So if Ze Germans had beaten Ghana, and we got the same result we would already be in the round of 16? Are they still bitter?

Didn't deserve? A bit of stretch. You always get what you deserve. Last I checked, that 2-1 score will stand forever and so will that win. They lost Jozy, Dempsey wasn't the same after the shin-to-face, and they lost another starter. Can you really fault them for struggling a little bit? If Ghana had lost any of…

Good job to the corvette teams finishing 2nd and 4th in their class.

It is possible for major athletes to take pay cuts, especially if you can make money other ways. If Carmelo went to the Lakers he could get better endorsement deals to supplement the income. If he's thinking about taking a pay cut for the Heat, he would have taken one for the Lakers, too bad all the Kobe money is…

If the NBA is capable of blocking the Chris Paul trade, I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility for them to stop the Heat from doing this as well.

I never really liked this car, and now I have even less reasons to like it.

If you think it works, then it will work. In endurance sports, your mental outlook on the event can be the difference in a DNF and a PR. At one point I REALLY believed my pre-race ritual was the reason for my faster times, but in reality it was the calming effect of them and the belief in them that allowed me to…

Hmm, looking at the FA's available you get get with Kobe, Paul, Metta etc money they "have/would have had" you could get Lebron/Carmelo and any combination of the following: Eric Bledsoe, Kyle Lowry, Deng, ZBo, Love, Gortat, and Rudy Gay. You can put together a pretty decent starting 5 with Carmelo, Rudy Gay, ZBo,…

They share their arena, fan base, and 95% or potential ticket buyers (who buy those beers, merch, and hot dogs mmmmmmm hot dogs) with another team that's fun to watch, just overcame a terrible owner that put profits over winning for the last 30 years, and is extremely marketable. Those profits you speak of will be…

Really? I think it's a wash because his contract/abilities ratio is low. He'll drag the Lakers through two more seasons of mediocrity while the Clippers steal their bandwagon fans and part of the market share more than discounting what he did 4 years ago. Imagine if they let him walk, put it all in the basket for…

Orbitz! Not the gum.

Ugh, well the 2009 Corvette ZR1 managed a terrible 355 grams of C02, while the brand new Ferrari F12 manages an amazing 350 grams of C02. I mean, that is impressive. As for the BSFC, I can't find the numbers to run so I gave up because its pounds of fuel per hour divided by horsepower. The Vette produces 650 hp,…

You troll hard but the facts aren't with you. F12 returns worse MPG, less torque by A LOT, is three times the cost in just retail price not to mention running costs, will be less reliable, and the vette will be faster around a track. So please explain to me why in the world would I spend an extra $200k on a slower…

I've broken bones, torn ligaments, and walked into the ER with a smile on my face because shock and adrenaline make everything better. BUT every time I get a foot or leg cramp I fall on the ground and try to get away from the offending appendage as fast as possible while using my fairy voice and cursing like a sailor.…

Because its not a faux hybrid.

Jesus! The old man Shuttles down the paint for a Worthy dunk. Good for him.

We all know the best coaches are fat.

In the MMA world, the moment you're called out by anyone you must defend your honor then and there. So what he didn't want to fight a rangy Eastern European monster, he's getting another kind of monster all together. Cormier was right about the fact that if he wants to, he's putting JJ on the mat. Cormier will win…

I honestly have no idea if he is a leader on that team, but the way people talk about him I would make that assumption. In retrospect, I think Jurgen can recognize what the team really needs and maybe he feels Donovan really doesn't belong on that team. However, if Donovan was even close to making this team the…

Youth over leadership, that always works.
