>NFL rivaling coverage

so one game a week and listening to old ex players mumble incoherently about things pre and post game?

>>382617

AUGUST 31st IS SO FAR AWAYYYY

(checks schedule)

So Nebraska is playing against Illinois, Purdue, Minnesota, Northwestern, Michigan, Michigan State, Penn State, and Iowa. Wow, after the last two seasons we REALLY got a softball schedule this year, with no Ohio or Wisconsin. Hopefully it doesn't lead to any overconfidence on our part near the latter part of the season.

NFL-Rivaling media coverage.

The whole package, not just the games.

I though I'd check out ESPN to see if I could see something to get the joke, but all I saw for 40 minutes wasa bunch of stuff about an athlete walking from a rape charge.

>>386958
Alabama lost in the last second like a bunch of suckers.

Just like Oregon, now Alabama not only can't go for the National Championship, but can't even compete for the SEC title because of the loss. Personally, as someone whose team has seen its fair share of losses, I'm sympathetic.

>>386960
Hoof, yeah I saw that.
From endzone to endzone, right?

...
...Yeah, I saw it.
Football sucks right now.

Oh look, France might not entirely shit their pantaloons this year (assuming they can stop giving Gourcuff wedgies for five minutes and actually ya know, play as a team).

>Group D
Hahahah, serves you fucking right, Costa Rica!

>>386976
Oh man, we got a pretty hard group. It's gonna be exciting right from the start. But let's be honest, we're gonna be amazing and then completely fall apart in the semi-finals, like always.

>>386976

PFffffttthahahahaa

Awh man.

Group B's looking real good, though.

yes fifa, take my mind off the premiership pleasseeeeee

FUCK YEAH, EAT SHIT SKIP

>>387010
Well US lost its taste for the game after last time so nobody would likely care, even less since the whole Beckam thing went nowhere. What is it with pro soccer groups getting the older Superstars and attempt to use them as a promo tool instead of actual up and coming or you know boosting the college level. I had cousins that played all the way into college, until it dried up.

>>387288
>since the whole Beckam thing went nowhere.

Compare pre-Becks MLS to current MLS.
The league's just 15 years old and its fucking leaping bounds.
Its baby steps. The bigwigs don't want another burnout like the last three attempts at a pro league in the states.

>>387292
Yea okay, been out of it since cuz graduated and therefore no reason to watch or pay attention to MLS stuff and I can't get any converge in my area anymore.

>>387010
Meaning?
Well, they don't fucking deserve it. Pile of mediocre players, you can't expect too much from their soccer.

>>387294
Isn't it on over-air television like NBC in the US? Last I checked it was...

Used to be but other than a few of the cup games we don't get much else anymore.

>>387313
Well, that might be cos the season just ended?
The playoffs were on all last month...

May I add, that what Manchester City and their New York club are plannng to do, the american league is going to take a really big step up. Just saying.

>>387314
nah I mean it just doesn't get broadcast on my local anymore. Sorry if I"m being unclear. Do any stations like radio or internet broadcast carry the games? Habit I picked up from the grandparents during their days watching college basketball when they preferred the radio announcer to the television one. Also leaves me free to do other things.

>bayern draws arsenal in the knockout stages
>AGAIN

the rest of the matches, if you haven't seen it already

My team already predestined to win cause we gots the Wizard.

I don't normally follow football but is anyone tracking the odds on the superbowl? I may be a plebeian but holy shit, this is so one sided that there's a real question in my kind of whether there's ulterior motives here

>No perfect.
>Sherman denied his place in history.

>>389059

I was thinking this, too. Not necessarily foul play, though. Just the odds. They take bets on EVERYTHING, and the chances of any of the following happening during a Super Bowl are extremely small:

Safety
Two-point Conversion
Kickoff Return for Touchdown
Shutout in First Half

Yet all those happened. In practicality, the betting odds for those would probably have been hundreds to one against. There are some people out there who made "stupid" bets that just made shitloads of money.


The thing is, I don't think it's really possible to "rig" something like this. For example, you couldn't possibly pay Peyton Manning enough money to make him intentionally give the worst performance of his career. Any player at that level is going to be ridiculously competitive and egoistic, and he's so incredibly rich that $10 million would be a pittance. What are they going to do? Bribe him with a billion dollars? Take his family hostage? Threaten to break his knees? That's silly talk.

So as much as my cynical, miserly personality wants to believe that all professional sports contests are fixed, I can't fathom how it would actually work.

>>389077
Well, at that level you don't hold money over somebody, you hold the lifestyle over them. Power isn't about money, it's about what you can make other people do for you.

Then again, this is all just vile speculation, completely unprovable. Maybe they all tried the weed before the game or some shit.

>Arsenal v BayMu

NO. ITS NOT TIME YET. ITS TOO EARLY.
THIS MATCHUP'S GOOD ENOUGH TO BE THE FINAL.
WHY'D IT HAVE TO BE QUARTERS?!

>>389772
It was a weird-ass game.

>>389773
Oh, totes.

It's kinda disgusting how the German media deals with the whole Hoeneß thing. They portray him as some kid of martyr, whose sentence was unjustly harsh. He's a fucking criminal. That's why he's in jail now. In fact, he was the one actively going for the jail sentence to prevent more stuff from getting dug up. That's how much of a fucking criminal he is.

>>390473
Still gonna miss him though. RIP Ulibear.
