  1. Dallas Buyers club, Matthew McConaughy is brilliant, worth an oscar. Despite the seriousness of the subject here, the director found a way to include humor, with Rayon's extravagance and his clashes with outspoken Ron, which helps the movie from falling into melodrama.
  2. The Sopranos, The Walking Dead, Revolution, Continuum, Games of Thrones, Spartacus, House of Cards New ones: Helix, True Detective, Klondike
  3. Falcao will follow hyperbaric chamber treatment to accelerate his torn ACL healing. He wants to be ready for the WC. Cabaye signed by PSG it is believed to be a deal around €20 millions + €5 millions in bonuses.
  4. Dead at birth by sponsorship. See PSG with QTA (Qatar tourism company) paying €150 millions to €250 millions/year to PSG through 2016 with retroactive effect on the 2012 season to erase the €100 millions deficit. Bayern Munich is supposed to open offices/stores in the US and Asia to generate extra income. Platini was one of the greatest on the field, a joke running UEFA, see how he put up the financial fairplay and his rebuffing of instant replay (no more game fixing !).
  5. He was tackled from behind, ACL tear has just been confirmed. I blame Ranieri for that, what in the hell did he had to play him vs a 4th divison club ? Now Radamel is out for the rest of the championship and for the WC.
  6. I don't know about Holmgren but I remember Parcells saying that he coached the pokes because Jerruh keeps on meddling and that he liked it because it proved him that Jerruh was concerned. Allen never put his nose anywhere under Shanahan's tenure. About Schottenheimer, in 2001 the Director of player personnel was the weasel and everybody knew that we had no real GM and therefore Marty was the de facto GM/HC. Allen had a previous record as a true GM with the Bucs contrary to Marty and the weasel, that's why I said I never saw a GM subordinate to his HC like that. Snyder kept on playing with terminology mostly to fit the weasel in: Director of Player Personnel, Executive VP of Player Personnel/Football Operations, VP of Football Operations (Mendes). Now with Allen we have the GM title officially back since Charly Casserly. I think these questions of terminology has plagued this franchise and contributed to its dysfunctionality. When I see this dysfunctional franchise structure ran by a fantasy owner playing with terminology, loving to have his yes man around and reversing the chain of command, I'm getting pessimistic. I hope future will prove me wrong.
  7. That's what I fear the most in a matter of speaking, 20 years of fantasy football. I'm not sold on Allen/Gruden, but still hope to be proven wrong.
  8. We paid Shanahan $7 millions/year and Allen had nothing to say or to do about it. That's the first time I saw a GM being subordinated to someone below him, by his owner. What kind of message are you sending here ? Having Gruden as a head coach is no guarantee of success, his NFL record is not impressive at all, only time will tell if he was the right choice or not. Cowher was never a candidate he said he doesn't want to coach again, and keeps on repeating it year in year out since 2007. Same thing with Gruden. Snyder made Shanahan the HC with the most powers ever seen in the NFL, even more than Bellicheat. What did Bruce did about this, except signing his contract and agreeing with Snyder, nothing. Sometimes I was wondering is he still alive ?, what was he doing ?
  9. I'm not enthusiastic about him, because he is Snyder's yes man and he was a GM subordinate to his HC. From now on we will see if his house is built with cardboards or with solid concrete & steel.
  10. Real Madrid and Barcelona face European Union investigation
  11. PSG pushing hard to sign Mata and Pogba this winter. Both won't be eligible to play the CL, the strategy being to be able to rest Matuidi-Motta-Verratti. The Mata trade is pending on the Pastore (Inter)/Lavezzi/Ménez (Monaco, Juventus) trades.
  12. Those corrupted FIFA pricks changed the draw to favor France, we should have played in the D group and Italy in the E.
  13. Yes it is, you'll improve only facing the very best. Germany is too strong, you can get the best out of Ghana. Portugal stands by Ronaldo and he never shined during WCs. A draw might be enough.
  14. Can't believe Switzerland got a better rating than Italy and England, this is a big joke.
  15. I do agree with you GHH, I was also a huge fan of the brazilian squad in Mexico, Ajax, and the Dutch team (Cruyff, Neeskens, Rep, Krol, Rensenbrink). It was a heartache to see them lose to the Germans. Then we lost to the Germans in Sevilla 1982, Schumacher bloody drugged b......!. Unfortunately we never had the chance (when we were on top) to play them for revenge during European championship or World Cup. I must confess that they'll be hard to beat in Brazil, they have young very talented players, we have mostly scums .
  16. I think we'll be home first GHH, Brazilians want their revenge, because we've been tormenting them way too much during World Cups. This is the perfect place and time to kick us out. Only question: what kind of trick will Blatter use to fix the draw ? Old techniques such as hot & cold balls, vibrations, or something new.
  17. FIFA Hacked: Fake World Cup Draws Released FIFA confirmed Thursday morning that they have been the target of a hacked system, who had published on its website fake (ghosts)world cup groups and draws. The attacked confirmed on FIFA website by a telephone spokesman reads "We were attacked. However, the draw has not been made by FIFA, since the procedure of the lottery will be defined by December 3." Following the implementation of the process, tests will be made by FIFA to prepare in detail the draw.
  18. Dez Bryant sideline sound Goodell and his boys are ridiculous here, how about letting us hear what Witten and Ware shout at him on the sideline ? Scariest players in NFL history Honorable mention: Tony RomoWell, he's only scary for Cowboys fans when the game is in his hands. But that has to count, right? All right, time for the list of the six scariest players in NFL history. Without further ado ...
