    2016 British Open

    Phil retains the lead after shooting a 2 under 69 in the 2nd round! He's leading by one at -10 over Henrik Stenson, who had a great round today. Following them are Soren Kjeldsen and Keegan Bradley at -7, then Zach Johnson at -5. Phil had a pretty good round today; I'm hoping he'll be able to...

    2016 British Open

    Phil Mickelson nearly makes history, having a putt for 62 lip out on 18!! Still, Phil the Thrill shoots a bogey-free 63 and currently leads the Open at -8! Patrick Reed, Zach Johnson, and Martin Kaymer are tied for 2nd at -5. Rory McIlroy is at -2, and Jordan Spieth is even.

    Summer 2016 Transfer Thread.

    Also, Borussia Dortmund have had some pretty good signings so far: They signed Barcelona's Marc Bartra, who I believe spurned interest from BPL teams to sign with Dortmund. He should be able to play right away and takes Mats Hummels' spot for Dortmund...

    Emmanuel Petit actually being honest about Pogba, saying while he could develop, he isn't a star now, and isn't worth 100 million: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-3686299/Paul-Pogba-100m-waste-money-s-not-big-star-blasts-former-France-midfielder-Emmanuel-Petit.html

    UEFA EURO 2016

    In some better news, I was looking at the first two matches of the UEFA U19 Euro Championships which were played today. In a strange twist, they're actually well, European!! Of the first two matches today, Austria drew against Portugal, and Italy beat Germany on a handball penalty late in the...

    UEFA EURO 2016

    It's all happened after Jupp Heynckes retired after the 2013 season, and Pep took over. He sold Kroos and Schweinsteiger, and put Gotze on the bench. That doesn't even mention him buying a ton of non-whites to replace Robben, Ribery, etc. The only good purchase he's made has been Lewandowski...

    UEFA EURO 2016

    That's what I'm beginning to think. BS2 also said that it was Deschamps fault for packing the team with a lot of blacks. It's not entirely his fault, especially after the whole "quota" thing with Blanc before him. He's probably under pressure from French Football Federation to not look "racist,"...

    Summer 2016 Transfer Thread.

    It sounds like Mario Goetze will be going back to Borussia Dortmund. This is definitely a good move for him, as he's looking to revive his career after Pep put him on the bench at Bayern. Goetze should be in line for a lot of playing time, especially with Mkhitaryan headed to Manchester United...

    UEFA EURO 2016

    I agree. If Portugal had to play one of the three really good white teams you mentioned, they wouldn't have gotten too far. I wish one of them were on the other side of the bracket. How in the hell did our three best chances at a predominately white team winning the tournament end up in the same...

    UEFA EURO 2016

    Just what I was about to say. A "European" team won it with 5 whites on the pitch over another "European" team with a paltry 4. To top it off, they beat two primarily white teams in the semis. I don't think it can get much worse.

    UEFA EURO 2016

    Ronaldo was just subbed off due to being injured by Payet. Portugal now playing with just 5 whites. This "European" Final is a disaster. Short of Giroud and Griezmann scoring everything for France, I don't know how anything can be salvaged from this one.

    UEFA EURO 2016

    Well, 6 white starters for Portugal, and of course, 4 for "France." Even though Portugal still sucks from a demographic standpoint, it's still a night/day choice on who to root for in this match. Like Thrashen said, at least Portugal's non-white contingent aren't all black as night Africans...

    UEFA EURO 2016

    Well, our last hope of having a decent team winning just went out the window. I guess I'll just hope white players score the goals in the finals.

    Lowe starting Can. That's why I wasn't going to get too optimistic. Diversity boy needed to meet his mandatory 3 non-white quota in the starting XI.

    UEFA EURO 2016

    I do believe Draxler will play. I'm not sure what formation Germany will be coming out in, but I believe Draxler will get the start. In some good news, German captain Bastian Schweinsteiger will be starting against France!! This (hopefully) means 9 white starters for Germany from here on out...

    UEFA EURO 2016

    From what I've heard, it sounds like Dortmund youngster Julian Weigl has a great chance to start in the midfield alongside Toni Kroos should Schweinsteiger not be able to play against France. Weigl was one of the breakout players in the Bundesliga last year, and at just 20 years old, he has some...

    UEFA EURO 2016

    Great post, Thrashen!!! One small correction, England actually started 6 blacks; Sturridge was starting instead of Wilshere, so it was even worse than adverstised. What an odious team, and I'm glad they're finished. One observation: during the half-time show, Belgium's Vincent Kompany blames...

    I recorded the England/Iceland game to watch after work today, and boy, am I glad I ever did! What a game from Iceland!! It's awesome to see Iceland, with a population of 330,000, in the last eight!! What an achievement for Iceland!! Hopefully, the can keep it going against France. England...

    UEFA EURO 2016

    Germany has looked a lot better in this match against Slovakia, but overall, they haven't been too convincing as of yet. Germany have also struggled with Spain and Italy recently. Even though Germany does have a lot of attacking power, Italy's defense has looked great so far this tournament. As...

    UEFA EURO 2016

    I missed the 2nd half of the match (was busy with other things), but looking at the box score, it appears Griezmann bailed the French team out again. To think he was actually benched for Coman after the 1st match. It's obvious Griezmann is one of France's best players; only a white guy could get...
