  1. What a kick in the balls that was. A couple thoughts. Soccer can be so cruel, and exhilarating at the same time. Neuer was outstanding, and then he wasn’t. If he catches that ball and falls to the ground and wastes about a minute that game is probably much different. The strange bounce made it hit him differently than normal. Pete, the German cousin’s boy who played D1 goalie, and I said the same thing to each other at the same time as the bounce. The defender also did not do a good job as he let the Madrid player get to the rebound. The offside call, I don’t know what I think other than they should have let it play out and that is the reason there is VAR. It was used to confirm the Madrid goal and I think the review should have been used for Bayern. I’m not sure if that arm by the Madrid player counts as his body being in line with the Bayern player. The substitutions by Bayern were bad. I have never thought that you should sit back and let a Spanish team maintain possession and attack, no matter how much time is on the clock. Bayern blew it. They had it and let it go. Much credit to Madrid for doing what they do so well. It is funny how my German family hates Bayern 99% of the time until Champions League comes around. Mike, who made his debut against Bayern, and hates them more than most, said that offside call would have made him “lose his shit”. And he added, “that’s why there is VAR”. The dog is Bayern. The ball is the Champions League final at Wembley.
  2. I might have to wear my Dortmund shirt next week for my flight to Frankfurt!
  3. PSG with a few cheap shots here in this half.
  4. Does PSG at some point pull the goalie?
  5. I must say this guy announcing on Univision is extremely excitable
  6. You ask that as if it’s a bad thing.
  7. Oh, I wasn't saying you'd be at the club with your autograph notebook. I was just jaggin' around. 😏
  8. Game was in Dortmund, would have been Liters. 😉🍻
  9. I guess it was about five, or six, years ago. The same weekend of Monaco. For over a decade I have been going to the beach in St. Tropez with my German cousin and her family and on our beach are the two fancy-pants clubs, Moorea and Club 55, and someone said the night of the race that some of the drivers were going to be over at Moorea and did I want to go. I passed. My reply was that once they step out of the cars I don’t really care much about them.
  10. THat's what I thought. I will have to watch in Spanish.
  11. Am I correct that the only broadcast for today is on Univision? Everything else is streaming?
  12. They HAD perfectly good uniforms. The ones they wore in the national championship game against Notre Dame were very nice. They have continually gotten worse. I'm not a fan of these. A couple good friends of mine played for WVU and they both hate the uniforms.
  13. Oh, oh, oh. I thought maybe she was in one of those silly Bad Family Photo type things. Never before saw that commercial.
  14. I thought it was interesting that every car that finished was on the lead lap. I’m guessing of course the Safety Car had something to do with that but, I think for most of the race the field was all on the lead lap.
  15. Humble Brag 👆 My post-race activity was cutting the grass.
