Galaxy man. Easy.

First Galaxy match of the season about to start soon. Well psyched. Anyone want to watch it'll be on bet365.

I've gone with £30 on the first acc and £15 on the second.

Nothing to be sneezed at there. Better than some european leagues. Looks reasonably healthy, I'm pleased to say. Know many European leagues with the USA's population? You need to look at the towns rather than the country as a whole, though.

Time for the weekly Norwegian league update for madras. Not going too in depth this time. (Odds are from Unibet at the time this is posted.) Sunday 17pm kick-offs: Sunday 19pm kick-off: Monday 18pm kick-off: Acc suggestion: Lillestrøm Odd Grenland Tromsø Rosenborg dnb £10 returns £52 Acc suggestion for more hardened gamblers: Aalesund dnb Rosenborg Tromsø -1 Odd -1 £10 returns £226

Fucking right, our cab driver almost didn't even get us there. Got half off on the fare though, since he'd been fucking about for ages trying to find the way.

And as I said that, he scores.

Commentators says a lot of English clubs are at Start - Molde to look at Christian Bolaños. Didn't mention the names of the clubs bar Fulham, but he's one of the few players in the Norwegian league I'd not mind us taking a punt at.

Sometimes I envy the MLS having the same teams year in and year out. That way you at least avoid the Wigan's, Hull's and the Bolton's coming up and stinking up the place.

In Leviticus it also says it is an abomination to eat shellfish, so is everyone who eats a seafood pizza condemned? In John 3:16 it says whosoever believes in God will have life everlasting, making no distinction between sexualities. Note "Whosoever" not whosoever as long as you are straight. In Flinstones : it says " have a yabadabadoo time, a dabadoo time, we'll have a gay old time" The burning question is, Were Fred and Barney shagging each other? In answer to this question, conclusive evidence is available NSFW!!! Rule #34: There is porn of it. No exceptions.

Will Teitur Thordasson still be the coach of the Whitecaps when they enter the MLS, or will they just toss him aside?

In Leviticus it also says it is an abomination to eat shellfish, so is everyone who eats a seafood pizza condemned? Yes.

Can't wait for Galaxy's first match this season on Sat. On at 5am my time, but fuck it, I'm watching that.

Yeah, Sounders was canny atmosphere wise last season as well. http://i470.photobucket.com/albums/rr67/mex-negro/la_galaxy_logo_big.gif ftw

Sounders take the lead over Union. And how fucking young is that Union squad? It's like an U-20 fest out there.

Union shirts are well nice.

Since there's quite a few yanks here, I thought it'd be canny enough to have an MLS thread.

So what are we discussing now? I mean.. You say some players still fancy history over money, I agreed. I said Man City have the potential to buy whoever they wanted (given the players they would be buying would be wanting money over history), you agreed.

I said they're behind Real Madrid in attractiveness, why use players they've signed as examples? Eto'o was a part of the Zlatan deal as well, which was to one of the other clubs I said was ahead of them when it came to attractiveness. Not to mention we have no idea if they ever were in for the same targets as the clubs you've mentioned, bar the ones I said was above them. So in that sense we'll never find out which one of us is right or wrong. And I fully believe that some players still value history in their clubs above money, I just don't believe that most of them do. If City ever gets CL football there will be no stopping them tbh.

The issue is City could trump any wage offer, and footballers these days are money hungry whores. I don't like it, but it's reality. I don't disagree there's more prestige playing for clubs with a history, but in today's footballing world it's mostly just the fans who have the pipe dream that the players actually care about clubs. Well, some do, but they're in a massive minority. Having said that, I don't think they can take players away from the biggest clubs. Just steal their transfer targets should they go for the same players.

You're mad if you think they are ahead of Inter, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, Milan, Juve, Valencia, and Olympique Marseille. Man City can outbid any of those clubs regarding wages these days, and I dare say at least 70-75% of all footballers today only care about money. Chelsea could probably sneak in ahead of them, though. It doesn't do them any bad that the PL is generally a more attractive league for players to go to than the French and Italian, either. Option A: "Hey player X, here's £40k a week, come play in Italy." Option B: "Don't listen to them player X, come to England and get £80k a week, not enough you say? Why, here's £100k. And here's a motivational speech as well regarding how we'll break into the top four and get CL to top it all off." I dare say most players would go for option B.

I'd say that (Not taking into consideration players not just wanting a shitload of money but want to be playing for an actual club.) Man City now are fourth in the world re: attractiveness behind Man Utd, Real Madrid and Barcelona due to their money.
