Loving the Blaine comment, classic!
Watched the Cluj game, Chelsea were lucky getting a draw in that one. Pereira impressed me a lot, minus his one huge dive on a Ballack tackle. Great actor though... definitively fooled both me and the ref.
Don't know enough about the raiders situation to make an informed vote, though Leafs are definitively deserving. Newcastle could be an option as well... Such a promising first game, then everything went to hell after that.
Red Patch Live....dudes got busy with their personal lives so it's so longer a go.
Cheering the White Sox myself, want to see Griffey get his.
three out of five is a joke.
especially when you consider you play 160-something games to get there.
that's just ass-backwards.
cheering for anybody but the red sox, cubs and dodgers. probably in that order.
Newcastle is a disaster, but they don't have the years of debacle that the Leafs and Raiders are working on now.
YF, seems to me things have cooled some in general with the RPB's. Maybe I'm off, but don't see any big roadies happening anymore either, no?
GBVH, couldn't agree more on the 3 of 5. It's a joke. I also think the team with home field should at least get four games of the five (or 5 in a best of 7). Whenever you can give more value to the regular season, I'm in favor.
