everyone does know it, but i don't know why some people take so much pleasure in it.

a team in a league with a salary structure where the league pays the players going up against the biggest or 2nd biggest spending team on earth is a gigantic talent gap. of course it is.

you think the galaxy would get destroyed by qpr, or espanyol?

Wright-Philips with the shot outside the box to give City the 2-1 lead.

I don't take pleasure in it all, its just that some people are still dumb enough not to fully grasp the talent gap between the two (mostly fairweather or bandwagoner American fans who probably started following football/soccer way after the MLS' formation and think its a top-notch league...yes those ppl exist).

As for the QPR, Espanyol question, remember I said the skill gap between the elite teams of both leagues was enormous. I think the Galaxy would do fine against some of the perennial bottom feeders of the EPL or La Liga.

lol i just looked at the Seattle-ManU score...this is bad

WOW Luis Michel is doing some world class goal keeping vs Real Madrid

Post #53 » by **LittleOzzy** » Thu Jul 21, 2011 7:48 pm

Wow poor Seattle...

ClutchOver9000 · Post #54 » by **ClutchOver9000** » Fri Jul 22, 2011 7:52 am

Really Seattle? Really? 7-0 ownage? That's how it is? :noway:

I know Man-U had the win before the match begun but I thought you could've put up a way better fight than that. What's worse is that you hung w/ them the 1st half (only down one goal), yet somehow you guys took it up the rear hard in the 2nd half...6 straight goals???? Really Seattle? Really? :nonono:

Anyways....concerning Man-U, I know it was a preseason game and all, but regardless, those guys are looking sharp and ready to take over this season. I'm already predicting them to take the cup. :bowdown:

Good to see Mancini show some balls though.

Just saw Balotelli's antics. What a tool.

That was hilarious by Balotelli. I was like what the heck is doing slowing down, and then he pulled that. I could not stop laughing. If you are going to do something stupid like that, you gotta score.

It's a shame because he's incredibly talented. At least he's fun to watch lol
