  1. A Soccer Question

    By nit-picky I mean that is the reason individuals don't like soccer. I don't think that's why soccer is not a top 3-4 pro sport in the US. Diving is in the weeds. It's a crutch excuse that people give for hating the sport. That's not to say it isn't a legitimate reason for not liking the...

  2. A Soccer Question

    I think hockey's biggest issue is exposure. It's just not a sport most kids are exposed to at an early age, and like soccer, the flow of the game is different than that of basketball, football, and baseball which all come from the same perspective of you are always on offense or defense, there's...

  3. Random funny ****

    Nothing compared to Siragusa's Depends commercial.

  4. A Soccer Question

    You win. There's no faking in any other sport, and there are no tough guys in soccer. But hey, if you don't like soccer you don't like soccer so we can just leave it at that even though it always disappoints me to hear such an opinion from anyone.

  5. A Soccer Question

    I mean, I'm not arguing that it's not ridiculous. I agreed it's an issue but I think it is overblown. Also I think it's important to discern between the two types of "dives". The stretcher tactic is nothing more than a time-waster. Watch the US-Ghana world cup game and you will see the...

  6. A Soccer Question

    I guess my argument is that no matter how much the avg person understands about the game, watching it on TV isn't the same as watching a baseball or football game on TV, which is where the issue lies in the US. Soccer games don't give us the same level of in game analysis as those other, more...

  7. A Soccer Question

    I love soccer and am an avid MLS supporter so I'd love to chime in on this issue. :) And I apologize in advance for the very long, sort of stream of consciousness essay to follow. But I love talking about this. You can skip to the bottom (In Summation) for cliffs notes. First off I think it's...

  8. March Madness 2013

    Rams and Gophers all the way!

  9. The TV Show suggestion thread

    The Americans is my absolute fav show to come on in the last few years. I love the Walking Dead, but the relationships and character development in The Americans are master class so far. Also Keri Russell is amazing.

  10. Keeping our kids safer

    I think there is a very fine line to be drawn when it comes to "punishing" a kid for talking to a stranger. The goal is not to get them to stay away from strangers in order to avoid punishment, the goal is for them to stay away from strangers because they understand the inherent risk involved...

  11. Tips for everyone to give, take, share on saving money

    My bf's debit card recently was ripped off and we still have no idea why. Someone was using it to get their hair and nails did in Atlanta. Of all the things to spend someone else's money on... Luckily he was able to get a new card and get the money back with no problems through BOA. As far as...

  12. US Coast Guard Reserves

    That's part of my motivation to go active :)

  13. US Coast Guard Reserves

    Update: Coast Guard it is. I ship in August and will be going active duty!

  14. What language should I learn?

    Took a while to make the decision, but my Russian 101 class starts on Monday! World Cup 2018 here I come!!!

  15. Travel List (And Wish List)

    I'm like Special K in that I love to travel and would rarely turn down the opportunity to go somewhere so long as it's affordable for me. There are a few locales on my "must visit before I die" list, though: Every US state I haven't yet been to Anywhere in Europe Iceland Russia South Korea...

  16. What's for Dinner?

    I don't want to make you feel old or anything, but this sounds a lot like my grandmother's new place :) She rarely cooks anymore because the food in their "cafeteria" is so good. She does bake from time to time, though, and makes breakfast for dinner once in a while.

  17. What's for Dinner?

    Last night I had chicken thighs rubbed with a mix of brown spicy mustard, olive oil, lemon zest, salt, thyme, and italian seasoning and thrown on the grill. Served over black beans and rice with a "sauce" of chicken stock, olive oil, garlic, brown mustard, and lemon juice which was heated and...

  18. ESPN: Lance Armstrong May Confess

    I will admit not having knowledge about this, but I'm going to assume that Lance Armstrong was mostly just a face/name for his foundation. I assume that any of the real work behind the scenes was done by many more people than just him.

  19. ESPN: Lance Armstrong May Confess

    You know the worst part about all of this? That at this point most people don't even give a **** that the dude cheated his way to the top because in the process of covering up his actions he constantly denied any wrongdoing and crucified anyone who accused him of as much, and he was extremely...

  20. You be the judge

    If they're going to prosecute the photographer, then they have a subway station full of other ppl to prosecute as well. The photographer is just extra ****ish bc he's profited off of the situation.
