The "Thoughts That Don't Require Their Own Thread" Thread V

At this rate we should catch the Revs SSS threads!

 

I'm watching Penarol vs River Plate on GolTV, Cristian Techera (21 yr old winger/attacking mid) is ripping Penarol to shreds. I hop on to Transfermarkt and it lists his value at 75,000 pounds.

Looking at MLS Transfers for 2013, looks like the league has only brought in 2 players from Uruguayan clubs this season as opposed to 9 from Brazil and 7 from Argentina. Looks like we should be looking at more Uruguayan clubs for value. This kid looks good.

 

Send an email to Burnsie.

 

Don't know about Bob, but Jon was at the game last night.

 

Bob was at UFC. They showed him on TV sitting with Lorenzo Fertitta (UFC owner).

 

Theoretically he could've been at both, since usually UFC fights start later than the Revs would end. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

 

Yesterday's UFC event in Boston started at 4:30pm.

Right, but that's usually the undercard, isn't it? I know when I've watched past events, the "main" fights don't start until pretty late.

Edit: The main card didn't start until 8pm. Even then, there's a chance he could've only shown up for the main event. Who knows.

Well either way its impossible to be in two places for a 7:30 game and an 8pm main event.

 

While that is indeed correct, that's not quite what I was saying. The main card itself started at 8pm, but consisted of 6 fights. It's entirely possible he might've only shown up for the main event fight which would have started probably around 10 pm.

I'm not defending the guy, to be honest I could care less where he was, but it's entirely possible he could've been at the Revs game and shown up for the main event at the UFC event.

 

He was shown on tv pretty early on the main card telecast. I think it was around 8:30 or so.

 

I actually ran into Mr. Kraft when I was leaving the Garden on Saturday night and asked him if he knew the score of the Revs game. He said that we won 2-0 and that Agudelo scored. No joke. I was pleasantly surprised to say the least.

 

RevsFanDan, your rebuttal?

 

I expect him to know the score and who scored, etc. Yes, I still believe him to be apathetic, uncaring, unfeeling and one who pretty much believes that "Soccah" is for the goils...!

I don't expect him to be some shadow in the foxboro wasteland when it comes to caring about the Revs!
18 years of irrelevance among Footie fans in the Boston area is proof enough to make everything I've ever said about him still hold true.

He's certainly no friend of Soccer..no matter what you may believe or feel to be true, just because you like the guy..! =)

 

ps. I won't even begin to start vomiting on the fact that he'd go to UFC over a Revs game!

#FBK and the very ground he makes contact with...

 

Not happy that someone passed away because of Bob Kraft...but elated that the widow in question could win this case and possibly own the Revs!! Anything and anyone is better than Bob Kraft!

I'm shocked that TeamOps confronted somone in a manner that is "confrontational, harsh, unprofessional, disrespectful, and antagonistic"

 

Lot of comments posted under that article claim TeamOps not affiliated with Pats.....

Huh?

 

....or pretends not to know, to get away from an inconvenient truth.

 

MLS Faces Tough Questions on TV versus Tickets

http://www.ussoccerplayers.com/2013/08/mls-faces-tough-questions-on-tv-versus-tickets.html

Something I learned in the article:

"MLS teams share 30 percent of their home gates with the rest of the league, a revenue split that helps prop up the stragglers in the group and pay the league’s centrally held contracts."

 

Looks like a weak case.
