    Nope. Pompey when it comes to English leagues. I always follow the EFL but especially the Championship this season as I believe it's the most competitive of all of the European leagues.

    I'll see you in hell Rob Halford!

    well funny, because I love both the DCFC Rams (since they used to play at a stadium called the Baseball Grounds) and also the Ipswich Town Tractor Boys (solely for the nickname)!!!

    No I don't think they did that (which was why I clarified). But Peacock raised their prices (doubled for commercial included from $4.99 - $10.99 a month) and the only thing I had it for was EPL which I really wasn't watching week in and week out. It's a lot to pay in case I wanted to watch a weekend SUCKY EPL match which are often on later on regular rabbit ears TV for free.

    This game is ridiculous! One way traffic and the part time goalkeeper having the game of his life and St. Pauli hits the woodwork and still it's 0-0!!!

    In the 113th minute and if anything Norderstadt are inching a bigger share of the play.

    And a Norderstadt counter had a shot parried out for a corner, which comes to naught. 117'

    The route to the next round will be decided by penalties.

    What the hell was that penalty? Then it's a retake? Ugh...

    THEN HE MISSES!
     
  10. St. Pauli advance.

    Both sides applaud the fans and the fans of both sides applaud back.

    Paramount is awful.
    Peacock is annoying in that it is almost impossible to delete things or stop the "next episode" from starting automatically. It is frigging obnoxious.

    That would be better than the Packers preseason pointy ball on ABC up by me right now.

    Ownership aside, I love Paramount. Champions League, Europa League, Conference League, Serie A. It’s got a ton of content.

    The Paramount panel commentators suck.
    Only Thierry Henry speaks English. Jamie Carragher's scouse is almost undecipherable and who knows what language Micah Richards garbles.
    Kate Abdo (with her ginormous hair) is pretty hot, though.

    Right before Major League... Pickleball
    (since Major League Soccer thought NOT having matches on ESPN was a smart business move).

    The announcers for Serie A games sound like they’re broadcasting from a library and on a tablet there’s no way to minimize the window and watch while multitasking. One of the more frustrating apps I’ve ever dealt with. But they do have the old Beavis & Butt-Head episodes with the music videos so I can’t argue against the content being quality.

    Coppa Italia Palermo away to Cremonese on Paramount+, which sucks a bag of flame-roasted EPLs.

    I use an AppleTV and watch on a TV so don’t have that issue but yeah, the app sucks.

    NWSL weather delay... Because of heat? Has to be 92F? What the rubber fucking dick is this? It's not going to cool down folks. 92 is hardly any better than 95. Just cancel the game then and wait until fall to start the season again.

    Is the game here? There are thunderstorms in the area so if it was lightning it makes sense but otherwise, yeah, weird.
