I'd add Jedi to that group.
The story on the Revs website seems to indicate that this "service" consists of one train from Boston to Foxboro and one train from Providence to...
Does the fact that Seattle's attendance has faded since its glory days beg the question of whether Atlanta's attendance will do the same at some...
OK. I thought it had to do with the attitudes of sports fans toward their rivals.
And the reason why the National Amateur Cup was started in 1923 is that the amateurs were getting dominated by the pros in the Open Cup and needed...
No. Fall River Marksmen, Bethlehem Steel, St. Louis Stix, St. Louis Simpkins, Philadelphia Nationals, Brookhatten, New Bedford Whalers and the...
That NASL attitude of telling tradition to take a hike is exactly what I fear is happening.
I know two North Carolina graduates and basketball fans who both say they'd rather see Duke lose than see UNC win.
To me, the magic of the USOC isn't about the lower-division teams. It's about the fact that the USOC is one of the few links still remaining to...
They did have interest in seeing MLS teams play in the USOC, but the games that have been played so far didn't (and never would have in the past),...
Read about Erskine in Roger Kahn's "The Boys of Summer". Erskine was a great, great person, the best person among those 1950s Dodgers and maybe...
I couldn't see the upper deck on TV, but the lower deck looked underpopulated. Was the roof closed for purposes of air conditioning? I've been...
Meanwhile, back at the ranch....Has anybody seen an attendance figure for Sunday's Atlanta-Philadelphia game? I've looked at every online source...
Yikes, this is turning into the very same discussion that's going on in the pro/rel thread about Manchester United's attendance.
This year's CCC results have rendered Leagues Cup even more pointless than it already was.
Don't forget that Argentina has four more World Cup qualifiers in September and October.
I would think that there's a limit to how often you can thumb your nose at the people who are paying you $20 million a year (and that's just...
Isn't the fact that Miami has to release Messi for the Copa going to make it less eager to release him for the Olympics, where it isn't required...
Although I think that replacing men's soccer with futsal and beach soccer would be a good idea (it least you'd get the world's best players in...
Huh? The Olympics started including a men's soccer tournament in 1900, 30 years before there was a World Cup (before there was a FIFA, for that...
Not an apt comparison. The women's Olympic tournament is for full senior national teams. It's not a U-23 tournament like the men.
Between Season Pass, Leagues Cup and engineering financial deals so that it can stack Miami's roster, I'm struggling to stay interested in MLS.
I don't know numbers and I don't know England or Japan, but I can say that the last two summers, in the course of several visits to Amsterdam, I...
Agreed. Except for women's soccer, which only goes back to 1996, the Olympics to me is largely a track meet.
Can the USWNT continue a streak? Since women's soccer was added to the Olympics in 1996, the winner has never been the same team that won the...
