QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 13, 2014 -> 02:23 PM) On Marquez....guess they missed it or called it inadvertent? I still have no idea what the call was on that corner kick where the possible 2nd goal could have been scored in the first half for Mexico...the first disallowed one was THIS close but a correct offsides call. Neither one of these teams were very impressive, although the weather conditions were obviously terrible. Cameroon has Samuel Eto'o and that's about it in terms of firepower. Pretty nice play by the Mexican keeper on that deep header attempt at the left corner. I can only guess that the linesman thought it deflected off of a Mexican player. The only way Ochoa doesnt make that save at the end is if his foot slips out from underneath him. Wasnt much power behind that header.

If Cameroon doesnt finish with a -6 or more GD I'll be shocked. Croatia and Brazil are going to have field days against that backline.

Blatter mentioned he'd like to see challenges. Well how about reviews of all fouls/hand balls that result in penalties inside the box. If the ref calls a foul/hand ball inside the box on the defending team, the ref looks at a replay or someone from the press box does to confirm there was a legit foul, not a dive. But only for plays that are whistled by the ref. If there is a play that results in what appears to be a foul but the ref doesnt call it then no review and the game just continues.

maybe he meant Spurs in 5 and auto correct changed it to Heat.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 12, 2014 -> 11:04 PM) Heat should ditch Wade for Melo. Melo will be in Miami when James leaves

Heat in 5 lol

QUOTE (Ozzie Ball @ Jun 12, 2014 -> 06:47 PM) Croatia were very unlucky. Neymar should have been sent off for his elbow... looked straight at (I think it was Modric), raised his elbow and slammed it into the side of his head. Easy red card. Then Neymar scores 2 minutes later. BS penatly decision. Foul against Croatia for the challenge on the GK. Even will all that if Pletikosa had even a half decent game it could have finished 1-1. totally disagree. And it looked more of a forearm.

Game has been ruined by this dumbass ref.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 11, 2014 -> 11:45 PM) Bad bet, in his his last 12 elimination games, Lundqvist has given up more than one goal just 3 times. Plus, Rangers were due for some puck luck. only a bad bet b/c it lost. I took the wager just after the 3rd started. LA owned the play and put up 15 shots, just couldnt find a goal. The third played out exactly how I thought it would. On Friday the LA team total will be at 2.5 and elimination game or not, I would take the Kings to score 3 to clinch.

lost my Kings in-game team total over 1.5 and in-game over 4.5 because of that snow on the goal line. sickening

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 8, 2014 -> 09:12 PM) Australia is so f***ed. They have 3 damn good teams in their group who may need to pad their goal differential to advance. They could lose each game 5-0. there are some deep groups this year, that's for sure.

Manny Machado acted like a little b**** this weekend.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jun 7, 2014 -> 05:18 PM) Not sure why the US scheduled today's game to start at 6pm ET. The biggest sporting event of the day is a potential Triple Crown winner, and you schedule right against it? There's been nothing on worth watching so far this afternoon, should have started the game at 3 or 4pm ET. Well when it was scheduled there wasnt a horse going for the Triple Crown. Plus they leave tomorrow so I doubt they wanted a late game or a game in the middle of a hot, humid day in Florida. Pretty strong performance today, too bad we couldn't keep the clean sheet.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 11:38 PM) He's certainly milking the s*** out of it. Sucks this happened, but the loss of Lebron is negated by the umpteen unforced to's committed by the Spurs. Still, a very entertaining game. I was thinking the same thing. Heat fans will say Lebron going out was the reason they lost but if SA cuts their turnovers in half they win.

Sad news. RIP

There's only two things I hate in this world. People who are intolerant of other people's cultures and the Dutch.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jun 3, 2014 -> 11:15 AM) An Edmonton board with a bunch of seventeen year old spoiled Canadians who don't even know what a winning team looks like and I'd wager most have never seen Gretzky play (or if they did, it was probably as a NYR) or weren't around for their glory days in the 80s, sans a few? Hmm.. Yea that still might be better than this thread since they still do know hockey. There are sub forums to every nhl team and other topics on that site

QUOTE (danman31 @ Jun 1, 2014 -> 04:40 PM) I don't see the US getting out of their group either. Could easily see them taking last in the group. could easily happen if Klinsmann doesnt scrap the stupid 4-4-2 diamond. He wanted to put Davis and Zusi on the squad because theyre good at crossing but he bunches them up in the middle. Of course neither is great at their defensive responsibilities so we're even more exposed when the LB/RB push up. No creativity either in the midfield. It's too bad there isnt someone who could be creative that was left off the squad. And Green? lol, GTFO with that selection. He has no business playing on the US team, let alone a WC team right now. Just isnt ready. No doubt in my mind that he was promised a spot when he declared. We're two weeks from the first match and Jurgen is still trying to feel out what works with this roster. Are you kidding me?? I'm starting to get the feel of 2006 all over again.

Ghana has gone 10 straight matches scoring 1 or less goals.

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ May 31, 2014 -> 02:16 PM) completely agree. cant stand david ortiz. and it makes me angry that he was linked to steroids and completely got a free pass just becuase its david ortiz and people love him He talks about respect and having 500 career home runs and people just totally disregard him being linked to PEDs. Just look at his numbers before arriving in Boston. But he smiles a lot so he's cool.

QUOTE (Greyone @ May 29, 2014 -> 08:06 PM) Anybody think Ballmer would move them to Seattle. The Seattle Clippers doesn't sound too bad. I would assume after spending $2B, Ballmer wouldnt move his team from the LA market to the Seattle market.
