  1. We watch it with the daughter.

    It's fun and we are amused by the references and stuff.

    Poor Austin had a bad 60's in their new timeline. Kennedy gets smoked in ATX and maybe Whitman still does his tower shooting 3 years later...

  2. The Spanish midfield of Xavi, Iniesta and Xabi Alonso (and Biscuits when they went double pivot) was insane.

    That 6 year run was amazing. And to think that was right in the middle of some of the nastiest el clasicos with Mou and Pep.

  3. First off, I'm an idiot.  It's "9 Dragons". 
    In the book, Eleanor takes a  job as a professional poker player at a casino in Hong Kong and meets hooks up with the Chinese dude.    Maddie gets kidnapped, and Harry goes to Hong Kong to find her.
     

    So Bosch gets his own Taken movie.
  4. As was said above, Bosch knows he'll never get Walker on his mom's murder but the confession to him and J.Edgar was enough for him to put it to rest.

    I loved this season differently than the previous, I like that they basically spent the entire Season rehumanizing or recentering Bosch after the whole grey-area Ed Gunn story line from last season.

    I was joking with my wife going into the finale that it's amazing that Bosch hasn't shot anyone this season. And he finished it that way.

    Season 5 is confirmed so I'm sure it'll involve Walkers trial, the fallout from Irvin and the Mayor's power play, the potential FBI leak/tip to the Chinese. I just hope we don't have a Bosch in China going all Jack Bauer. I like the procedural bloodhound Bosch.

  5. Hopefully it isn't this one: 
     
    He also totally blew a goal against Real Madrid in the Ida of their Quarterfinal matchup.

    He is the least clutch striker ever. (At least who played/plays for Argentina.)
    I think that he had a wonder blunder for Real Madrid in the Champions League many years ago and the fans never forgave him for it.

    He just never scored in champions league for Madrid.

    That's why they kept Benz and sold Higuin.
  6. I thought it was a pen.
    I heard on Sirius FC this morning they were trying to equivocate to American sports. You don't see a lot of penalties or fouls called in American sports in the last moments of any games, much less playoff games. Thought that was an interesting point.  


    There are lists out there of missed calls and late calls that change the endings of games.

    Off the top of my head:
    Hand of God
    Thierry Henry hand of frog
    The NBA acknowledging they didn't call 2-3 fouls on Durant against Lebron in the final minute

    Going the other way:
    Cowboys-Lions playoff game 3 years ago, last minute PI.
    OSU-Miami mnc, OSU gets a PI and wins in OT.

    No matter what, there are going to be 50% of the populous that say you don't make that call/bad call and the other half saying you have to call that/good call.


    To me, you go through the player to get the ball, whether it's midfield or the box, 10" or 90+", you are putting your life in the refs hands.

    Now put 2 hands on his back and swing your leg through his arm and chest to get the ball...
