    World Cup Knockout Rounds Thread (USMNT THREAD!) (nwt)

    That would be terri-bad. So terrible. That just completely changes the game and strategy to something it never really has been, doesn't seem natural to the game, and doesn't really make historical sense. That sounds fair. So like the old men that come and talk about the Spurs and how they play...

    World Cup Knockout Rounds Thread (USMNT THREAD!) (nwt)

    I'll admit to being a once every four years fan, I'll watch Champions League occasionally I guess. Side note, are people surprised about the once-every-four-years fans, or just annoyed? I'm not trying to bash on soccer saying this, but it's somewhere around the 5th most popular sport in the US...

    World Cup Knockout Rounds Thread (USMNT THREAD!) (nwt)

    Why is comparing Technical FTs a better comparison? Because of the type of foul or the pressure or that they don't happen as often? In reality, free throws are not a good comparison at all to penalty kicks in terms of how often people score or how easy they are. Free throws are obviously way...

    Not a gimme, but conversion rate is like ~75%. What's the success rate for any plays inside the box?

    World Cup Knockout Rounds Thread (USMNT THREAD!) (nwt)

    Question for those who know more about soccer. What effect would moving the penalty kick spot back have on penalties and the game? To me it seems like the punishment for fouling in the box and the reward for getting fouled is way to large. The likelihood that Robben and the Netherlands turn...

    Two soccer questions

    159<9861 Ugh Gen Xers Yup, Wake basketball was one of my hobbies but not really sure what to do now. Guess I'm entitled to take out my disappointment and angst on other people anonymously in over dramatic posts on a message board. I wish I did anything else with my life. Nope, definitely a...

    Two soccer questions

    It blows my mind how self absorbed you are that you always are so in denial and completely miss the point of what everyone is saying. You still have yet to apologize. You did give DeacMan and all of us shitty relationship advice about a terrible movie (source: 38% Rotten Tomatoes and a plot only...

    I wish they had cast George Clooney. Then this would have been a guaranteed hit.

    The Official OGBoards Running (and Cycling) Thread: (Insert Season Here)

    The 9000 meter split was misreported initially. It should be 24:15 through 9k. Otherwise that's a 1000m record. But still, 2:29 is a pretty good kick.

    Which movie would probably make more money?

    I'm pretty concerned that everyone has forgotten about a marquee Tom Hanks film and one of the most important films of the 20th century. While not grossing as much as his larger movies with only $71 million in the US, the depth of character and development exhibited from beginning to end by...

    Jill Abramson - Commencement Speaker

    And this. Like seriously how the fuck do you do that? It'd be like if Obama made a speech and said he was proud to be serving the people of Illinois.

    Jill Abramson - Commencement Speaker

    Um he sucks, is completely disconnected with: students, Wake Forest's history, athletics, and anyone who doesn't have $$$$$$$ that many dollar signs on their paycheck, is running the school on a flawed model (don't want to get into this part too much, but cutting faculty health care and raising...

    The Official OGBoards Running (and Cycling) Thread: (Insert Season Here)

    I've done that before. I went through a couple pairs of Brooks Infinitis, did it again after they discontinued those and that's how I got to Ravennas. I was trying to avoid having to make an extra trip somewhere. I'm really just wondering if anyone has had particularly bad experiences with any...

    The Official OGBoards Running (and Cycling) Thread: (Insert Season Here)

    Need advice/suggestions for buying new running shoes. Getting back into it after a long time off. I heel strike and I also pronate a little more than average. As far as workload, I'll start out slower but ideally once in shape I will be doing 4-8 miles five times a week before too long, adding...
