surely decreasing his transfer value. Doesn't seem quite fair. I'm also confident she knew damn well what the protocols were around reported abuse and that this would lead to an investigation without being explicit about anything. Whatever. I'm here for the drama because ultimately, fuck GGG.

    Gotta be Tab Ramos for now, right? And then we do our normal year long coaching search nonsense.
  6. Gotta triple that assist total to be like his old man! Cool to see though - hopefully he wrecks shop at UTA.
  7. The whole "team" concept in F1 is so fabricated. It should be garage vs garage. You go out there to race to win and that's the end of it. Fuck everyone else even if they're the same silver arrow or scuderia red as you - you're there to win. That's how it should be, IMO. That's probably what the drivers want, too.

    We were a complete clown show. Our tactics were exactly what LVG expected and he exploited our tendencies (aggressive wings and fullbacks) and baited us into our weaknesses (crosses to no one) which played into their strength (giant fucking CBs that are world class). All that to put his attacking players in a position succeed (counters up defenseless, over extended wings) against our weakest position (center backs). Gregg's quote that was basically "we were the better team, they had one chance and scored on their one chance" was so braindead. It's baffling he didn't see how horribly he was being played. That, of course, was confirmed by LVG's post game quote saying the US never made any adjustments. LVG made us look like that Gatorade commercial where Trevor Lawrence is playing football with a bunch of middle schoolers. He's just having fun, letting them think they're all on a level playing field. Completely outclassed. That game underscored how meaningless percent of possession can be.
  9. An ignore button.
  10. You gave up 34 points to Gardner fucking MinimumChew and some of you are complaining about an offense that put up 40 points in the NFL? This is why Santa doesn't give Cowboy fans any presents.
  11. How about we not be racist dickheads to our own players? Or are we really that similar to A&M?
  12. It makes sense, he's a grad transfer from BYU - the average age for that is like, 54.
  13. Naming him Bo seems to have worked out for them.
  14. Witnessed my 3rd hole in one a few days ago - #2 at Great Hills (one of my own + two others). 128 yards, 54 degree, tight draw, land, spin left - boom. First one ever for this dude and then he proceeded to shoot a 32 on that 9. Was fun to watch! Best of all, we're playing $1/point Las Vegas and he's on my team. I par the hole so we score a 13. Other team goes 3 + 5 but birdie flips the digits and eagle doubles so they get a 106. Netted $93 on just that hole plus all the free drinks after. Shot a 91 on the day and did not give a fuck.
  15. Bit of a cop out - conveniently the most used criteria is OWGR top 50 and that's not gonna help the LIV dildos unless you're Cameron Smith. Not that I'm complaining one iota.
  16. Seb was great for this on his way out. Lewis is the only one now I think. Regardless of sport, no one will stand up to the ME countries and their deep pockets.
  17. That is the best real life example of "I get older, they stay the saaaaaame age" that I have ever seen.

    We're the program that thought it was a good idea to hold off on hiring a new coach for 9 months and let an interim coach try to guide us through WCQ. This wasn't a situation where we were blindsided by a 4am arrest because said coach strangled a family member - no, we knew this firing was coming, we knew this coach was underperforming, we knew he was not a good culture fit, and even still, our best course of attack was to have an interim coach for 9 months??? I have zero faith this program will ever do the right thing for the USMNT - they are merely after doing what's best for them individually, much like FIFA in general. The same mindset for how we ended up in a shithole like Qatar in the first place is the same mindset that led us to Gregg and will keep us there.

    Squarely on Team Gio if for no other reason than I believe him when he says he's going to work on becoming a better person (which just naturally comes when you're no longer a 19 year old male) vs believing Gregg is going to change one iota.
  20. Given how important recruiting is to college basketball, Ivey feels like a stretch. There are so few realistic names that are actually exciting. Musselman, if you can call that realistic, is the closest.
  21. They're waiting for the Bonobos sale to drop next week to refresh their wardrobe. Beard just timed it poorly.
  22. Surely he is arraigned today and out on bond. Given we have a game tonight, there has to be a statement made by either him or the University well before that. It's not like he can just show up and coach today as if nothing happened.

    GGG is talking about himself. Right?
