OT: Soccer Saturday!

Submitted by uncle leo on

Come on guy who used to start these, I don't have near the ability in your formatting and knowledge.

Mostly battles of relegation status today.

The big fish of the day is going on as we speak. Chelsea v Tottenham in the FA Cup. Kane just had a crazy equilizer with some backwards header.

My son scored a total of 1 goal through 2 full years of soccer.

Today he scored 4 goals, and also had a clean sheet for the quarter he played in goal.  I don't know what happened over the summer, but it's like watching a completely different kid play the game.  I'm super pumped, and congrats to your daughter.  Mine's still working on her first...

The Ligue 1 race is still tight: PSG just won to move into first place (80 points), but Monaco (77 points) has two games in hand and takes on Lyon tomorrow.  Both PSG/Monaco are on long winning streaks.

I'd like to see Monaco win the league but wonder if the added grind of Champions' League play may catch up to them.

Not whining, but just giving an honest answer as to where the threads went. I'm involved in a few Facebook groups and forums in which I spend the time researching, formatting and submitting the "today's schedule" I work hard to compile and submit (for free). This is the only community I supply the thread to in which nearly every time it turns into an argument about whether or not it should be a thread. I got to the point to where I thought "why am I doing this for these assholes?". I still do the legwork, and am still willing to provide the service, but honestly, as much as I love being a Michigan man, and am proud to sport the block M, the unregulated keyboard warriors in this atmosphere don't deserve. Sorry, I don't want to sound like a wiener, but I had to "bye Felicia" the soccer day posts. God bless. MGOBREWER out.

Don't worry about the other people who downvote. There is a large number of us that appreciate these threads, and would much rather talk about it compared to threads about Harbaugh meeting the Pope. That shit doesn't matter to me, this is at least a sport happening currently and not a fluff piece.
