Yes. The final few years under SAF they overachieved. Now that LVG has built the defense back up, people say that their style is boring and they aren't scoring goals. Which is true. But Jose is not the answer. This is the guy that will park the bus.

Fair points, though I think you’re giving van Gaal far too much credit. He’s shored up the defence but at the expense of any creativity; he’s actually broken attacking players, and that’s completely on him. I live in Greater Manchester and the calls for his head arose as early as last season, but I’d say United fans…

To be fair, it’s what the majority of United fans believe and Woodward has historically been very smug about the corporate side of United’s success. I think the mega-bucks have only been a recent trend.... a trend following the worrying/hilarious trend of getting progressively shitter.

However, we non Lakers fan are truly in heaven right now. Jim, keep doing what you’re doing.

Fucking hypocrite getting plenty of support from the big banks, I see.

No playoffs? I’m golden!

NO, we all know who is responsible for the current Leicester City squad:

Bettman should thank whatever God he believes in that Scott didn’t club him over the head with the trophy and then run over his body with the car.

The Petros and Money Show is to talk radio as Deadspin is to the internet. Download their podcast. It will take a few listens to get caught up to speed with the inside jokes and grab-assery, but its well worth it.

Blargh.

Joe Buck? Fuck that, give it to Uecker.

No one’s going to be able to adequately eulogize Scully, but at least Uecker would be entertaining and not a pandering asshat.

Let me know when this happens to Diego Costa.

From the bay. Hate these hats. It’s like saying you like pie AND cake. No, you can only pick one, motherfucker.

Wow, this is going to piss off the Republican candidates just in time for the debate - something black that likes ACORNs.

They don't pop up for me. You are probably infected with malware.

Oh sweet baby Jesus somebody please fire Hawk Harrelson. What a disaster.

The Kings cannot terminate a contract while a player is suspended by the league. The NHL suspended Voynov within hours of his arrest. What the arrest brings up is a passport/visa issue, Richards is useless as a trade piece let alone NHL player if he can’t freely cross the border.

“After all, they didn’t terminate Jarret Stoll’s contract” - uh, that’s because the contract expiring, and he will be an unrestricted free agent in a couple days. The Kings had no need to fire someone who was no longer going to be employed. FWIW they also gave him the common courtesy of telling him he was not going to…
