Physicality for one thing. Exciting play that can involve lots of shots on goal that generally goes into double digit numbers!

The physicality is something that developed thats to the field of play with walls and all, the pure version played out on a frozen lake isn't like that.

Well NHL playoffs definitely have drama but the difference is that soccer can still be fun to watch even if its a meaningless game.
Plays for Monaco so anybody that wants him will have to break the bank.
Love those Colombian celebrations.

AS Monaco in France.
They just bought him last year and paid a pretty penny (45 million USD). I could see a PSG, Manchester City, type scooping him up in the near future though.

Can't stop watching this.
Dude moved the ball when the guy was going to kick it.
I have eyes too ;-)
Yes, but you're from Europe so we are already confused about how you are using the internet.

From the World Cup thread said:
The World Cup is a beautiful, beautiful event and even you close-minded, uncultured clowns should appreciate how it always brings out the best fans.

Monaco is one of those type of clubs. They were bought 2 years ago or something when they were still in the second league and then spend 150 million on Rodiguez, Falcao, Moutinho and others.
Also, soccer is exhausting. 6 miles doesn't sound like a lot, but it's the constant stop-and-go stuff that kills me.

Not entirely sure why its airing, but Elf is on TV.
God it's such a classic. Top 10 Christmas movie of all time and best in my lifetime.

smh, Marky Mark is awesome.
The only reason I would even contemplate watching Transformers is for him

FX is showing a marathon (well one movie every night) of Bayformers. Revenge of the Fallen is on.
Made me realize two things.
A) For all the hate she gets, Megan Fox in her semi-prime was unbelievably hot
B) This movie is fucking ridiculously stupid. I know I've made comments in the past defending Transformers but this is terrible. It's at the college scene with the Mark Sanchez looking motherfucker and his hacker buddies and the pot brownies and its already indefensible. Haven't even gotten to racist robots and metal scrotums yet.

Will still keep watching because I'm a glutton for sploding robots, damn you Bay
Naw Marky Mark is literally an awful human being who is racist and beat the shit out of a middle age Vietnamese man and blinded him in one eye in the process.

No denying that he was a piece of shit kid, not sure I can hold that against him forever.

You can't say you are a true Bostoner until you've beaten the shit out of a minority.
But to be fair, he has apologized for that.
He was a teenage crackhead when he did that. People change, especially from their teen years. He shouldn't be excused for his actions but I don't think he is forever a racist thug either
