My friend in London loves taking his family to American football games when they come to town.

None of the gang violence, drunkenness, and riots that have broken out when he took them to soccer games.
American football is a family affair over there and the Wembley games have been sold out.

Plus you never see anyone faking injuries like this.


The world cup was almost unbearable to watch with all this drama.

Haha that video is awesome goatboy.

Jingy, they will probably say it's a disease just like being addicted to sex. Beating a woman is about as low as you can go.

In WC '98 France decriminalized the weed. The result was a total love fest with no hooligans. The Dutch don't have much hooliganism so they just put 2 and 2 together.

Spending all my time catching up on the Champions League games taking place this week.

Some fantastic games played so far.

Bloody Gooners. Somebody needs to tell Wenger that 'defense' is spelled
the same in French. Oh, and by the way, it doesn't hurt to mark that runty
midget for Man U.

At least they don't have the Reds' probs, eh? They're gonna be fighting
relegation if their current streak keeps up.

Yeah, wouldn't that be crazy if they were relegated. Sucks that Rodgers will most likely be gone after this year management should fire themselves.

My team is beat up. Lahm, Alaba, Bastian, Martinez, thiago, etc. Still winning though.

Messing with my connection this morning..
Was not able to catch too much (read any) of the Chelsae match... most of the Liverpool was scary and I don't want to think about what Liverpool will do to recover their place. I dread the idea of not seeing Liverpool on game day.
Tottenham vs Hull City - Don't know why but Christian Eriksen seems to be picking up right where Bale left off. If only there were the explosive bursts of speed that Bale was able to pull off that got the fans out of their seats. Gonna be fun to watch this guys career.
I always have a soft spot for the spurs...watching the team with Luka Modric, Benoît Assou-Ekotto and Bale that was like watching a grounded cirque du soleil performance. Something special, to be sure.
Man U vs. Arenal - Watch out for the Di Maria/Rooney combo for many goals going forward... but then again... Di Maria and anybody will be fun to watch.
Haven't seen the others at this time...

Cheers all

Who thinks Alexis Sanchez is building a "Greatest Player" resume in the EPL and UEFA Champions League?

If you like stats, this is the craziest site there is. Teams, players, formations. It's got it all.

Jingy, I don't think Alexis is even top ten in the world. Could be top ten in EPL, but probably not even top five.

Edit: Well I just checked out his stats in the above link and he has 41% of his team's league goals. That's pretty f*#king good. He has the third most league goals behind Aguero and Costa.

Liverpool is doing pretty bad this year, but Dortmund is the bottom of Bundesliga. It will be interesting who gets Marco Reus this summer. That guy is fun to watch.

Well this just in, what did you think of this weekend's games?

Thanks for asking. Firstly, Messi who? Ronaldo breaks the la liga hat trick record and fastest to 200 goals in 178 la liga games. Oh and his bicycle kick was even better than any of his goals yesterday. Real is the most fun team to watch this year. Pure attack.

Chelsea finally lose an EPL game. Arsenal tried to come back from three first half goals. Liverpool was Liverpool. Man City win on a questionable pk and West Ham still playing good.

Bayern beat third place Leverkusen and remain unbeaten in Bundesliga.

Ibra.

^^^ Three hat tricks in 4 games? Are you kidding me?

Turned on the MLS title game with 70 minutes gone. Usually watch it every
few years. After this one it might be a longer wait until the next one.
What is sad is that these are the two best teams? LOL! Pretty good for
English 2nd Division. OK, lower 1st Division, very lower. After Donovan's
pass to Keane was called offside, wrongly, it was like the Galaxy gave up.
Their defense on the NE goal was laughable. And don't get me started on
their goalie.

Start of the last OT session. I'm going to watch it for reasons I can't
adequately admit to here.

edit:
Memo to NE: You might want to consider at least keeping an eye on that
Keane bloke. Fooking pathetic defense!

Three tricks in four games and still 10 behind Ronaldo. I prefer the way Messi plays, how he doesn't dive and act like Ronaldo, but the fact is CR7 is better.

Neither are Zlatan though!

In bigger news, our coed team won today and are still top of the table. Big news.
