Little bit of a surprise that. The return at the Allianz should be good.

Man, Bayern got killed. Pep trying to turn them into Barca and worried more about possession than scoring. Have been boring to watch as of late. I hope Real kills Chelsea in the finals or Atletico does today.
Poor Gerrard, I'm sure he keeps reliving that goal he handed Chelsea. Hopefully they can still win it all.

I hate to see Ronaldo's head swell any bigger but that was some show,
and in Munich!
Steven Gerrard - almost a great footballer. I don't care what Zidane said,
he was just being nice, for once.

It is very simply the very best example of a simple sport the plainly shows pure talent, skill, teamwork... I love to watch, wish I could play and hope all can come to appreciate the game as I do.

Jingy, thanks, some amazing gols there! I could watch that shiz all night. I hate to tell you all
the futbol I've seen. Played on a NCAA Division 1 national playoff contenda. Scored a gol on
on a corner kick - back post! I've seen Pele in his prime a number of times. I get sad just
thinking of Maradona. Played an awesome game in the sand at a basecamp at 15,000'! Huff!

 Speaking of all night watching.... found a couple of 2 hour and 1.5 hour vids of the "greatest" shots and plays... something mesmerizing about this game to me, when its played well.
Neymar, Messi, Ronaldo, Benzima... there are so many greats and they are always making great plays happen.

For the moment: Spain Effin Rules!!!!!
and I am grinning from ear to ear.
I have to admit that I'm really rooting for Everton this weekend in the Premier League, and I well know that they are the underdogs. Man. City already has one, and despite the Biter Suarez I want Liverpool to win. More so, I'm totally bummed that Arsenal lost Ozil for a very critical part of the season. It would have been a way different season with Ozil playing the whole time. I guess you could say that about RVP and MU. WhereTF is he?
Oh, and the World Cup is going to start in scant months, right?
I could go on, but I'll have another glass of unoaked French Chardonnay instead.
FA Cup... ... ... ?
So this is a rather old anonymous account I created. Someone (Clint?) has to have access to software that will do an analysis of text/vocabulary/grammar to produce an unambiguous correlation to other posters. ... For me it would be worth the small embarrassment of the dénouement compared to knowing it can be done. Then again, life is short.
Anyone But Chelsea!
and yes, thanks for the goals Jingy.

Holy Sh#t,...
Are you able to view EPL games this year?
Provider?
I've been surviving on gulps of great games from the Champions League and that'll be coming to an end soon... so I live in fear of losing my connection with the sport.
For the moment: Spain Effin Rules!!!!!

Jingy NBC Sports Network has the EPL. They also do F1. Even though the seasons are about done we got the World Cup starting in June, so we get Football year round this year, woohoo.
Go Everton, just for today.

Jingy, there's also this option for $20 a month, but they have a ton of live games on. I think you can watch them anytime too.
Watching Man Useless losing to Sunderland as I'm drinking my Peet's. Good Saturday so far.

Ok... I'm gonna have to go on a quest on my cable box to get something going..
At this time though I have the foxsoccertogo.com on a yearly payment system, but just after I paid for the year they stopped showing the EPL and only show random leagues (Aus, Scot, Ire, some concacaf) which is mostly ok for the fix between big Champions League games.... Oh, and ESPN3 (if you have one of the cable providers on their list you can watch online) online that keep a good collection of Bundesliga, La Liga, and Ligue1... Obviosly great games happen mostly in Europe/England... the Aussies can put on a show and I have seen at least one Aussie team woking perfect practice sessions with their opponents, but it's all with a certain, I don't know, adolescent look about it...
Thanks for the heads up!!!
Cheers

Many of the Liverpool players and fans may feel as though they had just been hit by a flying toilet. I checked the score at 3-0. Seemed like they were going to run it up from there. Checked back 20 minutes later and my jaw dropped. Ouch.
Given how this season seems to be going, I could easily see City slipping up as well. Though they would have to work hard to do it that spectacularly.
As long as it doesn't open the door for Chelsea.

My 6 year old has developed a fascination with Crystals and Minerals. When he first heard there was a team called Crystal Palace, his shared love of my teams evaporated. When he saw that his team was playing one of my favorite teams today, he actually looked up once or twice while playing Minecraft. The atmosphere at Selhurst Park was awesome. Tony Pulis has pulled this team up and and kept them in the league. Crushing draw for Liverpool, I feel for Gerard. Manchester City could choke still against Aston Villa this week. Stay tuned.

It seems we all agree "F*#k Chelsea!"
Man that was hard to watch yesterday. 3 goals in nine minutes. Man City has to lose now or it's the third straight Manchester title. Been a great season.
Jingy, that sucks about 2go not showing EPL. I thought they did. Do they have Bundesliga?

City only has Villa and Wet Spam left. Can't see them losing to either...though I couldn't see the Poo getting hit for 3 in 9 minutes to draw against Palace either.
I'd give West Ham a better chance at winning or drawing City than Villa. Fat Sam knows how to set up to frustrate, probably play a 4-6-0.

Yeah, Rodgers was sure they are done now, but who knows. I'm hoping the Villans beat them, cause they have the coolest nickname and one of my indoor teams I play on is named Aston Villa.

I can't say I agree.... Chelsea is a great team.... Under André Villas-Boas I thought they could have been great but were a little like angry teens than a team...
Under Roberto Mateo I thought Chelsea we damn solid, just missing the mark by a scoatch...
Now, it remains to be seen... so far it's looking good for Carlo Ancelotti...
To be honest though it seems that Chelsea can look bad next to a FC Bayern Munich or an FC Barcelona.
Jingy, that sucks about 2go not showing EPL. I thought they did. Do they have Bundesliga?
No, 2Go does not have German league. When I first found the fox soccer site I was totally jazzed, thought I was the only one who had access to the EPL in America... then after the first year subscription had lapsed and just after I signed on for another year I got an alert about EPL not being licensed to FOX going forward (at least for the current year)... I thought I saw some of the German Bundesliga on the foxsoccertogo, but now that I think about it it may have just been the opening teams entered into the champions league that I am thinking of... but no. ESPN 3 has access to the Bundesliga, but you have to have a subscription to an available cable channel to have the access.
I have a local Indoor soccer center near my home that used to provide my soccer fix...but I eventually got tired of seeing myself in the middle of a strong soccer crowd without a team to root for so I stopped that...
