Congrats - Now get your butts to Omaha this weekend to join the SEC domination!

This video always reminds me of the scale of the war and how successful D-Day was.

The casualties on the eastern front is mind boggling.

Property is property in America and it’s sacrosanct. Regardless of your opinion of said property, protection of it is fundamental to American society.

But we can all agree, Penicillin (and the variants) is still the GOAT.

No controversy there

Yeah - Why we created their own island for them called the soccer board.

We weren’t turning out aircraft carriers…. Not saying we would’ve lost but it would’ve made the war drastically different and longer.

We had 4 operational heavy aircraft carriers in the Pacific during Midway, same amount as Japan. We destroyed all 4 of Japans. Afterwards, capital poured in and we went overdrive on production to capitalize on the naval superiority and get in a position to never give it up.

If Japan did that to us, they would’ve done the same.

Stopped reading after NY Times….

How in the world does this guy know the excitement level of other countries? I promise you Mexico is excited about the event, though not very optimistic about their squad.

It would be insanely expensive to do a big World Cup Trip. Also, the games are spread out all over North America in huge cities with hotels stacked on hotels - they were never going to be close to capacity / demand surges.

FIFA is to blame for ticket prices and their leadership needs to take a dirt nap. Won the lottery in Houston for Cat 2 and I am sitting at the very fricking top of the stadium while they reserve high priced seats without the demand.

Also, its soccer - everyone in America knows no one cares until the ball is dropped at kickoff.

I actually thought it looked like a great atmosphere. Those were some great games too.

That error by the 3B in the Sunday game loomed large. No lead is safe and no error goes unpunished in College Baseball which makes it so much fun to watch.

Just wish LSU participated this year :wah:

Good point - I agree.

I never thought about that season in that way. The impact got lost in my repressed memories of wanting to jump off the Superdome in the Natty and then wanting to jump off Tiger Stadium after the TJ Yeldon screen pass the following year.

I was at the game behind the field goal with the game winner in overtime.

Best, most intense, game I have ever seen.

However, how did this game have consequences of historical proportions other than haunt LSU fans after the rematch (if the fricking Okie St kicker)?
