http://www.metro.co.uk/sport/football/909828-clint-dempsey-nearing-sunderland-switch-as-talks-with-fulham-continue#ixzz24ljzXGZM That's the main article people seem to be relating to when I searched Clint Dempsey's name this afternoon on Twitter. I have no idea what the credibility of the site is though. https://twitter.com/#!/search/Clint%20Dempsey As for the idea of him playing at Sunderland, well, it just doesn't really make sense considering the comment he made about wanting to play for a Champions League team. I honestly don't even know what to think about this whole situation aside from it being clear that Liverpool no longer wants him and the relationship between him and Martin Jol (Fulham's manager) is ruined.

Speaking of Da'Rick Rogers, he transferred to Tennessee Tech today. What a nightmare he's been for Tennessee. Still can't believe the dude blew what seemed like his 100th chance at Tennessee, especially considering he could've been a first round pick next year. Will be interesting to see how he does on September 15th when they head to Eugene and face the Ducks.

I'll probably put the Week 1 thread up later tonight guys. FYI, we will still be using the spread assuming everyone is ok with that.

Now hearing Clint Dempsey's name associated with Sunderland. Really wish this whole situation would end already. The sooner Clint Dempsey gets back on the field the better.

Luis Suárez got my vote. His free kick was absolute perfection. http://i.minus.com/icQQJSSQUE129.gif

Kind of want to get this going since Week 1 starts on Thursday, so I guess we'll just do it on the board in the hopes that more people will see it and participate.

Well, this isn't looking good fellas. If we are going to do it on the board I'd like more participation to make it worthwhile.

Oh man, the Man City/Arsenal game was tough to watch. City was lucky to pull away with a draw after receiving two gifts. Despite not winning at Anfield since 2003, it's quite concerning knowing that WBA walked all over them 3-0 the week before.

In honor of the 10th anniversary of the first live stream MLB.TV Premium is now only $10 for the remainder of the season. Deal ends Monday night though. http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/subscriptions/index.jsp?&partnerId=DC-122991-49966899-5683346

Landon Donovan announced yesterday on the Soccer Today radio show that he will not be joining Everton during the MLS off-season. Really hope the time off will help him rekindle some of the competitive fire he has talked about losing recently.

Nope, it's not too late. It starts when Week 1 of the regular season starts which is Wednesday, September 5th.

As of right now it's either Torres or Pienaar, but I'll refrain from voting until the matches from tomorrow are completed.

You better hope not be because the next three games (Clemson, @ South Florida, @ North Carolina State) will probably make or break the year. As for EJ Manuel and his chances of winning the Heisman, well, he would need to lead Florida State to an undefeated season and a birth in the National Championship game to be considered a legit contender. Chances are slim, but it's not impossible.

I say we wait until all the games for each week have been played before putting up a thread for that week.

Just got caught up on all the games today and that Rooney injury was awful looking. Reports are out saying that he'll miss four weeks. It actually wouldn't be that bad of a stretch to miss considering United plays Southampton, Wigan Athletic, and Liverpool. Image is quite graphic. View at your own discretion. Welbeck's reaction is priceless. Skip to 16 seconds in. I grabbed the URL at that time and put it in, but for some reason it's not working. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPPygqGSF3Q#t=16s

Pancakes and bacon.

Jumping on the bandwagon?

Appears as though Ken Malcome will be the starting running back to start the year, although the official announcement won't be made until the night before the season opener against Buffalo. Hope he remains motivated not to have another freshman steal his playing time like Isaiah Crowell did last year.

I supposed we could if enough people are interested in doing it.

beIN Sport acquires television rights to USMNT road World Cup qualifiers Comcast just agreed to a deal with them so I'm happy. Overall, this is a GREAT deal for all U.S. soccer fans. Now that Comcast, who is the largest cable provider in the United States, is on board other cable providers should come through as well.

I actually thought people would like it more if it was run through a site like Yahoo or ESPN.

Didn't realize you followed College Football. Glad to have you though. The more the merrier!

Just looked and they don't even offer it. http://shop.mcfc.co.uk/stores/mancity/products/kit_selector.aspx?selectorid=310

Can't wait. Just hope those members are dealt with sooner rather than later.
