It looked to me like Gio and Pulisic hustled back to stop counter attacks after losing the ball. Pulisic is usually a whiney pain in the butt when he gets fouled (or thinks he should get a call). I did not see that much of that. Also fascinating post-game commentary about the US players knowing Mex...

I mean... There are lots of ways to get into B'more that have nothing to do with that bridge. I've driven north thru Baltimore (and back) hundreds of times and I've only been on that bridge a few dozen times. Sure, but I’m guessing those other roads will be much busier now. I just can’t imagine the...

Yeah, a few of those are just generally popular videos that a lot of people watch. The carpet cleaning ones crack me up. "A customer brought this dirty rug in and we made it like new." And it's like a completely black rug just caked like it was stored at the bottom of a pond for a couple ...

Great. My wife hates bridges, now she's got this to point to.

Alright, let me throw a curveball at you guys. The good... Our new doggo is 7 months old. She is an absolutely adorable dog. She's pretty well-behaved, isn't super food forward (somewhat rare for a Golden) and does funny shit like try to carry 2-3 toys in her mouth at once. My wife, who is one of th...

Politics is so full of people that have a public persona that has nothing to do with who they are behind closed doors that this topic is somewhat triggering.*

Gio really deep. Opposite McKennie but deeper. I don't like it. Pulisic mostly invisible Yeah, we need Reyna higher in a 10 role. While I mostly agree, the way they were having the outside backs push really high necessitated a bit more of conservative play from the central guys. That just wasn't ha...

That was one of the most improbable (and best) goals I've seen in this rivalry. Benny Feilhaber's goal in the Gold Cup was similar.

Nonlinear FC

It's also jarring because he signed a contract extension through end of next season and so much of the hype around him was how well he was doing and, like you said, that he was a leader for the club.

M hires FAU's Day as new HC. General consensus is they were able to get The Guy in terms of available candidates and they beat out L'ville (reportedly) to do so. Lots of folks calling for Warde Manuel's (AD) head in recent months... Methinks that clammer will die down for awhile. (This is the same f...

I don't really know. He had an injury that he dealt with in January, came back and seemed fine, but then he hasn't really played in a month. No news of an injury and he seemed fine in the US camp.

So, yep, that was one of the things I left out last night: * Balogun is GGG's guy. I kind of get wanting him to play and he was OK at times. But he's not in form for his club, while guys like Sargent-->Wright and Pepi are... So, while I wasn't too annoyed with the starting XI, I did have an issue wi...

The reason he has to go to the Saudis and the Russians for financing is that every bank in America knows he's a shitty businessman, and doing business with him is just setting money on fire. I'd really be curious who would want his shares as collateral when they're in reality worth less than Monopo...

FAU-NW... they must've figured something out... 58-56 FAU with about 1:20 left in the game. Timeout, NW with possession.

I remember getting moved up from JV to V as a freshman in baseball. Got to play RF in a blowout playoff loss, but hit one of only 4 dingers in my entire "career" to avoid the mercy in the 5th. Weird feeling. I also got moved up to V in soccer my sophomore year as a field player, which I st...

Nonlinear FC

Absolutely agree. My buddy had read that Bournemouth asked GGG not to play him 90, and that's totally understandable. But burning 2 subs there is just really really dumb.

Nonlinear FC

Sure, yeah... But that wasn't part of the analysis, unless I missed it.

But, yeah, overall... thinking about it after I posted... It's not like this is some journeyman rando... It really does have the Jordan vibe, but with actual wire transfer proof/details.

I've decided that what inarguably should have been a loss to a Jamaica team missing more key players than we were plus a decisive loss to Mexico is actually our best path to a new coach. Lose to Jamaica and it can be called a fluke, 3rd place match means nothing because guys will be checked out. Th...

Analysis: If this were the case it would be the biggest baseball scandal since the Black Sox, right? Ohtani would not only be in criminal jeopardy for illegal gambling but he’d probably face a permanent ban from the game. It’d be absolutely massive and would upend professional sports for a very, ve...

Nonlinear FC

Just to clarify or hone in... When you know Jamaica is going to play a low block, going 442 with the amount of talent sitting on the bench was hard-headed.

1) Anyone who watched that game and still doesn't understand the value and importance of Gio... We're just not ever going to agree on player evaluations. The guy is just different in the attacking 3rd. I'm not real happy with his antics on D, but frankly, at this point... I'll put up with that to ha...

That's really dumb. They make us take what is basically the same 3 or so training courses every year. I don't need to read the text or watch the videos. One is on cybersecurity. I used to work for a cybersecurity firm. I don't need to keep reading the same shit over and over. If they made me do that...

So, folks are convinced Ohtani was gambling illegally (offshore or otherwise) and dismissing the possibility that the translator had a problem and was gambling the money away and then either Ohtani bailed him out OR Ohtani didn't know the money was being pilfered? Is the thinking that the pilfering ...

1) I was very down on the Caps early on. Addition by subtraction and now they are playing a very solid style. I hate to say this, but Backstrom being out was already a net positive, and then you have Oshie out for extended amounts of time, which is allowing the young guys (many of whom played on the...

My apologies to everyone who had to watch or even read about that mess. For some reason this particular uva team would occasionally show up to games with no interest in playing hard in offense.

I think that there's a very high likelihood that the fact that the core of the youth movement on the MNT knew him and liked him played a role in him getting on the roster.

I mean, I don't think you can put the fact that he was part of the national youth team pool that included CP as him riding coat tails or whatever. He was, by many accounts, a true stud back then. Looking at his size, I suspect he got by on athleticism, and is just in the last few years putting it to...

Not for nothing, but Aaronson scored what turned into the game winner for Union Berlin. And while it was only the extended highlights, the announcer said multiple times he was the best player on the field. So... he's got that going for him... which is nice.
