Re: EPL 2020/21
You know, the one modern goalie thing I do wonder about is punching the ball. I swear goalies do this way more than they used it. A lot of EPL goals seem to be scored on rebounds after a goalie blocks or punches a ball right into the box. I always wonder why it seems prefered to block a shot out in...

Re: EPL 2020/21
The DOGSO rules were solidified what, 5-7 years ago? Seems like the current technique is to stem the chance of 'keepers getting red cards if they go bat-out-of-hell at the attackers knees. Sure, but I see a lot of clumsy challenges now because guys basically start to get rounded and the keeper has ...

I love Emrick.
Another reason I'm happy I don't hang out on Twitter, where I assume he receives criticism? Katie Nolan drafted him as one of her all time favorite voices on All Fantasy Everything recently. Not sure I'd put him in Vin Scully range, but I love listening to him call a game.

Yeah, one of the frustrating things about watching and trying to track Pulisic is at least half the squad has the same hair cut, build, and running gait.

Chelsea's defense is ridiculous. Watched the game to see how Pulisic looked (pretty good), and got to see all 3 Saints goals come from some level of defensive bullshit.
Entertaining, if nothing else.
