Well we keep finding more and more fans, garlad you are just adding to the group. So let's keep all football related content in this thread since we are small group of fans who actually follow we can't make threads that only one person will reply. Anyways Scott, Baliey, Dattebayo and myself all follow pro football. The same people in addition to Bravesfan and jrocca have/play FIFA09.

To answer your question from the other thread, yes I do follow. I don't have a particular team in the EPL, but I enjoy watching the games. However I am liking Liverpool this year, I think if they don't win it now they won't in a long time! they are finally reaching that talent threshold and it's their time! Torres is in a fantastic level and Benitez is having no issues with players so what else can I say? ManU is finally losing grip. Chelsea is a mess I think, they keep buying players and more players that bring a huge ego and that's why the teams is so inconsistent! the egos that team has will not let them find their rhythm. Arsenal has a relatively young team that will only get better and I keep reading everywhere that they might lose Fabregas this next summer....

I used to watch plenty of the Spanish league, but I lost GolTV which used to show all the games every weekend. Fox Sports channel now shows the EPL and the Serie A Italian league which is not bad, but not the same.

Who does ManU begin with? I am just going to follow their progress cuz of Chicharito! lucky SOBs got a good deal on him. That kid will get better and better! specially with the caliber of players that ManU has and an excellent coach that knows how to build exceptional players. :scat:

you will follow any mexican in the premier leauge even vela and the guy at fulham now :p
 
I just track down where they are going lol and I am not about to watch Fulham play either.

leave me alone is the first time we have so many players abroad!!! :hilarious: I just follow I don't root.
 
Yo Rick did you see that beating today?! hahahaha! Barcelona 5.....just 5 and madrid 0! :hilarious:

Now Mourinho can go talk smack about Villa not scoring. That guy is a clown. The best part was when people started chanting "Mourinho, go to the theater!"
:hilarious:
 
I just caught the highlights, but it seemed to be pretty one-sided. Im not a huge Barca fan but I really don't like Real Madrid so the score line looked pretty good to me :) LMAO at Puyol when he "fell" backward, that was insanely embellished :rofl:
 
They might as well not have shown up. It was a great one sided game. It wasn't just a beating, it was a walk in a park. They just danced around them so easily made them look like rookies. Impressive display of football, that's a high bar of excellence that won't be matched in a long time. Simply Perfect.
 
5 Clasicos in 3 weeks makes April/1st week of May possibly the best in recent football history!

I will leave this here as a refresher and to get some folks pumped for these next 4 games.

I still can't believe Man City scored two goals in extra time to win the title (EPL) :angry:

I hear you. I am a Man U supporter, but to be honest, MU did not deserve to win the title. They had an 8 point lead that they lost through some dodgy tactics and poor selection.
 
I couldn't believe MC game had 5 minutes of extra time. Although I guess Barton kicking someone and the whole deal really deserved the 5 minutes.

So let's blame Barton!! :D
 
I didnt want city to win the title BUT the way they did it was superb - talk about extra drama for those United fans, mwhahaha

Barton should be hung by his balls and left to rot
