  1. A few? More like a gross.
  2. Nah the field size is fine. In fact it's past due, we've needed this for ages and we settle it on the field. More football, even blowout football is great. The biggest issue was the way they pushed ahead the Top 4 conference champs instead of seeding based on ranking. You take the same 12 teams and seed them like this: Oregon - bye Georgia - bye Texas - bye PSU - bye Clemson at Notre Dame ASU at tOSU SMU at Tenn Boise St at Indiana You might have first round blowouts, but the field is a lot more even at the Quarters and Semis. The biggest issues with the actual bracket is how out uneven it is even the next round. The best two teams (Oregon and Georgia) arguably have the hardest games.
  3. Couldn’t tell you, I never heard about them again.
  4. Yeah, I don't agree with this. Donald is all about his image and perception. He wants to be seen as a great man/leader/president/etc. He doesn't know how to do it, but that's what he wants. More of this. This is what drives DJT. And this is where Elon is a thorn in his side - he steals his thunder and that is something DJT won't suffer. If Elon is seen as pulling the strings, Trump will eject him faster than you can jump up and "make" and X logo. This is where men like Thiel and guys that really know how to stroke Trump's ego will control the situation - they will truly whisper all this shit in Donald's ear and poison their relationship.
  5. Pulisic: 'Crazy' to say USMNT players behind Berhalter's return https://prosoccerwire.usatoday.com/story/sports/usmnt/2024/12/19/pulisic-crazy-usmnt-players-behind-berhalter-return/77086779007/# I love Pulisic, but the guy really is missing the point or he is now trying to deflect. The USSF very much took support of berhalter into the equation when deciding to bring him back. I get the players didn’t demand his return. But come on man.
  6. How is he owned by Musk? He got away with crimes. He thinks he bulletproof. Like I said,I fail to see what Elon really provides. He’s about to be the president god sakes.
  7. This. What does Trump need Musk for? He can't run again, he's a lame duck already. I just don't see why Trump would want Elon around when he's only stealing his thunder.
  8. About the only good thing to come from this. But ask the MLS how their season went. Seemed pretty short sighted to jump for the cash to go streaming only.
  9. BTW - the match calendar for 2025 is like this: Jan 18-25 - Camp Cupcake, Friendlies - Venezuela & Costa Rica March 17-25 - Nations League Semis and Final June 2-10 - Friendlies Junw 14 - July 6 - Gold Cup Sept 1-9 - Friendlies Oct 6-14 - Friendlies Nov 10-18 - Friendlies
  10. It was fucking pathetic. Our game plan against Uruguay was an abject disaster. We did't do anything of note against them to make them worry about losing. When you look at the stats for the game, you can see that Gregg wasn't playing to win the game. Man, he fucking sucked. https://xgscore.io/copa-america/usa-uruguay/xg-statistics
  11. I have the weirdest boner right now.
  12. Now 2-0. Hopefully cruise. I assume the draw is right after this.
  13. NM Man, stupid FIFA - not the World Cup the CLUB World Cup.
  14. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck https://www.themirror.com/sport/soccer/mauricio-pochettino-injury-blow-usmnt-862052 Balogun goes under the knife - out until April.
  15. VS
  16. Weah dinged up and out until the new year. Hamstring. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6003359/2024/12/18/tim-weah-injury-usmnt-juventus/
  17. The law does not apply to Elon Musk sadly, this is closer to the truth here.
  18. Did he really post that again?
  19. Fuck, I might have to get something for that. Vermont is my adopted 3rd state (maybe 4th). Gonna have to represent.
  20. This is the model the team has used for years. This isn't anything new. The goal is always find diamonds in the rough on the cheap and cut them to be stars and hoping to sell them much later for big profits. Frankly, I don't think that the issue is totally with Ange, but more the fact that we have been dinged up so bad with injuries, illness and suspensions. You give him our #1 team and I think we are a bit higher in the table than 10th right now. Sure, depth solves that too, but we have been hit pretty damn hard. Also on Mickey - sounds like we won't see him until 2025.
  21. Artwork.
