I’m excited to see what Tolvanen can do in Nashville, but wtf was the goalie doing on that wraparound goal? I would think that most (all?) NHL goalies could get back to their far post faster than the glacial-speed shuffle that Sochi’s goalie did.

He looks like a great player, and I appreciate the KHL caveat, but man... that clip in the header features some of the most shameful defending I’ve ever seen at a professional level.

Like the penalty in the first half they didn’t get? Or was that just deft coverage for the bribe?

Fourth place in the league and losing in the round of 16 in CL. Behold the new Arsenal.

Um Dybala IS better than El Pipita AND Dele. He’s on par with Kane talent wise (obvi not production wise).

Now that Spurs are out of the Champions League, they can get back to the more serious challenge of qualifying for the Champions League.

Umm, they got 3 up the wazoo with Neymar on the side.

Did you even watch the clip? He literally had an uncontested clear and then injured himself on his approach to the ball. If he was trying to kill time, why wouldn’t he have cleared the ball and then faked injured? That would guarantee the ball was cleared to safety and waste more time to bring the ball back up the…

He was clutching his knee and giving the “Back off, I’m hurt” gesture before the red player swooped in.

That one struck a nerve eh?

What’s a baseball? Is that the stick and ball thing with all the unwritten rules?

Wait, what? I don’t really care for that particular courtesy, but you can’t deny it exists if you have ever watched anything more than a negligible amount of non-American soccer.

How do you call time in soccer and when did they introduce pitchers?

I know, unwritten rules suck, but the understanding is that if you spot an injured player, you kick the ball out so he can get treatment. Whoever gets the throw-in gives it back to the other team and play resumes.

It was phrased as “current generation”. RvP, now, is well past his best.

I mean, that’s already 6 players better than him, but I wasn’t necessarily focused on those guys. Lewandowski, Kun (as you mentioned), Neymar, Hazard, Griezmann, Alexis, Muller, Dybala. Arjen Robben, old as hell, is still better than Bale, and always was. Bale is fine and good and I like him, but come on. He’s had…

$30B is for the whole gateway project, which involves completely redoing the whole alignment from Newark all the way to Penn Station. Lots of new bridges and new track. Various places where they need to buy land for new rights of way. Building the new tunnels and refurbishing the two old ones is currently expected to…

“and have one three of the last four European Cups”

Top 5 current left-footed man-bunned Welsh forwards for sure IMHO
