Man City and AC Milan play here at the end of July. Why do I get the least appealing game? I have almost no interest in seeing those 2 teams.

I thought it was Man City and Olimpiakos. (Not that that would make it any better, other than that AC Milan is my least favorite team in the world)
 
Re: World Soccer XXV - the run up to the World Cup

Senator Bob Casey has formally asked FIFA to move the 2022 World Cup to the USA.
 
Re: World Soccer XXV - the run up to the World Cup

Mexico : USA :: (college hockey team 1) : (college hockey team 2)

Opinion on Team 1 and Team 2?
 
Re: World Soccer XXV - the run up to the World Cup

I'll bite.

Mexico Soccer : USA Soccer :: Clarkson Hockey : UAH Hockey


It's a historical regional power who's never quite gotten over the hump to win much on the (inter)national stage, compared to a lovable loser who's from the wrong part of the world to really be that good at the sport.
 
Re: World Soccer XXV - the run up to the World Cup

Mexico in the knockout stage : United States in the knockout stage :: Buffalo Bills in the Super Bowl : Denver Broncos in the Super Bowl

One of them has a good record of getting there and promptly losing. One of them has had some success a while back, but really is much more likely to lose once they get there. Neither of which can be considered a consistent success.

Yeah, but the difference is that the USA has technically gotten closer AND is probably more likely to get closer at some point in the future (even if they stumble out the gate half the time and probably won't ever actually get there).

So I'd say... Mex:USA::Northeastern:Notre Dame or Miami.
 
Re: World Soccer XXV - the run up to the World Cup

Dumb question- why do we hear so little about the CONCACAF Champions? I was thinking about it last night, and looked it up this morning to find out that it's a pretty big tournament that well encompasses all of the northern-western hemisphere.

Based on how much we hear about the whole UEAFA thing, it sure seems as if we should be seeing more coverage of that. I think I've seen some tickers on ESPN, but never noticed that FSN, NBCSN, or ESPN covers the tournament. They should. The bigger deal it is, seems as if the better off CONCACAF would be....

FS1 and FS2 covers the tournament. Fox Soccer when it was around carried a good chunk of the games.

Here's something pretty vile from the U.S. Open Cup.

Don't forget to check on your pick'ems and make your round of 16 selections:

ESPN World Cup Pick 'Em- Pick each individual game. Check back in after each round to pick the next round's slate of games.

So I decided to get my old FIFA game out and play it again...haven't bought a video game since FIFA 11, wanted to set my favorite team as Sporting KC...yeah I need a newer version, they're still called the Wizards. Good thing I don't need 14, I think I'll just get FIFA 13 and save some bucks.

Separate but similar. I saw that Football Manager 2014 is $15 on sale now.
