Oh well I don't know. Maybe they need them ad views tonight from Wrestlemania? I don't know. lol.

I do suspect they are losing a lot of money on that WWE deal.

If you say you hate the state of politics in this nation and you don't get involved in it, you obviously don't hate the state of politics in this nation.

Question on the fan debate on the overlap:

Is winning the PL bigger than winning thr Champions League?

I personally think Champions League is bigger but I'd rather win the league.

Went to the one in Austin. It was fun but the logistics were strange. The venue was very difficult to move around in (partly the venue and partly the sheer number of people).

I also went to the Austin one in 2019. We showed up about 30 mins before they opened, not thinking much of it. But it was PACKED! Line to get in was very long! Like Mathguy64 said, the venue was kind of strange and difficult to maneuver. I remember thinking how "narrow" everything felt. But there as a ton of stuff to do. I met the best host in sports television, Rebecca Lowe, as well as Robbie Earle and Robbie Mustoe. I also met Kyle Martino (this was before Tim Howard was stupidifying our brains). They had lots of free stuff and things to do. Breakfast was free (they had a guy who could "draw" pancakes so I ate a pancake with the Premier League logo), free shirts (by the time I got one, they only had XLs left), and they had free screen printing for your jerseys (they only had limited names. As a Liverpool fan, you could only get Virgil or Salah). We also took a picture with the Premier League trophy. I also won a "personalized kit" from Avery Dennison, which is the company that makes and designs the Premier League name/number font. So I got to design my own kit with a logo, sleeve patch, and my name and number on the back. I still have it, it's pretty cool. And there were TVs EVERYWHERE with different games going on so you could see whatever you wanted. All in all, it was a very cool experience. Austin was the third or fourth one they did so I am sure they have tweaked it some and the Nashville one was that much better. If you're thinking of going to one with kids, I think older kids would enjoy it, but it was not very conducive for younger kids like mine.

That's all great info, thanks a ton. We kicked around the idea of going up to Nashville this weekend, but had other competing kid events. Also the oldest is only ten now so we have a few years left to make it happen. The recap stuff looked like a ton of fun yesterday.

Winning the PL is definitely a big deal, but the CL trophy seems like a larger multi-year accomplishment, end-of-the-road occasion for some reason to me.

Everton losing 2 more points.

Why are they hammering certain clubs and letting others do what they want?

I hope you aren't hinting that certain (man Dhabi) clubs are doing anything nefarious.

Don't worry, they'll fix the system so City can legally pay off the rest of the league… right after they make sure Everton and Forest get relegated.

it's total corruption/bull***** They have to hit "someone" to give the appearance of not being useless/in the bag for certain clubs to keep would-be government regulators off of their backs.

Call me when Man Dhabi gets hit with a proportional points deduction and finds themselves playing in a Sunday pub league.

You guys do know that all the clubs run the EPL, so they put this system of point deduction in effect right? It is a relatively new system, so the City issues came under the old FFP rules, which are still in legal fights.

Would be nice if the FA grew some balls and docked them points but that will never happen. Have to pray Pep leaves soon

Liverpool and Arsenal both turning into pumpkins and handing the Man City Machine another league title is pretty grim stuff.

6 games left people. City's remaining games aren't exactly a murderer's row but they only need to draw one of those games to leave the door open again for Liverpool or Arsenal. @ Brighton and @ Spurs won't be cakewalks.

They're of course the favorites now but far from over.

Cole Palmer just killed a guy. Jared Branthwaite, may he rest in peace. Too young to leave us so soon.

Um. A perfect hat trick in less than 30 minutes for Mr. Palmer.
