(F13) League Discussion

I may be in the minority here but I don't enjoy those two anchors' shtick... The one guy is trying to be like Jim Carrey from Liar, Liar (why does EVERYTHING need to be an over-the-top, huge joke?). Dude, you're not Jim Carrey, simmer down.

I find when referencing the fun, "glory days" of the Dan Patrick, Olbermann era SportsCenters, people liked their humor because it was very dry and low-key. Outside of th occasional Kilborn yelling "Jumanji", you had Kenny Mayne, Rece Davis, Brett Haber, Rich Eisen... These FOX yahoos are using props, giggling like school girls trying hard to get the classroom to laugh at their jokes. Those guys weren't the funny guys in your group of high school friends, they were the annoying ones.

 

Yeah I wasn't a fan of FS1's debut either... maybe i'll give it a shot here or there after sportscenter's on its fifth run lol. I know they have a soccer show this monday (I wanna say 4pm ET?), so I might check that out if I can

 

UVerse has their Extra Time package (for free) on every package. I was recording two games and flipping between the others all morning Saturday. Then I was watching on my iPad on NBCSports Live yesterday while cooking breakfast for the family.

NBC will undoubtedly be cited as a factor in my forthcoming marital strife.

 

Don't know how I missed it on Saturday. I would have watched Fulham for sure.

The Liverpool match was great, shots, passes, crosses, woodwork, saves.... But I have to say I think Everton-Norwich has the most exciting match so far. We still have Man City v Newcastle today and Chelsea vs. Villa on Wednesday, though.

And you can watch them (from work, for those of us stuck in offices) here: http://stream.nbcsports.com/liveextra/

 

The NBC rights deal was the best thing to ever happen to Soccer on TV in the US. My gosh, every match on TV. Really!!! LOVE IT!

Best part of all, the cost!

For those who appreciate a commitment to the past. Good longform journalism on the origin of the game we love so much:

"[EA] didn’t think we were going to sell a single copy of [FIFA].
They thought it would be a complete disaster."

Best offer out so far for pre-order of FIFA? The Amazon one kinda sucks. Any suggestions?

 

Haven't looked into it yet, but Best Buy's usually involves FIFA points rather than FUT stuff (for those of us who don't play Ultimate Team). All of 'em are going to be about $60.

 

don't think any offer is really that great. Here's a quick rundown on the available offers: http://www.pastapadre.com/2013/07/26/fifa-14-pre-order-incentives

 

Two years ago Amazon offered $20 credit; that was amazing.

 

Anyone know how to turn off emails from the site when you get new alerts? I unchecked every box I can find, but instead of getting emails when I get an alert, I get like 15 emails at once from the past couple days worth of alerts. I check the site often enough I don't need emails at all really, but I can't find how to turn them off. Do I have to go through and unwatch every thread I posted in or something?

 

It's a glitch that's popped up since the site update. I would imagine you have to start unwatching threads until Shaun Mason gets the problem fixed and we start receiving email notifications when posts or PMs are actually generated, rather than at pre-set dump times.

 

my phone starts going apeshit when this happens.

 

If you are yet to respond to the PS3 / PS4 thread, please do so ASAP

 

LOL at the acting job on this one

 

Not Italian thank you
