My first soccer game when I was seven or so was against a traveling team called the Strikers.

Getting killed in indoor is the worst because you're chasing even more furiously and giving up goals even faster. It's utterly demoralizing.

All these Yankee Scousers (or, Scanks...teehee)...man

I hate to say it because I loathe what City stand for, but the football they're playing looks like it's going to hold up. I'm not sure about Tevez isolated up top, but the midfield play is rock solid (with a few healthy, violent kicks from DeJong to boot).

They might be the third best team in England if Arsenal can't keep it together.

I root for the Gunners in the EPL, but I don't know. I think it's a league of 2 with United and Chelsea, then a league of 3-5 with Gunners, City and Spurs/Liverpool/Everton.

Not to mention the rug-burn.

well, a win against trabzospor(whoever the hell they are) in the europa league, dirk committing to liverpool, plus a gimme against west brom at home this sunday will hopefully raise the morale at anfield. although, it would have been nice to have an aquilani at peak form distributing from the midfield. i wonder if paul scholes has a clone out there somewhere roaming around merseyside, hmmm.

A gimme?

Not a chance its a gimme,don't ever fall in to that trap for goodness sake. Liverpool aren't playing well enough to call any game a gimme. Sure its a game they should and probably will win but these are the type of games we messed up in last year.

Am I the only Yank Scouser who does not care for Kuyt? With the shortage of scoring talent up front (other than Torres of course) I don't want my wide midfielders top three traits to be work rate-defense-work rate while defending.

His best passes are square balls, rarely beats anyone off the dribble, and passes in the final third are severely lacking. He can finish in the box if the opposing left back forgets abou him and the ball is on a platter or a rbound falls his way.

(puts on helmet to protect self from certain rocks heading my direction).

I'm not a Kuyt fan, but his crossing is serviceable, and his ability to cut the ball back to a trailing man (and see that pass) is serviceable also. Still, if Kuyt is smart, he stays in England. Some of the varnish'll come off in Italy - a country/league that values guile, technical ability and tactical intelligence more than it values work rate and being 'stuck in'.

well, being from texas i'd never refer to myself as a yank, or allow anyone else to do so, but i am partial to kuyt. he's a hustler and he gets the job done when he has to. he's not a flash player, but he's got just as much heart as wayne rooney albeit with less talent. not that i wouldn't prefer to see a one two combo with david villa and fernando torres up front. but hey, you live with what you got. he's loyal, and he looks like sloth from the goonies, could you ask for anything more?

holy crap man... a 10 man west brom squad at anfield no less, and we only win by a goal?!? WTF? we need some distribution!

The West Brom player was sent off with 3 minutes left,so it was hardly a 10 man team Liverpool beat.

Great goal from Torres today.

With the departure of Alonso and now Javier Mascherano , KOPS need to find someone to fill the midfield.

Selling Alonso is a big mistake in 2009.

West Ham's defense is a sieve and the offense is just offensive... just brutal. Nine goals against, and no goals scored from open play. I think our only goal came from the penalty spot and we even missed another. God, even my fantasy team is taking it prison style.

      Day 2: played 18. Driving was decent to good. Approach play was meh. Short game meh, and putting solid. Added up to an 81. Needed more tap in pars and more birdie chances.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 8 (28 Jun 26) - Worked with face position at address and overall setup - open/neutral/closed - and setting up for resulting shot shapes - using 8i and hard foam balls.  It was abbreviated as the thunder began to rumble. Got in about 20 swings before calling it.

      My Swing (GolfLug)

      By GolfLug · Posted

      Tale of two swings.  Swing 1: Slightly outside takeaway (hands move outside of target line) only to allow trail elbow over collapsing at P4. Doesn't take much to overdo it for the trail elbow collapse to only further exaggerate. That's death. Swing 2: Hands stay slight in at takeaway for a much better trail elbow condition at P4. This is a hard sell from an instinct perspective. More focus on un-weighting and re-weighting of lead foot to unlock a bit more mobility of hips and torso. A major flaw that creeps up often is me swinging flat footed and becoming overly armsy-collapsy as a result. Got reminded of this the hard way during my 2nd round match for club net championship. Was cruising along 2up until I made the turn. Then lost the swing for next five holes. Andy was playing good enough to capitalize. By the time I regained my swing on 16th, it was too late. Even Andy was like "That was a gift". Obviously that stings because have played well enough lately. Should have closed him out of the game comfortably with a few holes to spare. Shoulda woulda coulda. Tough lesson. Damn. P.S. I know the swings look very similar but trust me there is a difference.
