re: 2014/2015 Winter Transfer Thread - madmax83 on 5/23/14 at 7:54 pm No discredit to new manager Thomas Schaaf and all that he was able to accomplish with Werder Bremen, but, unless someone miraculously falls into their lap, I think Eintracht Frankfurt are going to struggle to stay in the Bundesliga next season. Granted, I know that we had several of our best players... Posted on Soccer Board Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (0) |
re: Who will you be pulling for tomorrow, Atletico or Real? - madmax83 on 5/23/14 at 7:45 pm Los Indios!
Kinda bummed that we have an all La Liga finale, but I think it should be a good match.
I know that Atletico have done fairly well over the last few years, but I would like to see them (or really any team for that matter) pose a constant threat to the top two in La Liga.
I don't think... Posted on Soccer Board Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (0) |
re: Cardinals call up top 2B prospect Kolten Wong - madmax83 on 8/16/13 at 1:53 am [quote]But what does it mean?!
Freese to bench, Carp to 3rd is my guess, Freese is sucking arse.[/quote]
Wong will get some playing time, but I doubt it will be more than a bench role this season. I honestly don't see them getting rid of Freese. Even though he hasn't been playing that well, he'... Posted on More Sports Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (2) |

Gotcha. Either way, I don't think it won't be a huge problem. I think any kinks will be worked out by the 5th-7th match.

I'm not saying that's the only reason. I meant that in reference to our perceived lack of a soccer culture. In most countries (but not all) soccer is the biggest sport.

@HH
I don't think moving Schweinsteiger up to an offensive mid is necessarily a bad thing. I think Javi will do fine in the defensive mid role.
As much as I hate FC Hollywood, I still think th... Posted on Soccer Board Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (1) |
re: US Soccer's lack of stars - madmax83 on 8/15/13 at 10:00 pm First of all, even though soccer is popular at the elementary school level, it's nowhere near one of our countries most popular sports. Most of our best athletes either play football or basketball, and depending on what part of the country you live in, baseball or hockey.
Added to that, of the few... Posted on Soccer Board Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (3) |
re: Anyone else concerned with Tim Howard? - madmax83 on 8/15/13 at 9:47 pm I'm not saying Howard's one of the best keepers in the world, but he is a pretty strong keeper, and certainly one of the best in the EPL.

re: Will the USMNT ride this unbeaten wave to a World Cup title? - madmax83 on 8/14/13 at 5:17 pm I think they have a better chance than any other year I can think of, but I doubt it.
I think more than likely, one of the big guys (Spain, Argentina, Brazil, Germany, France, or Italy) will win it. I think the Netherlands and Portugal are pretty close to that top group as well. My dark horse candi... Posted on Soccer Board Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (2) |

In fact, I would say that ESPN (and really most of the media as a whole, including the CBS crew) strongly dislike LSU, or at the very least give them less credit than they deserve...
