Who remembers the first time we attempted "throwback" uniforms? Except instead of going back to a white standing buffalo on a red helmet they stuck with the red helmets we were using that season and put a white standing buffalo on it? Does anyone remember the date and opponent?

Is there a Red Robin in South Buffalo? Yumm!!
Go to 34 Rush at Batavia Downs and get The Thurmanator
There's a Red Robin on Milestrip Rd in OP. But I was looking for more Mom/Pop type places.
Batavia doesn't qualify as a Southtown. And it's actually north of Main St / Route 5.

I know Vizzi's and Grover's are two great spots to grab a beer and a burger in the Northtowns. But where do you folks recommend for the Southtowns or South Buffalo?

Whatever minor controversy surrounds who is fourth: imagine if the NCAA didn't go to a 4-team playoff this year? We would've had an undefeated defending title holder on the outside while two teams with losses played for the national championship. That would've been an immensely bigger controversy.
So kudos to the NCAA for moving to a 4-team playoff. Nothing is perfect. But this is a vast improvement over prior years.
(Note: this is even coming from someone who hates Florida State)

But there's a first time for everything:

This was a playoff game apparently... oops.
It was Brandon's uncle - Don Beebe - that taught him to play to the whistle

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for deer hunting, but I wish they let something as rare as the albino deer live for other people to marvel at.

Actually - the comments below the article already capture my skeptical thoughts as I read the article

Mickelson is an !@#$ for throwing Watson under the bus at the PC after the tournament. Even worse, Watson was sitting a few seats down from Lefty. I hope he never gets sleected for the Ryder Cup again.
I dunno - I always appreciate when players speak their mind in interviews.
Plus the comments seemed fairly tame.

Watched the first two days. 1-7 record in alternate shot is an embarrassment. Huge embarassment.

What's with these homies dissin' my girl?
Why do they gotta front?

The Germans have as much swag as a plastic bag.
Someone has sour grapes over Italy not making out of the group stage - in either of the last two cups.

It was Constantinople.
Now it is Istanbul.
No longer Constantinople.

I suggest that if the NHL, MLB, and NBA championships were only played once every four years (or were a one-game championship rather than a series) these numbers would be vastly different.
And were reformatted to appeal to nationalistic allegiances
It was a great tournament. I enjoyed it and my second favorite nation won. And now I'll forget about soccer for another four years (maybe two, since I do enjoy the Euro Cup).
That's how it started for me. I just started watching the world cup and Euro Cup @1990. Then I'd started watching the USMNT qualifying games after the 94 World Cup. Then I started following various Bundesliga teams (Bayern, Bremen, Schalke, etc) in the UEFA Champions League @1998. Finally I adopted a BPL team in 2010 - Liverpool after Fenway Sports Group bought them.

"The World Cup rating was:
Higher than the 9.2 rating on Channel 2 for the Los Angeles Kings title clincher over the New York Rangers in the Stanley Cup finals.
Higher than the 8.6 rating on Channel 7 for San Antonio's title clincher over the Miami Heat in the NBA finals.
Higher than the 9.6 rating on WUTV for the Boston Red Sox's World Series clincher over the St. Louis Cardinals.
However, it was lower than the 12.2 rating on Channel 4 for the University at Connecticut's NCAA men's basketball final victory over Kentucky.
It was nowhere near the 51.0 rating on WUTV for Seattle's Super Bowl romp over Denver. But expecting the world version of football to compete with interest in the American version on television was way too much to ask."

Poor dude with the concussion is all messed up.
Yeah FIFA really needs to devise some sort of protocol

Suarez to Barcelona. As a Liverpool supporter I say don't let the door bite you on the ass on the way out. C Ya. Now I can hate him with ease like everyone else.
Me too. Adios muchacho!

The first one was confusing me for a bit, but now that I read through the comments, I realize that the bottom row was actually just the options given for the answer. I originally thought they were supposed to be a part of the pattern, which completely baffled me. They should have found a better way to translate this to the online quiz.
Ahh - the first one baffled me as well - for the same reason. I thought the lower row of flags were part of the pattern of flags to be solved as well.
I got the rest correct.
Yes but which half? And black?? Do the let color blind kids in that kindergarten?
The right half is always dark on slide 2

Klinsman and these workmanlike teams will do OK for the next 8 years but after that, you'll see the first generation of kids who came up through the much-improved youth system. And it's only getting better.
Maybe we're getting better relative to past US teams, but are we keeping up with the world?

At work, a bunch of us were watching the game on a big-screen TV. Someone observed that the ESPN caption box ran out of room to display all the German goals on the Germany side of the box.
I suggested they could just list the additional German goals on Brazil's side of the caption box, because Brazil certainly wasn't using it.
I laughed at that as well - how ESPN had to scroll the German goal times because it overwhelmed the caption space
If its fixed by region, it will be Brazil against Argentina.
If its fixed for ratings worldwide, it will be 1 South America vs 1 Europe
If its fixed for home team and worldwide, it will be Brazil vs Holland
If its not fixed, I have no effing clue!
Even if it was fixed - and I don't remember hearing of any solid accusations beyond World Cup qualifying or beyond the group stage at most - a few slanted calls from the ref cannot fix a drubbing like that
