bragging rights: we outclassed you beating you the last time we played at your home!

Maybe it's time for a 4 tuner DVR?

"All games will also be available for live-streaming on the NBC Sports Extra website and app, which you have access to through your cable provider." Those TV providers are Comcast, Cablevision, Verizon, or Suddenlink.

Add this to things I never thought I'd say: 

"Germany, the football Mecca."

And take that FIFA for your blatant rigging of a "Classico" Champion's League Final.  The least liked country in Europe now owns the Economy and the Football.

yeah and it sucks.....god I hate german soccer...everything about it... a couple of World Cup exits including a beating at the last one have crystallized just how much..

i do like how the seasons not even over yet and german club football has basically already eaten itself with the goetze and lewindowski moves

This is How It Feels to Be City

so i guess we are all rooting for wigan midweek and hoping for chaos on the last day?

wigan, villa and the unwashed, three properly awful clubs for the drop

Without a doubt, though the prospect of Bale in United Red should Arsenal prevail is tempting as well.

BTW - Goals on Sunday was contractually prohibited from showing this, and that's a damn shame:

Watford v Leister city

Possibly the second greatest ending ever.  '99 Champions League Final being the obvious #1.
