  1. I'm guessing he has to wear a face guard because he gets punched a lot for all that yelling?
  2. Obviously, no aggies were associated with this project (except for maybe the dude with curly hair at 1:26 and, again, at 1:38):
  3. And let's not forget the best of the bunch: country-fried rattlesnake legs! They are hard to find but every once in a while ...
  4. El Tri actually looks like Los Tricolores tonight.

    As soon as I heard Roldan's name called, I knew the jig was up. Still, hats off to Panama. They were the better team today. This fucking tournament, man ...

    Would love to see Jesus in the Eredivisie.

    Sure, we've got Turner, but who's gonna take/make kicks for us?

    That could not be hit any better.

    Thank you, Jesus. Against the run of play.

    Well done, Panama. Hard to fault Matt there as the backline's failed offsides trap left him out to dry.

    Oh, fuck you, Busio.

    We need that koopa mojo! Have the lady do a "Goal 4 Team USA" dance. Maybe it'll get on the Jumbotron?

    Agree. The first angle they showed (midfield camera) seemed to indicate it came off Djordje's hand. Couldn't tell on other angles. Definitely would've been worth a yellow ... but Roldan wasn't happy merely giving the ball away, so he decided to escort Panama's counter.

    Straight-up bizarre. Even if the call goes our way, how do you do that, Djordje?

    He cannot hold position or shield the ball from anyone. Yes, he's tiny, but his "feel" also seems bad, like a shortstop giving a grounder a couple of extra bounces instead of moving forward to scoop it up sooner.

    Damn. Sweet-looking counter!

    There ya go--we know you've been champing at the bit for Roldan to make an appearance! As much as I wish he weren't on the squad, Roldan's an energy guy so he might give a small lift. And Yedlin still has some speed running down the flanks.

    Vintage Matt Turner there. Should've been a goal for Panama.

    I don't care about time of possession, but what concerns me is every deflection, every goal kick (from either side), and every 50/50 ball is settling at the feet of a Panamanian player. That indicates a lack of energy, of effort. It's like this is the first hot day the team has seen.

    Fuck yeah, dude. Vegas last weekend, now back in sunny San Diego--you're everywhere!!! And Cowell with an immediate impact. Sooooo close. EDIT: Cade does a fantastic job of keeping his feet through contact. If only he'd get the ball off his feet sooner ...
  21. Re-watched some "recent" classics (Michael Clayton, What We Do in the Shadows, and Arrival) and one 90s lemon (Last Man Standing). Michael Clayton is criminally underappreciated (not on this board, but in the mainstream). Don't know how many times I've seen it but it never gets old. Tom Wilkinson steals every freakin' scene. As funny as WWDitS is, I think I enjoy the TV series more, probably just because of Mark Proksch. Third time watching Arrival. It's a wonderful flick but also a very heavy meal. Definitely a punch to the gut. Best thing I can say about Last Man Standing is Bruce Dern's peculiarly squirrely voice always makes me grin and it's always nice to see William Sanderson.

    Not wild about Long but I guess Callaghan is punishing Neal for the latter's shaky showing versus the Canucks. Otherwise, shocked that Cowell and Vazquez are starting. My nitpick against Long notwithstanding, that's a solid lineup and better than we could've hoped. Hope they prove us right!
  23. Another report says Popov was relieved and has already been replaced. Quite different than resigning.
