I wonder why......hopefully b/c Man City is reduced to a burning crater in the ground with 115 gravestones on top of it.
So many stories of Sega NHL 93/94 tournaments in the dorms at IU. Like a ****ing professional league. Commissioner, scheduling. 5 min "late" rules. Home team chooses the music. Good times.
That was arguably the best game ever made. Quite a change from fat guy skinny guy hockeyI wonder why......hopefully b/c Man City is reduced to a burning crater in the ground with 115 gravestones on top of it.

Friend of mine had a whole team renamed to Corleone family characters. Except for his winger, Craven Morehead.
Perfect.
There's a number of Austin Milbarge's and Emmett Fitzhume's running around the soccer world as well.
If 6 people understand this post, then we as a society are better off than I thought.
We are truly llving in a simulation. My wife watched Stripes with me (first time for her, 9000th for me) this weekend.
At the end I said......if you like this you'd love Spies Like Us
Red Wings were unfair though. They were prohibited from what I remember
ManU will be fighting for 12th
Ironically, this male character's appearance seems to transcend race, class or style.
Nah, they'll be above the fold but Europe isn't looking likely. It's just SOOOO bad. So many bad, heavy waged contracts (Casemiro, Rashford) for people who don't help. Ugarte probably helps but he's an unknown. I have to think at this point in his career he's a better every day starter than Casemiro. Mount is a disaster, even when he's healthy. Not having Hojlund at the beginning of the season hurts as he was improving at the end of last year.
They still need another GOOD CB that isn't 32. I like Mazrouai. Improvement defensively over Shaw (the meat pie that he is).
I think they're top 8 but i'm not certain ETH is there after Christmas.
Roenick. Redwings. There were glitches too. Goalie stuck on a post etc.
I can't believe I am about to post something in this thread without making fun of Soccer, but just an FYI. If you have an Epic Games account, they have a free download of Football Manager 2024 by Sega of Europe available as one of their two free weekly games. $59.99 normally.
Thanks! I don’t really play video games. Racing with my daughter now and again and she’ll still play Minecraft on occasion but not really.
I am thinking about getting a switch for my minion. He’s 3. Not sure if that’s too young still
Nations league? Is that stupid shit why there are no epl games this morning? Fing hell. Enough already with the cash grab stupid crap
Some morning MLS musings. @JamieDimonsBalls barring a miracle minny knocked Stl out of playoff contention last night. Stl is in second to last place yet still had hope until last night as their last games are against weak opponents. But how insane is it that Stl still had a shot at the playoffs and has only won 5 games. More nutty is Stl won the conference last year.
Messi has been out since the copa. I see him on instagram. At the nightclubs. Constantly eating pizza and concessions at his sons’ games. He finally came back last night and they won 3-1 and he scored 2 goals and had an assist.
Watching arsenal Tottenham this am. It’s almost like watching a different sport.
Mls is unbalanced has a goofy schedule and is still bad. It’s light years better than when I got invited. Then it was some D 1 kids, some indoor guys, and some usisl guys. No real internationals like each team has a sprinkling of now with DPs. The quality is much better today.
But this league still has a long way to go.

Remind me what happened to STL between last season and this season? I assume roster turnover, but anything specific?
Also, Citypark was a great venue (though hot as shit in the peak summer months).
When you are the GOAT, you can casually dominate weaker leagues, even in your later years. I actually find it incredible how successful guys like Messi, Zlatan, Beckham were in their later years. Think about how many miles those guys have on their legs and they're still outclassing some younger guys that play internationally.
Agree, it's getting better, but still lightyears away. I was a little negative on Saka at the end of last year, but he had several really good crosses yesterday, to pile on to a great start to the season. He's beating guys whenever he wants, wherever he wants. Sounds like they are pretty confident he'll be ready for Champions League and Man City matches.
MLS guys never get consistently good balls into the box. To me, that's as much of a problem as the finishing. I've seen so many dreadful corners in MLS games.
Here's to hoping MN United scramble to make the playoffs! They've had more games where guys have been sent off than I've ever seen. At one point, it was literally 50% of their games they were down a man at some point - often with far too much time left.
Some turnover. They pressed like lunatics last year and I think got found out. Poor coaching. Minny with a big win here to help their playoff push.
Agreed on all fronts. The quality just isn’t there and it’s highlighted in the final third. Messi can’t move like he used to but his final balls and finishing just doesn’t compare to mls players. There just aren’t that many high quality technical players. Acosta and maybe two or three others but that’s it.
MN United would have another couple of wins if they still had Emanuel Reynoso. He was really good, but his legal troubles got the best of him. They just don't have anyone in the midfield with that kind of control and passing.
That is spectacular. My god those tackles. I would have jumped up and punched someone in the face. Great video. That was Liverpool legend Kenny dalglish out there
but the ref doesn't speak donkey hahahahaha
Would love to put some footsie players in a water polo match. There's a reason they made you clip your fingernails and toenails before every game.
I don’t know shit about soccer but this Zlatan dude is a character. Easy to see why the Ted Lasso gang modeled a character after him…
Ibrahimovic's best quotes as the 41-year-old icon retires from soccer
Never change, Zlatan. As the 41-year-old announced retirement from soccer, we've compiled the super Swede's best quotes.
Such a random interview, but Zlatan is an international treasure. God damn he's so great.
Loved to stick it up England's ass.
I have a bottle of Da Bomb at home - that shit is awful. Hotter than hell but has no flavor. Probably the hottest hot sauces I have tried even though I have had others with higher Scoville ratings.
It's such unnecessary torture. I like spicy, but not "sweat my ass off and feel like my airways are closing up" hot.
God dammit, i posted before i finished. Knew the ferrari quote, but sending all of Denmark into retirement is wild. Dude is like a mix of Trump and Djokovic.
So I take it he could back up the smack talk & hubris?Ibrahimovic's best quotes as the 41-year-old icon retires from soccer
