I miss the Prem action !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hopefully, there will be a lot of drama

Finally watched it.

Been traveling to niece/nephew out-of-state graduations.

The 2nd half and score line nearly brought tears of joy to my eyes

, even though it wasn't Germany's 'A' team. You guys don't know what a result like that (even in a Friendly) along with the Netherlands match a few days earlier means to an American who has been waiting decades for us to seriously compete (and win) against countries who have been doing it a lot longer than us and where football/soccer is #1.

Nice one.

Hey Tob, what happened to my '

' ? I love

football/soccer and even though I express a little nationalistic pride

from time to time, I choose to watch the Prem league rather than MLS soccer.

Just heard the news on over, delighted with that signing.

Him and Coutinho behind a top striker will get plenty of goals.

I'd like us to push on and get Carlos Bacca in as well as Clyne.

Finally!

Firmino is a decent player but he's hardly set the world on fire so far. He's no Suarez anyway.

He looks promising but i think Liverpool will bring in another striker.

I though he was more of an attacking mid anyway is he not? He played there for Hoffenheim enough anyway.

I'm watching Women's world cup soccer today (well, recording it), are any one you guys into that ?

One thing I like is that there is better sportmanship on the field with the women rather than the men, but I wonder if that will change over the course of time as it becomes more commercialized like the men's game and biggger $$ rolls in.
