    Champions League

    I only listened to the game, but I caught the highlights on youtube, and based on that I would agree with all those points. 1. I don't think Gerrard choked either, he could have scored, but it worked out that it was a tough angle, although I have seen Rooney put that away multiple...

    Chelsea Wins FA cup in Injury Time

    Yeah, Wembley did look great even though it took about 10 times the length they said it would take. I really hope to get out there for next years FA cup final, and maybe my Hammers can be in it! I also agree that it was an unbeliveably boring game, although the fact that it was kept...

    Kissing the Queen's Royal @$$

    Yeah, I guess we will. I agree that she does have influence on people, but she just doesn't seem bright enough to really do anything like this. I watched her and President Bush's speeches yesterday on TV, and while Bush didn't say much (does he ever?), she said nothing. Literally every...

    Kissing the Queen's Royal @$$

    Yeah, I agree with Bear-Arms, the guy thinks the US gov brainwashed the VT killer into doing this so they could take away our guns. Sure its possible, but come on. And with regard to the queen, I don't know what else to say. What pretty much everyone else said is completely right, she...

    Kissing the Queen's Royal @$$

    Come on guys. I was born and raised in England, and our monarchy is just a source of national pride, and very little else. There is very little they can do that will affect anyone else in England, much less around the world. Do you really think her majesty cares enough about gun control...

    Freddy Adu

    Yeah, it's too bad about Adu. I really think that for soccer to really suceed in the US, we need a great American player. A guy who stars in Europe, and is a very good player on a good team, not just role players, like most of the Americans there now. I guess I'd rather have him be...

    Champions League

    Yeah, you might be right on that. They started off the year with Momo Sissoko (black) starting at defensive midfield, but in January they picked up the Argentinian Javier Macherano (white), and he quickly overtook Sissoko for the starting spot. Their only other black guy who plays at all...

    Champions League

    Great victory today in penalties for Liverpool. These guys put out either an all white or almost all white team every week (today they started 1 black player, but took him out mid way), and yet still made it to the finals. What made it better was that they beat a Chelsea team, that due...

    Imus in trouble

    IMO Sharpton is the scum of the earth. I, unlike it seems some of you, like Imus because he's a funny guy. I don't agree with many of his political views, but his show is a COMEDY show. What he said was A JOKE. But now it's some overblown contraversy because he aparently with that...

    Young Players

    Hey Englishman, do you know anything about this guy David Nugent? I haven't seen him play, but aparently he's tearing up the championship and almost got transfered to the top flight in January, and he's only 21. Now McClaren's called him up to the national team, is he the real deal?

    Collin Liddell article: comments

    Yeah I'd agree on every one of those comments. I remember so many games when Bramble'd play great until aproximately minute 89 when he would just make the biggest mistakes to give up game tying or winning goals. If Owen ever gets back, you guys will have what I think will be one of the best...

    World Cup 2010

    Oh, alright, that sounds better. Capetown also had many of those shantytowns, but the city itself is very nice, especially down by the water. I also read that Joburg is enlisting ole Rudy Giuiliani to clean up the city of crime. He did a great job in NYC, but I have a feeling this'll be...

    300/Christianity Debate

    Wow, what a great movie. And clearly I'm not the only one who thought so because it raked in 70 million dollars in its first week making it the biggest March opening ever, and the 3rd highest grossing R rated movie.

    World Cup 2010

    Wow, just checked on wikipedia, not only is the center stadium in Johannesburg, but the second biggest stadium is being built in Durban, where 68% of people have flush toilets and 1/3 of people live in shanty towns. Should be a fun time!

    World Cup 2010

    I was in SA last summer, and Capetown is a really nice city with very little crime, but Johannesburg which I believe is their biggest city is one of the most dangerous places on Earth. Anyone know where the center stadiums gonna be? They should get their heads checked if they don't put it in...

    Haha, Boumsong is sort of a running joke with me and my friends. The guy gets so much hype, but is just god-awful. You guys almost had a center back pairing of him and Titus Bramble who stinks in his own right. To be fair though, Obafemi Martins, a black guy, has been great for Newcastle this...

    Young Players

    I don't get to watch Lyon much because they're in the French league, but Cris and Juninho are on them, and they are absolute monsters even though the team got ejected from the Champions League. I would now argue completely objectively that those two along with Kaka are the best Brazilian...

    Cobert Report

    I'm a big comedy fan too, and I could honestly deal with shows like the Daily Show except for the fact that the liberal audiences feel the need to applaud every point they agree with, which makes the show unwatchable. I love Colbert though, cause even though he "plays" a conservative, he does a...

    I realize now I sort of just repeated what Roundabout said in my previous post, so sorry about that. But yeah, I really have always had a soft spot for those United sides back in the 90s, culminating in their treble win in 99. I still root for pretty much that whole team, meaning guys...

    300/Christianity Debate

    Yeah I'm a history buff too, but this movie looks sick. It's really a great story and kind of the opposite of what hollywood would normally show (because the underdogs the viewers are rooting for are actually white, fighting the far greater middle-eastern side). I do hope they make a...

    When I first heard Platini was getting the job I was dissapointed because he's reducing the number of teams going into the champions league from the big leagues, but I fully support everything he's doing to keep the teams' local roots. Soccer is so different from the American sports in the way...

    USA/ Mexico game last night

    Great game for the US. Its key to bounce back from a not so good world cup by convincingly beating your rival. I was really impressed by both goal scorers (Donavin and Conrad). With Conrad, Bornstein, Oguchi Onyewu, Carlos Bocanegra, and Jay Demerit, the US has tons of depth in their defense...

    Young Players

    I do agree that Walcott was an awful pick for the world cup, but I don't think that it had anything to do with his color. It was more just Sven acting like the absolute incompetant that he is. He picked a group of strikers that included Rooney who was ruled out of the entire group...

    Not at all sir! I was born about 10 miles east of London and moved to St Paul when I was 8 but I've been a West Ham supporter all my life.
