Following it from a distance.
With EPL, Rugby World Cup and NFL (plus Presidents Cup this weekend) I can't take on something else. The wife would hurt me bad.

I usually only tune in for the post goal disrobing celebrations. Or catch it on SportsCenter. Either way.

Here's how sick (not ill) I am.
I'm up at 4:55 AM Pacific Time tuning in. I'll be up at 4:55 AM Pacific Time tomorrow tuning in.
I have room...I never "got" rugby.
Please shoot me.

Do they air those Miller High Life commercials on the radio out there? I'm thinking directly of the one, where High Life Guy responds "Now, you know full well you ain't livin' the High Life! Man, I cain't even talk to you. Next caller." |

I'm kinda out of the radio loop, I don't turn it on much anymore...anyways with my sports TV watching schedule I think I'm more the "Real American Heroes" kind of guy.  Some might argue, I wouldn't argue back. |

I was. Didn't understand the substitution at goal to be honest but I still thought they'd win. [ Disclaimer: I watch very little women's soccer so what the hell do I know. ] |

I just saw the story on Sports Center. Controversy.  Blondie was calling out the coach, and saying she would have made all of those saves. |

Dayam! In an interview immediately following the match, Solo criticized both Ryan's decision and Scurry's performance, "It was the wrong decision, and I think anybody that knows anything about the game knows that. There's no doubt in my mind I would have made those saves. And the fact of the matter is it's not 2004 anymore. It's not 2004. And it's 2007, and I think you have to live in the present. And you can't live by big names. You can't live in the past. It doesn't matter what somebody did in an Olympic gold medal game in the Olympics three years ago. Now is what matters, and that's what I think." She's right though. |
