I unironically think shootouts are better than penalties.

But when you hear shootouts you think of two swole alphas seeing who can dose the most Vietnamese knockoff AOD581

Chris de Sperg posted:In some strange alternate universe (in the mind of an NFL.com editor), the NFL has a World Cup team. What you will see below is a starting 11 of the game's greatest players placed in soccer positions where they could conceivably succeed. Just like with the U.S. Men's National Team and its surprising cut of Landon Donovan, there were some difficult decisions to make with this team, too. This list is null and void because I do not see Tom Brady or Peyton Manning. Let alone little maestro Drew Brees.

As a Scottish man, I am 100% behind penalties, because nothing makes an English team bottle harder than penalties.

quote:Portugal is still favored against the US, don't get me wrong. But a huge part of that is Ronaldo. If Ronaldo was actually hurt and this wasn't media driven mountains from molehills the US would be favored.

ESPN truly is the world's leader in sports news http://www.espnfc.com/story/1863620 quote:Nana Kwaku Bonsam, a witch doctor whose name translates as "The Devil of Wednesday" and who plies his trade at the Kofioo Kofi shrine in Kumasi, claims he foresaw Ronaldo's injury back in February and that it is entirely his doing, according to The Guardian.

quote:JR has already discussed transfer targets with DM. He has also opened lines of press communication. He is plenipotentiary. quote:The real lines of communication within the new structure will be interesting. quote:As PC and I have pointed out on several threads a good deal of what Hughton did, both in a club-wide and strict coaching sense, was intelligent, thoughtful and diligent. This would forever be the case with any single manager. The good departs with the bad. The cult and romance of the unilateral emperor makes addictive, wide-eyed copy for the credulous, but it is not good business. Its origins are in insecure football protectionism. I like the template I see now. I expect refinement, shifting roles and favourites at court and (I should be disappointed not to see) some Macchiavellian manoeuvrings to curry favour at court, which will generate some constructive stress, but the longer term consequence will be the dissolving of Chinese walls between business and football and some much-needed cross-pollination of information, ideas and principles of scrutiny and oversight from board to ball.
