truth on hold Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 im going w. the masters, especially with this year's super bowl debacle. but of course any year the bills are in the super bowl trumps the masters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tolstoy Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 I know this is unfair, since you asked for an "annual event," but I have to go with the Soccer World Cup, since at least this year, it beats out all other events for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 World Cup! I would love to wave the American flag at a world cup! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilsAlum Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 I voted for the Masters on the assumption that the Bills, Sabres, Phillies and Suns will not be in the final game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajzepp Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 Dang, I would have voted for the World Cup (other), too.....I voted before I read the thread I really haven't watched much of the Olympics, but when the WC comes on this year, I'll be keeping tabs on that every night. I love international soccer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PTS Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 Obviously FIFA World Cup is #1. Stanley Cup Playoffs are my #2, unless the Sabres are in it, then it's #1. And I will be waving my American flag in Germany this year! Me and a buddy have our trip booked. We've got USA tickets through the Quarterfinals. I'm excited about our group, it's tough but we're far more skilled then people give us credit for. Our group is the perfect group to show the world that we are an elite team. We just a hand ball away from possibly getting into the semi-finals last time around. And if USA tanks, I got Polska to cheer for! As far as worst, it has to be the Super Bowl. There's one good Super Bowl game for every three bad ones. And the commercials have been getting worse. By far the most over-hyped sporting event in the history of the world.

Lori Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 OK, I gotta ask: the MASTERS ?!?!? I play some golf. And yeah, I normally watch the last round. But better than anything else on that list? Really? (Full disclosure: I voted for the Stanley Cup finals. Two years ago, I bought my big-screen TV so I could have it for the NHL playoffs...)

I usually get really envious of Pete and all his adventures around the world, but I have to say a trip to Germany for the World Cup would be about the best trip I could ever imagine. Lucky BASTARD!!!!!!! lol Damn, I'm getting psyched....when does it all start? I need to check into what kind of packages my cable carrier has available. Hopefully they have a nice high def package for a reasonable sum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajzepp Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 starts end of mayI think Italy - USA is the second game. 612379[/snapback] Awesome....that should be a great match. As long as the USA comes out of their group with Italy, I'm cool....I wonder if Freddy Adu will end up on the team....that would be pretty damn interesting. He's obviously still pretty raw, but what a talent. I watched a few of his MLS games, and his short bursts and break aways are amazing. What an exciting player he's going to be. I actually didn't realize that Poland was as strong as they are....that should definitely be a fun team to watch, along with Australia. I don't see Australia making it out of their group, but kudos to them for getting back on the map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they play hard as a team it will be a very difficult task but if they do somehow pass the group, it will be a good thing for the program.
