They could do a documentary on the Bosman ruling and how it changed transfers and affected teams like Ajax and their 95 side. Cameroon 90 is a good shout they set the stage for many other African countries even though the quarters have been the plateau thus far. The Guardian had a good account of the wild 94 qualifiers before Europe seeded teams when England failed to qualify, France lost to Bulgaria last minute.

:whoa: we all love bantz but i don't really see how you can blame liverpool fans en masse for hillsborough

they do ignore heysel and like many have said, a campaign against crowd mismanagement and crowd violence in world football would come off as less self-serving, but that doesn't mean that hillsborough shyt wasnt fukked up
no one is saying it isnt fukked up what happened at Hillsborough. only a savage would.

But lets not make this the worst tragedy in man kind like Liverpool fans want us to think it is.

That Pirlo autobiography "I think therefore i play" has some funny quotes.This dude was just willing to listen to any offers Capello told him he had Emmerson playing next to him, and his agent was arranging a Real transfer and he was already dreaming about what he would eat and how he would look in the jersey. He also talks about willing to go to Barca though Galliani and Berlusconi stopped the transfers. Also shyts on Huntelaar when he said Milan told him they would be buying him to entice him to stay.

people on twitter were saying this feels like NHL's expansion into the south. nashvilla, atlanta, that kinda thing.

and that the peak of the league will be 2011-2014, which is pretty interesting to think about tbh

someone in my office keeps throwing away the kitchen sponge when there is no replacement. It pisses me off each time it happens. :upsetfavre:
so what if a couple trains got bombed in london tho :yeshrug:
thats the attitude a lot of them have.

I know about the coverup, I know they should not be blamed entirely, etc. But miss me with the "its worst than slavery" shyt.:camby:

Ramsey should get a percentage of Wenger, Giroud, Ozil, and Arteta's pay. He's becoming what Gerrard was suppose to be. Theo was a big injury but Ramsey going completely disrupted us, exposed a few our players and killed others. Perfect foil for many guys in the team.

If we get some more pace and a midfielder who can run faster than granny's scooter and pass more vertically, to play alongside him, :whoo: They thought the chosen one was Jack :mjlol:

This dude peaked at the Barcelona first leg. England overrated their young players before their proper development. Ramsey is eating well being welsh.

All good topics, ESPN drop the ball mostly on the soccer stories. They could gave the people a good education of football history. Instead, they have too many stories that have a political twist.

Atlanta and Miami are the two worst places to put a MLS team in the south. No beef just the truth. Preferred to put a team in Charlotte and San Antonio/Austin. Or the most passionate and rabid hooligans in the South, New Orleans.

I've been thinking and seeing coverage about Colbert taking over for Letterman. I haven't watched late night talk shows in years and not even Colbert can get me to watch them. I do feel like the internet love for Jon Stewart and Colbert is very overstated.

I mean I have watched the Daily Show and the Colbert Report and they are funny but people trumpet them like they're some vital organ for American democracy and politics which is a bit absurd. And I don't think they think they are, it's mostly the internets and the fans of the show. I think Bill Maher thinks he is. But I hate Bill Maher so that's another post, another day.
