Didn't know you were a Spain fan Iowatreat. Hope you partied it up as much as I did today. Holy hangover.

I dunno. The german title winning teams had an average starting lineup age of 28, 26.5, 27.75, 29, 25, 25. This team's starting lineup averaged 24.8 of age. So in two years they'll be right in the middle of german winning teams on average age, we'll have tied the longest german title draught, and Loew will be coming under a lot of fire. If the German's can't get it done in 2014 I might start believing that Schweini and Lahm are too nice and well rounded human beings to have the douchey competitiveness necessary to win it all.

Basically, I am a US fan first (obviously). But after that, of the major teams left, I root for Spain and Germany as 2a and 2b. Really, I am a huge Torres fan, but have also come to enjoy a lot of their players and their style of play. I love the possession game they play.
But on the flip side, I loathe Italy and Portugal. So yesterday, even though I couldn't watch the entire game, was about as fantastic of an outcome as I could have hopef for. I haven't celebrated a lot yet, but certainly will this week.

That's what's up. Now I'm in the process for saving up for 2014 so I can see this magic for myself first hand. Watching the game yesterday with an Italian buddy of mine was quite fun on my end. But hey it was payback for Miami knocking off OKC lol.

I'm absolutely going in 2014. I can stay with a friend, so I won't get crushed by the hotel mark-up at least.

Got reserved seating tickets for Santos Laguna vs. Rayados Monterrey tonight. Should be loud and fun.

Why is it so hard for teams to not pick terrible kits? Union doesn't have much money to work with but the jersey's are always awesome.

Not that anybody cares but Spain U19 just won a shootout over France with the iconic score of 4-2. Now onto the finals on Sunday against Greece. With a win they would also pull off the Euro double like the Senior team & make this 5 straight Euro titles if you include the U21 title from last year.

Thiago Silva and Ibra to PSG. That team on paper should crush the rest of France.

Especially if they add Modric to.
Zlatan/Gameiro
Lavezzi-Pastore-Menez/Nene
Motta/Matuidi-Modric/Verratti
Maxwell-Silva/Sakho-Alex/Lugano-Jallet
Sirigu
With Lille, Montepier and Lyon losing their best players? Ligue 1 could be wrapped up by christmas.

I'm really excited to see Chelsea/PSG in a few weeks at Yankee Stadium. Hopefully everyone travels. I want to see Mata and Hazard play together especially.

I'm waiting and if it sounds like they will be putting out good teams, I will probably spring for a ticket on stubhub.

If the dates were the same then I would really be a little creeped out.
