Damn, this dude is acting like a little bitch not only in the Chelsea thread but here too.

Great game, way to fight it back. Some dicey moments for sure but happy with the performance.

Sullivan scored another goal tonight after scoring against Austin last week.

Oklahoma’s own Rokas Pukstas is moving to Middle(America’s)brough to join Ohio’s contingent of Morris, Berhalter, and Arfsten.

Unfortunately this diagnosis isn’t an uphill battle, but an uphill cliff.

It’s tough because early symptoms (when it’s most treatable) can mimic a viral illness. No one wants to do a lumbar puncture on a kid with what looks like a virus when the expected course is that 99.999% will get better.

Old Bond movies were great because they weren't all dark and brooding. Apparently Austin Powers made the Bond franchise move to the darker movies to distance themselves.

I prefer the old bond movies for this reason. J enjoyed James Bond when it was a bit campy. Moonraker was my favorite movie growing up but live and let die featuring New Orleans and voo doo was kind of awesome.

Why? The yanks abroad thread has been pinned to the top for the past 15 years I’ve been on this board and it works best that way. Frankly it’s one of the main reasons I have for visiting the board.

It definitely shouldn’t be pinned to the bottom. Much less activity when it’s hidden down there.

I have more hours in Xcom2 than probably any other game ever. Looking forward to this one.

I’ve been looking for good turn based strategy games that scratch the xcom itch and nothing has done it for me. Seeing something similar that is Star Wars? Count me in.

I did thoroughly enjoy wasteland 3, though, and have hundreds of hours in it. Kind of a cool mix of xcom and fallout.

I would expect a Freeman type situation and he moves next December to a club in Europe if he develops like he has been.

I could absolutely see this. Keep in mind though that next season has a sprint season in the spring followed by the calendar switch to August-May.

Pulisic was scoring goals in the Bundesliga at 17.

He got some playing time at the very end of his 17 year old season. We won’t have a comparison with Mathis until the end of this year. Cavan is a tougher comparison because they are much different players and play in different leagues.

Cavan Sullivan, Noahkai Banks, Zavier Gozo, and Adri Mehmeti?

Add Mathis and you have the top five prospect U-20s. Peyton Miller, Neal Pierre, and Justin Ellis are all top prospects now (Miller has been so the longest, he’s been playing up a year at youth national team camps for several cycles now). I hadn’t paid much attention to Ellis until the last few games, but man the kid has some sauce. More an Aguero type striker if I had to compare him to anyone. Less technical, a bit more physical. Ostensibly a forward but plays more like a tucked in winger. Griezmann apparently really likes him. Ellis was the only teammate he followed on insta :lol: LINK

This guy makes a really good list if you want to start following closer:

I peruse the various year lists before youth national team competitions so I know which players to watch more closely. Yes I’m a sicko.

Cavan and Mathis are viewed as Pulisic level prospects at this point. Prospect is the key word here. People in general see Cavan and Mathis as having higher ceilings than Pulisic. But then again, many thought Reyna’s ceiling was higher, too.
