Re: All threads are temporary. This one's about soccer.

I am watching the FA Cup this morning, from Sutton United from the umpteenth division. For anyone else watching, is this a turf field? Can they play on turf in the lower leagues? If this is real grass, it's immaculate. How does every podunk team have a better surface than half the NFL?

Re: 2017 NFC playoffs

Eli's fine. He's had a bad season but that won't matter at all with a few wins here. He was the true league MVP in the 2011 season, and I feel sorry for anyone who does not realize that.

Re: 2017 NFC playoffs

Eli has has a poor season--his arm strength appears to be down, and he's throwing away a lot of balls early to avoid sacks. Arguably the last part is not a negative, but it's not a positive either, and it affects the statistical picture. (Side note: Eli was sacked fewer times than any other QB with ...

Re: 2017 NFC playoffs

The Giants have reverted to a sort of 1970s style ball which I think would work better at home than on the road. There aren't many examples of defense-only teams that make a run without at least some home field advantage. But who better to MAGA than Eli. They're kind of like the 2011 Niners, with an...
