  1. In order to pry sale away from the CWS it would require more than what the bluejays would want to give up. The guy is a perennial cy young contender and among the top 3 most dominating pitchers in the league. IMO as a neutral, the deal would have to be along the lines of Alford, Harris, Reid Foley, Vlad Jr, Pentecost for sale, if not more than that. TBH the most likely trade partner for the Sox is Texas. Gallo, Profar/Brinson, and Tate would get a deal done I think. As a Yankee Fan I am happy with the Chapman trade. Our Farm just got a helluva lot stronger. While I like Torres and love Mckinney as prospects I would have preferred Schwarber for Chapman straight up, as Scharwber at yankee stadium would be almost unfair. Underated component of the Chapman deal is getting back Adam Warren who we picked up for starlin Castro in the summer. We have fleeced Theo once again
  2. Christ Lazio is in deep S***. http://www.espnfc.us/blog/the-toe-poke/65/post/2914458/lazio-sell-just-11-season-tickets-on-first-day-of-sale-ahead-of-serie-a-campaign Lazio fans don't seem very excited for the 2016-17 season and their enthusiasm reached a new low with only a handful of season tickets sold on the opening day of sale -- according to La Gazzetta dello Sport. The Serie A club started selling season tickets on Monday, but the lines remained dead as they registered only 11 completed applications by the end of the day. Last year, a club record low of 12,800 season tickets were sold for Lazio's league fixtures at the 72,698 capacity Stadio Olimpico and, on the evidence of Monday, a new record is likely to be set this season. Several thousand Lazio fans took to the streets last week to protest against club president Claudio Lotito, after the bungled appointment of Marcelo Bielsaand things don't look like improving any time soon.
  3. i dont blame him. Lazio is a horribly run club, and lotito is a scam artist. They will only get worse after Candreva gets sold, and I hope they get relegated
  4. atta boy milos. He has shown so much grit and perseverance in this tournament.
  5. No way in hell Juve will sell him. I guarantee, GUARANTEE that this will not go through.
  6. Rooting for anybody but Portugal. I would never hear the end of it from my neighbors if they win!
  7. Honestly this match is a win-win. Fed is an awesome guy and probably the best of all time and deserves another wimbledon crown. On the flip Raonic in a major final would be awesome to and would help grow the game in Canada.
  8. Ricardo Lockette on the Player's Tribune. Worth reading. http://www.theplayerstribune.com/am-i-about-to-die/
  9. For a team that was missing 5 starters to take the world champions to penalties how can you not be happy and proud? While the result was obviously the opposite of what I wanted, this tournament restored my faith in Italian Football. I really feel for guys like Giaccherini, the guy would die for the shirt. He may not have the class and yes his touch may let him down sometimes(like it did today) I would take him on my team anyday. Its a shame he will not be on the WC team as he is a bulldog on the pitch. I hope that those that did not make the team or future members of the Azzurri, look at this team for inspiration as this is exactly how a national team should play. For each other, for the fans, for the shirt. No words needed
  10. Saw Independence Day: Resurgence. Despite all of the poor reviews it got, I actually enjoyed it. Now It won't win an academy award but if you have nothing to do on a gloomy day, its worth seeing. I wont spoil it, but the storyline is very similar to the first one. "We will not go quietly into the night!" President Whitemore
  11. Never doubted it for a second. As much I as dislike Eder, he was fantastic today. Aside from Thiago Motta, there is not a single person who I was unhappy with today. It was a clinic. Bring on Germany. Never have they beaten us competitively, and that will not start on Saturday. I will be parking myself inside the Vancouver Alpine Club on Vic Drive on Saturday to watch the match. Also I came to ask a you guys a question. Over the course of Football History who are the top 5 footballing nations. In my opinion there are 4 nations above all else; Brazil, Italy, Germany, and Argentina. I was having a tough time picking a fifth team however. Spain didn't win a major tournament till Euro 2008, France only has 1 WC and 2 EC to their name, the Netherlands despite having some of the all time greats have only won 1 major tournament, England 1 WC and have never been to a European final. The country I have decided to go with is Uruguay. Before I get attacked look at the stats. 2 WC's 20 years apart, won at least 1 copa america in every decade since inception with the exception of the 70's and 00's. They are a stable of not only South American Football but world football, always a team you hate to play against. My top 5 1. Brazil 2. Italy 3. Germany I believe the top three are interchangeable arguments can be made for all three to hold the crown 4.Argentina 5.Uruguay I would love to hear you opinions and you top 5 footballing nations
  12. I was complaining as a fan of football. He was horrible. And I for one do not buy that bernardeschi fouled Murphy. Murphy is 6'3 200 pounds and he went down that easily? Hell Berna is 170 pounds soaking wet, il mio culo that is a foul, Murphy has thrity pounds on the guy! On top of it he got part of the ball.
  13. Both the pitch and the referee were an absolute disgrace today. How can you play a match at an International Competition on a surface like that? Not to mention the referee pulling out cards from is a$$, calling the weakest of fouls, slowing the game down. Where did they find this guy? A day of shame for UEFA. Well done to Ireland though, took advantage of italy's B team, the horrible conditions which played into their strategy, and where the benefactor of many suspect calls. I hope they beat france down physically because I hate the french. As for Italy's match up with Spain, I air on the confident side as I know that there is no team that is overpowered in this tournament. When playing, this is the best back line in the world
  14. SUPER PUMPED for tomorrow, waking up at 6 for the Gigi and the Azzurri! I am predicting a 3-0 win, goals from Candreva, my boy insigne, and Parolo.
  15. My childhood idol retired today. After 22 seasons. Truly the definition of a target man. Alas while I always wanted to play like this legend, my height stopped me from being a target man like him. Will never forget him against Ukraine in the 2006 WC Thanks for the memories Luca!!
  16. And that's exactly what he does, let's go KL7!
  17. Not really an appropriate place to put this but I really need to get this off my chest. I had a ball game tonight and my prospective college coach, came in all the way from Ontario( not just for me,Was here all weekend). I **** the ******* bed. Two errors, picked off, on top of it I popped up to end the game swinging on a s*** pitch 3-1 curveball with tying run and winning run on 3 and 2 respectively. One of those games. Having been in contact with me, the program was willing to pay for part of my education. For my family it means a lot. Do you think he will still offer. He did not seem impressed at all after the game all he said was that he would keep in touch. I'm starting to get really scared
  18. Whoever picks up su'a will be getting the steal of the draft. The guy is so damn good. Personally I see him as a safety opposed to OLB. The only reason why he put on weight was to play a hybrid in a stupid ******* system that didn't work. If he plays last year as a safety he is a top 10 pick
  19. Seattle gets denvers 1st and 3rd
  20. Your right, I have no idea what I was thinking lol. Treadwell was a great pick, the guy is a baller
