OT: English Premier Returns
I know it doesn't have the same impact as the return of football (American), but there is something so warming and comfortable to be able to turn on the TV on weekends with a cup of joe and watch Prem league.
Curious to see how Man U does with some new management at the helm and if LC can keep up nearly the level they had last season.

On TV. Had to pull up the online stream and saw the CNBC icon. Wasn't even close to guessing that station.

Should have known better about starting a soccer thread. The resident soccer hater already got me with a down vote.

What a difference a year makes. The Foxes learn what it means to become the prey.
First defending champion in the Premier league era to lose on opening day. To a team that had 0 viable substitutes, a caretaker manager, one big fat question mark in regarding team ownership.
Hull is the odds on favorite to drop this year, and they go into Leicester and knock out the reigning champs. Awesome.
Hull supporters should start a Kickstarter campaign to get some quality substitutes. Lol.

I forgot about this with the Olympics going on. Already some intriguing things happening with Hull beating the former champs; apparently it's been four years since a promoted team won its first game.

This really should have been the year for Spurs. New managers at nearly all the big clubs. But we haven't added enough depth. ah well

To be fair, they havent played a game yet but Arsenal is already mathematically eliminated from winning the title. Because Arsenal.

it's interesting to see the different stadiums. Watching Everton vs Spurs on the TV, in what I would consider a "normal" multi-deck stadium, and streaming the Burnley game that's in this little dinky stadium with a single deck on the sides. The stadium capacities differ so much.

Is there a way to watch on Xbox One? Don't see any games listed on the NBC Sports app (the website has live games, the app just shows commentary/replays and highlights).

I'm logged in and can watch all the Olympics and a bunch of racing stuff live, just no EPL games showing up - but then the NBC Sports website works fine. Weird.

Update: No luck.
"We're sorry for the inconvenience and understand that this is frustrating. The Premier League is not supported by Xbox One, Windows 10, or Samsung Smart TVs as this is out of our control. You can continue to watch on www.nbcsports.com, Android/iOS devices, and on other connected devices.
Again we apologize.

And I hate the Yankees! I have colleagues from Manchester who've told me that real Mancunians are City fans and that the out of towners and band wagon fans are for United. Don't know if it is true, but that's what I've been told.

as they buy a lot of their talent these days, though home grown talent in top flight soccer is by and large nonexistant now.
I'm from good old Grand Rapids MI, so I guess that puts me right in the middle of 'Out of Towner' but I've been a Man U fan for nearly 20 years. When I was starting to learn about them (and European soccer in general) United's best players were all home grown: David Beckham, the Neville brothers, Paul Scholes, Nicky Butt, Ryan Giggs.
United was the first club I knew about and I loved the jerseys, Paul Scholes, Roy Keane, Jaap Stam, David Beckham and Ruud VanNistelrooy. Loved Sir Alex and the whole United aura.
I get why people don't like them. I also get that I don't give a shit :)

Should be a great season!
Best managers in the world are in BPL now.
ManU reloaded.
Pep with City!

Beat West Brom!

It's crazy how short the soccer offseason is. A lot of guys were playing in the Euro in June/early July, and now they're back for another 10-month season.
August 13th, 2016 at 11:35 AM ^
First goal of the match goes in for West Brom at the 74' mark...ugh. And arg.

Hart on the bench for Shit-eh. What a crappy summer for him. Choke away a chance to advance out of the group stage at the Euros, and it looks like the rumors of him not fitting in with what Guardiola wants in keepers are true.
