All the OP's message did was make me miserable. Please, for the love of God, let there be NFL at the very least.

Volleyball chicks do rule though.

NFL is less likely than the NBA, IMO. :lmao

I'm telling you, WWC is where its AT.

[MannyIsGod]

In fact, Slomo if you can just move the other sports forum to the top and pin it there it would probably be a good thing. Just go ahead and stash the Spurs, NBA, and NFL forums somewhere below the fantasy league forums.

Thanks in advance.

yes.

I wish chicks would wear those shorts in other sports.

[cheguevara]

:lol at soccer still having a pro league

this should be the MLS opportunity to seize market. Too bad they don't have anybody marketable. Bring in Messi and its game over.

Damn, man. You don't know when to stop.

[baseline bum]

Only the good sports ever have work stoppages. Why can't we have an MMA strike? Or the WNBA demanding more than minimum wage?

[Texas_Ranger]

Thank god we can all watch Coppa America on Youtube.

[hater]

Thank god we can all watch Coppa America on Youtube.

huh? it's gonna be in Univision + Telefutura. ain't it??

Alex Morgan and the US are on tomorrow morning at 11:30 ET!!!!

:lmao

[benefactor]

College football and basketball should save me. I'm especially looking forward to basketball as this draft promises to be a good one and I can spend a much more time scouting players since there will be no NBA.

[Libri]

huh? it's gonna be in Univision + Telefutura. ain't it??

Yes and you'll be hearing a lot of, "Seeeeeee laaaaaa perdioooooooooooooooooo!!!"

[DeadlyDynasty]

I can deal without the NBA and NFL...looks like I'll be out of the country for a year, this coming fall. Great time for a lockout :tu

[braeden0613]

Wimbledon is pretty interesting...but let's be honest, summer sports are generally awful

[daslicer]

I don't like to watch soccer or baseball it doesn't excite me. College basketball is ok but I don't get into it until the tournament. I hate how the 3 point line is smaller in college and I hate the 35 second shot clock. These 2 things really alter the game the way it is played. If the NBA gets cancelled for a year its not the end of the world I will just work out more.

How can you really say this about MMA? You may not be a fan of fighting, and that's fine, but you absolutely have to admire their business model. There's a reason why they don't strike. They owners and managers do their job, and that's properly manage. We as fans get the fights we want every time (not like boxing), when fighters do something really stupid more than once (i.e. Nate Marquardt), they get fired (novel idea!), and the fighters are actually still humble! I mentioned this in another lockout thread. When many of the fighters win, they mention the owners and thank them for the opportunity! Holy shit! Could you imagine Lebron being humble? Not just saying it, but genuinely humble?

The fighters are the obvious draw, but they don't control the UFC. And that is a good thing! When NBA players have that power, we as fans lose out. It's everyone's fault, both sides, players for being fantastically selfish on a level most of us will never understand and owners for feeding that, throwing fuel on the fire, so to speak.

[ShoogarBear]

Wait, the players are "fantastically selfish" and the owners are . . . what?

[lefty]

80s and 90s vintage games FTW

[RoyerReptiles]

Wait, the players are "fantastically selfish" and the owners are . . . what?

The owners have a desire that all of them, from the top to the bottom, make money. What's wrong with that? The league as a whole makes money, all of the players get paid, the biggest market teams make money, but then some of the others don't? Why own a team and not make money? That doesn't make sense.

Players have a great deal of power in the NBA whereas in the UFC the fighters don't. I don't believe that the UFC loses money, but some teams in the NBA apparently do. Do you see the business model that works in this equation? The NBA needs to be fixed, and it's from top to bottom.

[DMC]

Soccer... I would rather watch wheelchair basketball.

[MannyIsGod]

Fucking great day of soccer today. USWNT had some sick goals and then got to watch some Copa America and topped it off with a night of damn good MLS games.

I mean you're going to hate on this?

ykXTe2oZSOk

[MannyIsGod]

LOL BTW, I bet all those people in that stadium are sad about the Trailblazes right now.

[ElNono]

lol baseball... watching 90 mins for 2 mins of action and 5 more innings to go...

[ElNono]

lol even Homer Simpson realized that watching baseball sober is boring as hell... :lol

[ElNono]

BTW, working on my citizenship papers as we speak :toast

[lefty]

Soccer shits on any North American sport

Most popular sport in the WORLD

Baseball :lmao

[ElNono]

lol butthurt about baseball... like 98% of the this state's population who are bandwagoner Yankee fans...

Ah. Players wanting money = "selfish", owners wanting money = "shrewd businessmen fighting for Truth, Justice, and the American way".

Thanks for clearing that up.

To be honest Womens World Cup blows. No excitement or satisfaction in watching US Womens team win every game 3-0.

[timtonymanu]

This sucks. I'm gonna have a killer schedule this fall at my university. Could use some NBA games to escape from school. Oh well, there's always tv shows?
