So, I’m definitely Liverpool biased, and haven’t been able to watch every minute of every game due to work, but my overall gestalt completely agrees with your assessment. Jesus must have some compromising photos on Tite or something. I personally did a simple statistical analysis right now. Brazil scored 4 goals in…

I’m one for style points. Plays like that should seriously count double!

“When mother calls, you listen.”

I think this is an excellent take on the Salah situation. He has always been a very humble, eager to please sort of player for a superstar, not wanting to wade into politics. The main thing I would have added to this article is a mention of the regime’s treatment of Egypt’s last “superstar” player, Mohamed Aboutrika,…

Ok, this guy, his lawyer, and also you, can all go F*%& off.

As a Liverpool fan, I recognized that goal as a Coutinho shot immediately. I was watching from far enough away that I couldn’t recognize who had the ball, but that curling shot from the corner of the box couldn’t have been anybody else. Just wish Brazil would’ve put Firmino in earlier to save the match from that…

true. I hear Sam Allardici is available!

Sous vide BBQ meat is the BEST! I haven’t tried the ribs yet, and this article is definitely motivating, but all the other meats I’ve done have been fantastic! I want to give a mention to the more natural alternative to liquid smoke. If you actually have a smoker or appropriate grill, you can finish the meats on it…

Here’s a revolutionary idea: don’t read it.

Nice analysis. Based on the look on Loma’s face while he was going down, it was a decently powerful shot that he walked into, but I agree with Laughing Crow that if his feet were under him and not in the even stance, he probably would’ve caught himself without going down. Still definitely counts.

This brings me back to my lowest/proudest day as a freshman in college during hell week. Trying to impress people with my commitment to the drinking cause, I had Beer-ios for my late night snack. Quite simply Busch Lite poured over Cheerios, just like it sounds. At least the recipe mentioned above with Kahlua mixed…

Take your star, you dirty animal.

Can these guys immediately replace Hawk Harrelson? Please?

Yes, that... and also the actual attempted murder of an Irish Liverpool fan by two Roma hooligans.

Damn it Patrick! You Trumped me on the young Willem Defoe reference. I’d already even gone to Google Images and downloaded this picture just to put in the comments here, and then you drop the mention almost as an afterthought at the end of the article. Well, here’s the picture anyway, seeing as how I wasted a good 15…

As a Liverpool fan, I’ve always respected and admired much of the City team, especially Vincent Kompany, and even Pep. So, if we can’t win it, good for them. But f*ck Sterling with a corner flag.

Just watched the clip now. After reading elsewhere that it was “controversial”, I desperately wanted it to be a bad call just to make Real appear even more villainous. But that’s just a stone-cold penalty. On another note, I hope the “Dreamkiller” Oliver nickname takes off in England.

Holy mother, ay dios mio, I couldn’t take a single full breath in that first 45 minutes! But that Salah perfectly composed finish was like a dose of Klonopin to a freaked out ED patient! I’ve never been the biggest Lovren fan (in fact, I was of the Sakho contingent a few years ago, even buying a Sakho jersey), but a…
