Lonergan fired from GW on Saturday. Good job by GW announcing this over the weekend. Smart PR. GW won the NIT last year. Goes back to the issue linked above (player abuse and calling the AD names). Lonergan says they did not follow process. https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/colleges/mike-lonerga...

(And it's may be Travis Ford, but is probably Kyle Macy.)

Yeah I caught that mistake in the 2nd part of the sentence and fixed it but missed the first one.

W.P. Kinsella, author of Shoeless Joe (Field of Dreams) passes. I read.the Iowa Baseball Confederacy and was not so blown away. Too weird and less heart than Shoeless Joe.

Well. Yeah. But because it's a tracking stock. Not because trey are building tracks. Tracking stocks are kinda weird.

so went to the US v. Finland game. US came out fast and playing hard and then just coasted in the 2nd and 3rd. Did not get exciting again until Finland scored 2 late in the 3rd period (and the US had to kill off a 6-4 the last 2:00 of the game). This was not the same intensity as the US v. Canada wa...

Just doing my NFL pickems for Week 2. How can Washington be 3.5 point favorites over the Cowboys. I get the 3 points for being the home team, but there will be lots of cowboy fans in the stands. Is the thought that Dallas can't throw deep?

So wait, Canada and the us have their own teams, but here is also a North America team? As well as a Europe team from countries that couldn't field a full team? Wtf? I understand the Team Europe concept, but what is the deal with Team NA? Is it just a youth team comprised of US and Canada players? ...

The 96 event was really fun. I vividly remember where I was watching the final (college party). Everyone was huddled around the TV cheering for the US. A good US showing could bring some attention.

was a good 'friendly'. This tournament is going to fun. The US was very physical for a friendly against Canada.

I agree we are missing out on young players who are just not in the club situation, but not as bad as we used. US Soccer and a number of other organizations are trying to foster relationships in that group. Folks like Gideon Z and Andy Najar would fall into that category. I agree the drive is a big ...
