Posted Thursday May 01, 2008, About: Man City to sack Goran-Eriksson

This guys is a joke... he's just still pissed that SGE didn't start his Thai Nats, even though they couldn't play in the UK due to work permits because Thailand is one of the worst footballing nations in the world.

Is he just trying to appease the hoardes of Thai gamblers to bet on who the next manager will be?

He's a disgrace to the anything he remotely touches. I thought Abramovich was bad, but this guy is half Putin, half Pol Pot. If I didn't love City so much I would want them to be in shambles just so he'll realize what a moron he is.

then there would be two New Yorkers in the front line for Villareal... but only 1 American.

Posted Wednesday April 30, 2008, About: McBride coming home to Fire?

LA Galaxy... lost vagenas and xavier. He would be a PERFECT target for Becks and Lando

Posted Friday February 29, 2008, About: Sven wants to overhaul Man. City

they'll be competing for the Top 4 next season, count it.

They need another top-class striker, right midfielder, DM, and left back. Otherwise they're a Champions League team.

Liverpool has been trying to buy Michael Johnson, Elano is world-class, Petrov is a stud, the back 4 is pretty top-notch.

Posted Saturday February 09, 2008, About: Reds, A's discuss Blanton deal

Harang was a steal from us... Hudson has also DONE exceptionally well in Atl for all we have from that trade is junk. If you've watched Blanton pitch, he's a solid #2-3 on any staff will keep you in the game and have moments of brilliance when his curve is breaking well. (Ask Minnesota) They seem to always get shut-down by Kentucky Joe. (Even with Mauer, Morneau, and Hunter) He's a solid guy whose era should drop to the 3's when he moves to the NL (like Harang, but much more talent)

Posted Sunday December 23, 2007, About: Inter wants Manchester City star

Elano is sheer class... the guy is a star and is still young. Inter would be smart to pick him up, but I hope he stays at City in the EPL. I think they'll be a Top 4 team next year with him. You can't find many Attacking mids out there with that much creativity and a team centric attitude. The guy didn't even get a goal until middway through the season, because he would always be looking for that assist.

Posted Tuesday October 30, 2007, About: Celtic chasing Aston Villa midfielder

he's junk in the EPL, Villa is a top club and he should go back to the Scots league where Scotty McDonald can be a 'World Class Striker'!

They have a lot of talent up there, but you can have a bit more success playing against the likes of Gretna and Inverness than Wigan and Reading (who would be top to mid table SPL clubs) Heck, I would put DC United in the top 4 in the SPL.

Posted Monday October 22, 2007, About: Beckham backs Galaxy coach

He won't be the England coach... thats a joke.

Do you write for the Sun?

Posted Thursday August 16, 2007, About: United answers Beck's yellow card

Becks wants to play for England in the upcoming Friendly and is doing every thing he can to be fully fit. What was wrong with that? Its not like he missed Galaxy home games (Those are what he's paid the big bucks for!)

Posted Wednesday August 15, 2007, About: D-Backs to dump pair of pitchers

I didn't know that Joe Kennedy was on the D-backs... oh wait... he's still on the A's. Crap.

Posted Thursday August 09, 2007, About: McBride named Fulham's captain

Probably in better shape than 75% of the EPL strikers and thats at 35!

Posted Wednesday August 08, 2007, About: Tigers outfielder losing job?

what about when Sheff came? Didn't an OF lose their job?

Posted Wednesday August 08, 2007, About: AC Milan wants Ronaldinho

These rumours spring up every week... either Real Madrid, Barcelona, or Real Madrid says they will stop at nothing to get one of the best players in the World. They never happen.

Posted Wednesday August 08, 2007, About: Palermo pulls plug on deal

Come on Palermo... let him and Barzaghli go to Citeh!

Posted Tuesday August 07, 2007, About: Szetela reaches deal with AS Roma

Please, learn from Totti and DeRossi... Those two are amazing and hopefully will show him how to really play Calcio!

Posted Monday August 06, 2007, About: Trouble brewing in A's clubhouse

hmmmm, ALCS last year? Should've killed the Tigers, but they suddenly got hot.

What did your team do last year?

Posted Tuesday July 10, 2007, About: Biggest American transfer yet?

They offered him a place, he rejected it because his father thinks he can make the Italian National Squad. He'll never be a force there, and if he were on the US team, he's be THE guy getting heaps of attention for bigger playing time on clubs like Man U.

Can't blame him for leaving Jersey.

Posted Monday July 09, 2007, About: Roma's Chivu stiffs Spanish suitors

Totti, Daniele DeRossi, and Chivu are Class players, they just need more of a supporting cast. They have more top level talent than Juve w/o Buffon.

Posted Monday July 09, 2007, About: Rickey wants to play for A's

Bring him back when the rosters expand for a day... Especially if the A's are out of the playoff chase by then.

Posted Sunday July 08, 2007, About: Injury kills Royal's trade value

The A's will get him on a Frank Thomas-esque deal for next year. Or the Angels will overpay ala Hillenbrand.

Posted Friday July 06, 2007, About: Mexican phenom Guardado to Holland

Great Choice, he's got tons of upside... the guy has talent. Wish he was born north of the Rio Grande. Other than PSV, I could only see him moving to a mid-table team in La Liga. He needs more seasoning to go to the big boys (Barca, Sevilla, Madrid, or Valencia)
