A spurs twitter account posted this old SI piece from when van Gaal got the sack at Bayern earlier: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/writers/r…

I just read this piece in SI from when he was sacked by Bayern, and I gotta say I agree with you. Massimo Allegri sounds like he would do a fine job, and he at least would presumably be able to form a partnership Baldini, which, why have a director of football if they're not bought into the manager. My main concern is…

Good stuff Billy. You sort of get at this in mentioning Ed Woodward but a big part of this story that keeps getting left out by everyone is that David Gill departed as chief executive last summer as well. You really can't lay the transfer market failures at Moyes's feet, especially considering that his experience at…

You just have to know this is going to deprive Spurs of van Gaal as a savior.

+1 fourth place trophy

Billy Haisley could learn a thing or two from you.

Excuse me Barry but this post is not canon. As you can see Evan Mathis is an orc, not a troll. TYIA for the correction.

Didn't realize Washington was bringing back Wabbitude.

It is wrong, but only because Arsenal deserves to be consigned to an hilarious eternity of coming in fourth without winning a trophy while Wenger grows ever thinner and more ashen with each passing year. Undead Wenger IN.

well gomez's antics hurt his team's chances once he went and got his dumb ass ejected over a few mild words of disapproval

Ah! So he's a contingent truth. Now I get it.

I am pro-fun, but I also am anti-violence, which is why I maintain that Gomez is more in the wrong here. Sure, I will happily concede that Gerrit Cole is a jerk for holding the opinions that he holds. I seriously doubt that it was the content of the statement exactly that set Gomez off, as opposed to being called out.…

I'm not mad, I'm teasing you for being a weenie you silly goose.

I heard dressage is pretty cool and dignified, maybe that would be more your jam

now there's a sweet thought

I agree with your take 100%. The things Moyes was able to accomplish at Everton were really valuable to that club and its supporters I hope will come to remember him with gratitude. I think these accomplishments also suggest he has a very different skill set than what United is looking for, and what Everton needed to…

Yeah but what's wrong with players giving other players shit? Who cares if what Cole claims he said was dumb, or wrong, he should totally be entitled to give Gomez shit in this situation. Trash talking should be encouraged, if not mandated, in a stodgy old man's game like baseball. It's fun to see Cole call out Gomez,…

+1

So what? Gomez tried to show up Cole by pimping what he thought was a home run, and looked a fool. Cole then showed up Gomez by paying him a visit on third and having a little chat. Fair enough for me, and no excuse for Gomez to blow a gasket.
