vicman Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 Originally posted by sauvee88 I'm not so sure he'll be good in England.... look at Veron. they got a shitload of mid fielders. giggs, veron, scholes, butt, keane and even used solskjaer in his position. what i would do with that $$ is go buy an experienced defender. no doubt they can score, but their weekneses in defence were exposed in the matches against real madrid.

You move Keane back, he's an asshole, he'll be perfect in defence and he'll stay fresher. And you don't need two hard nosed guys in midfield - Butt is more than enough, Scholes can be an ass too at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full over we have the best talent. We just migrate ball players to add a little flavor and to give back to those countries that have a less fotunate professional sports league.

Canada beat the US for the gold medal in the last olympics. also, the concept of "team" is sometimes overlooked and everyone just focuses on the individual players.

Yes, apparently Ken has lost 5 years of his life, he still believes it's 1998 and the Chzec Republic just won the Gold at Nagano. :laugh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revaluation Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 Originally posted by vicman but whose roster would at the end be the best? it's not like you can put every American player on the roster at the same time. d-uh. so basically you take the All Star roster and then cut it in half. That would be an amazing team. The only truly outstanding player from another country is Ichiro. The rest have been good but are not as consistent. Pedro is struggling right now. Pudge's career is probably over (though he'll probably be in the All Star game anyway). And the biggest problem is Bonds. You gonna pitch around Bonds to get to who? Alex Rodriguez, Sosa, Puljos (is he from America?), Giambi? In fact, I might even take the 3rd string team from Madagascar if they had Bonds.

zaguero Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 Originally posted by revaluation Ok, then where the fuck (pronounced fook, apparently) did the word 'soccer' come from. Perhaps its 'american' for 'can't take a hit'. And baseball does not 'come from cricket' anymore than football or hockey 'comes from' soccer. If you think about sports they all have some relation. There's a goal/area/plate which a defense defends as an offense tries to put some obect in a place that will score them points.So what if Europens invented everything? Our country's only 200 + years old. Europe's been around for thousands of years and they managed only one sport that anybody really gives a shit about....and then they're not even the best at it. The word soccer comes from the shortening and alteration of Association Football, when the sport became official way back before 1900. Anyway, the word became popular in the US since another word was needed to distinguish between the sport played with the feet and the other which is commonly known as football here in the US.
