I heard they used to eat space krill but now need to be Force fed.

They know when you’ve been bad or good, so be good for goodness sake.

Watched first 4 episodes of WOT. I am on book 4. I really like it so far. The deviation from the books is actually kind of cool, although I hope they bring it all back to the book soon. Other than too many actresses with frequent flyer cards from the dermatologist, I’ve enjoyed the plot...

I recorded and watched the Arsenal-MU and half of the liverpool match and parts of Saturday games. Arsenal-MU was a fun watch. Arsenal pressure and control vs MU counters, there was a pair of phenomenal saves by the Arsenal GK before the breakaway disallowed goal, but Arsenal really controlled...

Great seeing Turner get a chance to play and a shutout win for NF. Happy for him.

SMU’s “momentum” was a direct result of the activities that earned them the death penalty.

I had a group I was with for a decade plus of season tickets. Have not heard a peep this season, although it might be more me than the team . That said, I have a group of close friends that I generally do an annual tailgate with. I coach my daughter’s soccer team so waiting on the schedule...

I watched from 80:00 when I arrived at the gym this morning (13m stoppage time). Spain was so good. It was like a rugby side vs soccer technicians. They have a thoroughly enjoyable brand of soccer. Cheers to Espana.

Girma was great. She can stop any sideline attack, great 1 on 1, steady in the build up and she had at least one incredible pass for an offensive opportunity (I think we scored on it). She also wrote a beautiful article on her deceased Stanford teammate.

It’s kind of a double whammy- lost in first round knockout and wasted a roster spot and valuable WWC experience on Rapinoe. Several spots open up on the A team, hopefully we have some talent to step in.

Spain is a fun team to watch. If I wasn’t on vacation I might wake up for the final. England is big and very physical, this will be an interesting final.

On the way to DC today. Can anyone recommend a sightseeing/bus tour? FIL is over 70, was hoping to do something that would provide narration and hit all the major sites.

That’s a crazy story. I will say that parents have an expectation that college coaches are attending these tournaments and they get upset when numbers are low. I’m a bit surprised that a quality ECNL player had no college interest. I’d question the club coach as well as they should be...

Family friend’s’ daughter plays ECNL for CFC, she recently committed to Charlotte. If you’re playing elite club soccer, you get seen. To your point, the club costs really aren’t horrible for the year - it’s the travel to tournaments where you shell out the $$$ on family travel. There are also...

I’m on soccer coach/parent forums (my daughter/team is U12). High school soccer is for playing with friends. They don’t need prep. It’s all about the clubs for competition and exposure.
