That makes a lot of sense. Games set in WWII often focus on the "glory" of war, while a game set in WWI would by necessity have to focus on the dire costs and horrors of war. Done right, this could actually be an incredibly powerful, emotionally-wrenching experience. It would probably be less about victory than…

The fact is, though, that Kaiser Wilhelm wasn't really a villain any more than any of the other leaders that got drawn into the fight. The only reason that we even hang the "villain hat" on Wilhelm's head is that his side "lost," and was forced to foot the bill for reconstruction. By the end of the war, all the…
Given that the defensive line in general has been a major question mark, and Besler was an available target of opportunity who has actually been pretty decent, it would make sense.
"They take care of their cats," says Doug Bond, an offensive lineman from 2002 to '04.
What do the stats say regarding short throws versus long throws in terms of goal production?
With the evolution of the playmaking winger as the primary creative force in modern soccer teams, where will it go next?
For a long time, I supported US Soccer out of obligation. It was my country, so I kind of had to watch them play, though I would constantly be itching to switch over to watch Germany or Spain or Brazil play. When Klinsmann came on board, I got excited for the first time. The early going was rocky, but watching this…
He was cutting in and shooting with his left.
The Seattle Sounders hosted the Portland Timbers last night, and it was no ordinary match. It was the nationally televised home debut of newest Sounder Clint Dempsey, and it was held in a sold-out CenturyLink Field. So the home faithful pulled out all the stops.
Generally, people who hate Catelyn generally hate the Starks, because they ALL make terrible decisions motivated by grief, sense of honor, misplaced trust, pride, etc., that end up costing them crucial support in their ongoing struggles. Ned goes investigating, and then brags about his findings to someone who is…
2 man enter, 1 man leave!
Gareth Bale is definitely a world-class player, and he is absolutely NOT worth that much money. Hell, even Messi isn't worth that much. No sleight against either player, it's just that there is no way a single player is worth that much unless you have a magical football-playing robot capable of repairing itself…
Yeah, it's pure dickery right there.
Seriously. Chelski is fucking stacked with wingers at the moment, so Willian would essentially be the most expensive benchwarmer ever, all to spite Spurs. Abramovic is a complete and utter tool.
As a Spurs fan, I've been through the stages of grief. First, there was denial. Our Weezus would never leave us! Then came anger. That ingrate is just pretending to be hurt! After that came the bargaining. Maybe AVB can figure out a way to convince him to stay with us! Finally, came acceptance. Real Madrid are about…
Now, for the all important question: Who does Patrick Stewart support?
It's really easy for us in the US to criticize this, given that there are really no consequences for us. For them, though, this "accident" was the difference between continuing a promising career and time in the gulag. I can't say I blame them.
Arsenal is profitable, but their ownership is not keen on spending that lucre because they wish to stay profitable.
If Jozy Altidore is successful at Sunderland, his stock could rise, and you might see him at a club further up the table in the next few years. Barring some sort of injury (knocking on all the wood, here), this will probably happen.
