Maybe I'm in the minority, but VAR has been pretty spot on every time they've used it. I damn sure like them getting another look at potential penalty calls or reviewing a penalty call that should be overturned. Offside as well. Get it right.

So somehow this got a 2nd season, which started 6/22. Weird though, first episode was 2 hours, first episode seemed to be continuation of where story left off at end of season 1, but 2nd hour seemed more a history look at Gordon Cooper and potential links he had to treasure hunters...

Yeah Isles fans are pretty happy now, aside from missing out on Grubauer. Rumor is we asked for their 1st but they didn't want to do that (assuming that didn't have Orpik attached). I'm going to laugh if Orpik gets bought out by Colorado and we end up signing him again for cheap.

It was pretty clear he was getting mugged by 2 guys in the box. They're obviously pretty inconsistent with calling that type of stuff though, so I'd go so far as to believe they won't even review every one, even though they should. Until they actually just start handing out penalties every...

Yup, wish the best for both, I thought the Orpik contract would be a killer by now, although I'll give him credit for holding up just fine throughout these playoffs and being a part of us winning the Cup. Frankly I think this is a win. Plenty of cap space now to sign Carlson and Kempny, give...

Capitals Acquire Second Round Pick in the 2018 NHL Draft from Colorado

Love what David Strathairn is doing with the character. Pretty crazy to think this was him 26 years ago.

Fifa does need to eventually put an emphasis on stopping the holding/grabbing that defenders get away with in the box on free kicks/corners. Pretty amazing replay of 2 Swiss defenders not even looking for the ball just virtually tackling Serbian attacker while he's trying to get a head to a cross.

What a strike. Entertaining game here between Serbia and the Swiss.

Nigeria throws Messi and Argentina a lifeline.

Credit to Brazil for finding a way through twice in the end. Clutch finish by them.

Meza was fucking terrible today. Should have scored at least once on that sitter in the 1st half (that was him, I'm 99% sure)...then a weak effort off a decent ball from Higuain in the 2nd half.

A lot of the people who were "Fire Trotz" before the playoffs are having their cake and eating it too...we won the Cup and he's out as coach. I'm more middle of the road, but I know a lot of the guys, especially the D men love Rierden.

Dybala needs to be starting for them in midfield. Although he seems to have issues fitting in with the national team for whatever reason. A lot of where the game was lost today was that Croatia just abused Argentina in the midfield. Modric with the absolute class stunner.

Pretty sad how Argentina is playing given some of the talent on that team, even beyond Messi. Has so much more to work with than a Ronaldo does with Portugal but can't get the results.

Iran deserved a little better, despite Spain's possession numbers.

If they have to rely on Kane for all the finishing it could hurt.

England going to underwhelm as usual?

I was mainly trolling, I think VAR will help get rid of pretty much any complaint we will see.

Yeah, wonder if it was just over money or what was discussed a few times, a desire to change up the rest of the coaching staff.

We'll have to wait to see who all stays at Madrid, then if they beat Bayern or whoever else again in Champs League for them to invent new things to whine about.

Another good VAR penalty. Working as intended so far.

Neymar...just take a rip. Great result for the Swiss, missed opportunity for Brazil.

Brazil just going to miss chance after chance I guess.

I'm expecting 3+ goals from Brazil today.

Huge result for Mexico, that group gets a little more interesting for sure.

Mexico is the reason we aren't in this tournament? Pretty sure the US is the reason we aren't in this tournament. If you can't get even a draw against T&T you don't deserve to be there.

Messi will bounce back. Probably.

Going to take a lot to see a better game during the group stages. 2 wonderstrikes, too.

Okay yeah, the banana > all.

de Gea had zero chance on that. That's as good a free kick as you'll ever see.

Stupid foul there. Why even give Ronaldo even a chance at doing that? Sick free kick.

Pace a bit slower than I was expecting for this game. Obviously Ronaldo has made his mark, with some surprising aid from de Gea

Iran with the definition of stealing a win.

This. We could easily sit in a room with a sweet setup and watch every one of these greats mentioned back to back as long as we had enough beer to hydrate.

Saw some tweets from other wives of former Senators...they all seemed to be not surprised by this, and sided with EK wife. Also, as many weird stories as there are in hockey, it's still full of angels compared to the NFL.

Only 6 pages. Not even sure this rates mid tier.

My favorite memory of the '94 WC had to be Bulgaria upsetting Germany. I actually was rooting for Germany at the time (US was out, I had lived in Germany for a year and a half and had just gotten back to US the year before)...but the two goals Bulgaria scored to comeback and win were absolutely...

Seriously wtf is going on with Spain? Buddy texted me the news this morning and was just crazy. Thank goodness they made the right pick and it's coming here.
