On The Fly 6 Posted March 6, 2013 Author Posted March 6, 2013 Big game this next weekend...Liverpol v. Tottenham! Both Suarez and Bale are up for player of the year so I'm sure this head to head game will be a big deal!

stlfisher Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Anyone else attend the Chelsea/Man city game last night? Quite the crowd and an enteraining game for sure. It was the largest sporting event ever held at Busch staduim.
Greasy B Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 A buddy who wanted to take his daughter told me scalper/brokers gobbled all the tickets almost instantly. Quadrupled the cost. Not sure if that's true but the parasites do it for almost all the concerts at the better venues in town. His father touches the Claw in spite of Kevin's warnings and breaks two legs just as a thunderstorm tears the house apart. Kevin runs away with the Claw. He becomes captain of the Greasy Bastard, a small ship carrying rubber goods between England and Burma. Michael Palin, Terry Jones, 1974
stlfisher Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 yeah, the game sold out in about 5 minutes and the brokers/scalpers were selling tickets at a much higher rate. they need to get a better handle on that.
On The Fly 6 Posted July 10, 2013 Author Posted July 10, 2013 That's too bad. Nice to see fellow soccer fans on the forum through! On a positive note, the US is looking good for WC qualifications and in the Gold Cup. It's nice to see Donovan back on the pitch.

ollie Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 We can also thank Mexico for their recent showing. I always liked Donavan and Dempsy together. With Jozy playing better we look like we might win some games! lol "you can always beat the keeper, but you can never beat the post" There are only three things in life that are certain : death, taxes, and the wind blowing at Capps Creek!
On The Fly 6 Posted July 19, 2013 Author Posted July 19, 2013 Looks like it might be Mexico and the US in the Gold Cup final!

On The Fly 6 Posted July 21, 2013 Author Posted July 21, 2013 US took down El Salvador 5-1 to move on to the semifinal. I wish I had the money to go to Dallas to watch them play!

Jerry Rapp Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 I think soccer is a good game, but it will never catch on in the USA until they get a bona fide league with American players. How about that Phil Mickelson, a true American won the British Open (sorry "on the fly", but you started it on the Open thread). And golf is definitely a sport. Have you ever tried it?
Nick Williams Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 Bona fide? What do you call the MLS? Which is ALL American players with a few exceptions, especially more home grown than a lot of other leagues. Don't start the sport argument though, because by definition high school marching band is a sport........ And no one wants to have that! - Nick
