Hey, it’s better than being a creeper.

When you sell VVD to Liverpool for 75mil and they still can't defend...

The goalkeeper from Man City has an abhorrent tattoo on his neck.

Juve scores two early goals, stops playing. Bold strategy.

Wigan!

I supposed this is where this should go:

Riverhounds updated their logo (and kits) and it's awesome.

I dig it.

Postby **count2infinity** » Tue Feb 20, 2018 3:54 pm

Also, I dig Wigan knocking Man City out of the FA cup.

That blue jersey is pretty sweet

In case there are any Philadelphia Union fans here: the player who was signed today - Borek Dockal (on loan from China for 1 year) - was supposed to be the "next Czech big thing" (think "Rosicky"). Last year, one Chinese team paid something like $12 mil for him to Sparta Prague (and paid the player something like $7 mil per year for the 3-year contract). Apparently, he really could not adjust to living in China - thus the MLS jump...

Any chance since Pulisic’s dad is helping coach the hounds that Chris will be around often?

Wow. What a save by De Gea.

Spiritfan still has an Astro pitch, several kits, some stands, and misc extras... had the indoor pitch but got moldy... stuff is available on eBay and Amazon... a simple game for a simpler time

That's a bonkers story, holy crap.

The Davide Astori passing is pretty damn sad. He seemed like a really good guy and teammate.

Postby **Gaucho** » Sun Mar 04, 2018 1:20 pm

The passing of Arsenal Football Club is sad, too.

I just heard about this and finally realized why every singe game in Italy was postponed today. Terrible.

31 is insanely sad

A teammate of mine once did that. I'm not shitting you.

What a goal by Eric Bailly. Wonderful touch,
