Those Olympic style stadia with tracks are just awful. Not NY Yankee stadium awful, but almost.

Jesus. Forbes just released the finances.
That's a nice return. The risk in 2007 was high though that the MLS owners cabal was going to lose everything.
Not coincidentally, 2007 is the year the league took the risk by signing Beckham which was the start of the growth.
Make sure to call the people in curva Nord honkey cracker wops. Nothing personal or racist- they're just inferior humans.
I don't get why another bay area team, esp in Sacramento, is more desirable then San Diego. The initial responses against SD was all the people from Mexico coming over to watch. What you don't like paying fans coming to watch?
I look at San Diego some what like St. Louis. They will be a no brainer if and when they solve their basic issues but until that time I don't think they will enter the picture.
It is going to be near impossible convincing owners who are spending over a half billion to start a team to accept pro reg, even twenty years from now.
True. But if all the teams have spent the money and built the stadiums it may make it easier. I'm not talking about letting in USL or lower division teams who dont have the $$ or the stadiums.
I could see something like the following, with still a very very low possibility, maybe being considered after expansion is complete:
Wait, what?
Makes too much sense but you are prob right it won't happen.NewlyRetired said:
Philly is to NYC in terms of distance and culture as Sacramento is to the Bay Area. Maybe going for NCal here?
Oh sure, you east coasters understand there is a difference between Sac and San Jose but don't understand that Southern CA actually extends south of LA.....
I grew up in the Bay area and dreaded games in Sac.
It was fun for me?
Perhaps you failed to notice that these are ALL LIVERPOOL PLAYERS involved in the training exercise.
Oh...wasn't busting balls, just making sure that was the link. Imo, 5v2 or 3v1 at tempo is the best thing around for teaching/learning understanding about quick movement and ball skills. Not used to seeing 1 guy doing all the movement like the link- usually really fluid with the 5 guys all moving. Wonder what the intent was with that?It was fun for me?
This is what I talk to my kid about all the time, so maybe it's on my mind?
I thought it was great for showing how one guy constantly being available opens everything up.
Ok. But that only means the defenders are letting it happen and not really defending against that guy... Which I guess could support that idea, in only from that one player's perspective.
I was there, too.
Small world!
Noice. Bummer, we could havemet. I had no idea you were there. I walked past that bar, instead meeting my colleague at Trent House on the Leazes side.I was there, too.
I think they just hate Ashley so much that anything that happens will be blamed solely on him, but fans do love Rafa and his departure came at a terrible time. Plus he replacement is just meh.
Was really fun, though and my first EPL game. Went to the Strawberry across the way beforehand which was crazy town. The reception Carrol got when he came on was cool and afterwards, I got some pics of Joelinton giving his shirt to a kid:
Warning- some pics contain topless Brazilian
Posting from my hotel bar in Dublin now. G/F is napping. Just kind of resting after a whirlwind week and will properly explore the city the next two days.
G/F had a conference in Glasgow so we made a trip out of it. Met her there, and planned on going to Ireland, too. Then I got hooked on soccer so I decided to see if there were any games in the EPL I could go to, and Newcastle was the only one that kind of fit geographically and decided this is my EPL team now. So, took the train down from Glasgow Friday, flew to Dublin today.
