Weekend Review? man of the week

USA 0-Slovakia 1
Just a terrible played by the United States. No vision or creativity by the coach or the players. It looked like the frustrating US of old, slow and stubborn. 4-4-2 didnt work, not even once, We should have pushed Dempsey up as a support striker/center attacking mid and played 3 central midfielders(4-3-1-2). It makes me think that the United States are winning despite Bob Bradley's coaching, but im not going to hit the panic button. We were without Donavon and Davies and will be without them tomorrow for Denmark but in saying that we still should have a better showing tomorrow vs Denmark.

Italy 0- Holland 0
Not much to say, the only thing that I have learn is that Rossi should be starting.(Oh and Pirlo tries so much harder for Italy then Milan)

Ok I forgot to do the Man of the week yesterday but suck it, i'm putting it up today
As much as I love Brandon Jennings(On a side note 38% of people still think that him going to Europe was bad idea. Why? so he could be taken advantage of in college, making only money for the school instead of making 1.5 million for himself and getting to live in rome? yea terrible idea.)
BUT! the Man of the Week is.............drum roll..............
MANNY PACQUIAO
he just man-handled Cotto (who is a very respectable fighter) and now he is the first boxer to win seven world titles in seven different weight classes. This is just flat out amazing, I mean I am 5' 6" and I look nothing like that, well maybe just a little bit like that. But Manny is just flat out one of the best boxers of all time and his next fight, hopefully vs Mayweather, I'm gonna drop 70 dollars on.

Week 10/World Cup Qualifiers

My week 10 picks!( i need a new pair of shoes, no really, I need a new pair of shoes, my running shoes are in really bad shape and winning my office pool would be really great)
San Fran over Chicago- I might pick against chicago the rest of the way(oh and i got it right, I promise)
Tenn. over Buffalo-Vince Young is a winner and Chris Johnson is a stud-muffin
NO over St.louis-St.louis is terrible
Miami over TB-Miami could be one of the best 3-5 teams in history
Minn. over Detroit-as much as i would wish harm upon Jared Allen, Detroit is terrible
NYJ over Jax- Ugh jets have burned me so much this year, so i can pick against them
Cinncy over Pitt-Come on cinncy, Who de? who de? we dey!
Denver over Wash.-washington is terrible
Carolina over atlanta-Atlanta has been getting lucky, Deangleo is just a man
Dallas over GB-GB's o-line v D.Ware, nuff said
Ari over Seattle-Ari will start to roll
SD over Philly-Andy Reid.......
NE over Indy-Tom Brady, Well more then that, Belichick vs a first year coach on the colts
Balt. over Cleveland -Cleveland is terrible.

WCQ(just the knock out games)
Costa Rica-Uruguay-URUGUAY, just a better team, Costa Rica are overachievers
Russia-Slovenia-RUSSIA, Guus is great
Ireland-France-sorry i want the irish but FRANCE
Greece-Ukraine-its waaayyyyy to cold in the Ukraine, UKRANIE
Portugal-Bosnia-Herzegovina-complete toss-up, heads portugal, tails Bosnia, Heads-PORTUGAL

Ugh, rough week

This week as been so frustrating with me(I blame it on friday 13th, broken Ipod, broken itunes, and hurt foot)and sports arent really helping me one bit.

The Detroit Tigers are considering trading Curtis Granderson, can we just stop and think about that for a second.....ok enough. Granderson(if traded) is most likely to go to Cubs or...sigh...the Yankees. I know we(tigers) to get rid of some salary but really Granderson at 5 million is on the table. Cause Granderson is not a guy you want around when you are rebuilding, no, he was only the Man of the Year in the MLB this year. I dunno maybe we can just have Miguel Caberea led the team(to the bar). If we do this trade, i'm not watching baseball next year.


Jared Allen(know detroit hater)-I just cannot stand him, now he is talking about mullets and how great they are, please lions win or you know what, even better just hurt Jared Allen

my week 10 picks coming up later today- as well as superbowl and maybe alittle Nba action.

Detroit Pistons 2010

I have never been a big fan of Joe D ever since the trade of Darko( It probably was the correct move tho, and I fault Larry Brown for Darko's lack of development) but I have to say he might be moving in the right direction with the team(i hope).

The Nba salary cap is currently at 57.7 million dollars, the pistons current salary is at 58 million and next year is predicted(subject to to change) 49 million. This does not look good but I promise you there is some hope to be found.

Tayshuan Prince and Jason Maxiell will not be on the pistons roster next year, if we want a big name free agent. If Prince and Maxiell are traded that would free up 16 million dollars next year, taking the pistons cap down from 49 million to 36 million, giving the pistons around 20 million in cap space.

Now with that 20 million in cap space Joe D will(hopefully) go after a big man that scores in the paint. The top 3 in my mind are Chris Bosh(currently making 15 mil), Amare Stoudemire (16 mil) and Carlos Boozer (12 Mil) in that order. And we should sign one of these guys(please not boozer) and I feel that Joe D will.

So this is what are 2010 Detroit Pistons line up should be
Stuckey-Hamilton-Jerebko-Villanueva-Bosh
Bench: Gordon, Daye, Bynum and hopefully another big man

Ps: I'm falling in love with Brandon Jennings, so I will have some posts about him and how the bucks should be alot better then they are.

Weekends cost me too much money/ MAN!

Ron Burgundy was so right, go fuck yourself San Diego, you cost me 45 dollars. another week another loss. I think im gonna start saving 10 bucks a week to try and cover my losses. I just need to to stay warm like this and starting playing golf and tennis with people that will bet, so who wants to play? $10 per hole/set.

I think every monday I am going to name the Man/badass of the week and this guy clearly wins

he take the time to get dress, looking all fashionable, but then he sees he was going to be late to the game so he grabs his toothbrush and kills two birds with one stone. Keeping those teeth clean and watch Man u lose.

speaking about Man U(speaking about an awesome segueway) Chelsea took them down getting a 5 point lead. But, I'm starting to get a feeling that it may be Arsenal year, but then again, everyone gets that feeling this time of year, its kind of like a cold, eventually it will clear up with time.

ROMA-THANK GOD, if we would have lost this game it could have been the beginning of the end of the hopes for any kind of European action next year. Hopefully De Rossi is back in two weeks, only missing the Bari match(i think). But on a positive Mexas is just a man!(second this week only to the tooth brush guy) and MENEZ! Menez played amazing and im gonna give it up to him.

Liverpool(aquliani EPL debut) v B'ham in about 25 mins, i dont care really, go B'ham tho(cant stand L'pool) and maybe if liverpool keep falling Aquliani will make his way back to roma.
