Off Topic: Soccer and NASCAR

Shaky start form the Toffees but they have recovered, they have to win this this game.

Where the men are men!

How Schumacher wasn’t sent off in the 1982 WC Semi Final is anyones guess. Brutal! Nearly killed the French fkr!
Oh, sorry. That was soccer again.

And err, haven’t watched F1 since Senna really. Rules changed after his death and it seemed it got a bit more boring than usual. The Panoptes dude who is lurking says: “Boring? You watch soccer you halfwit, hashtag death to china!”

I haven't watched since Schumacher was dominating.

NASCAR has been pretty good, the new car has been pretty good.

In that case....I'm all about the midfield.

Mclaren, Haas, Tauri...it's nice to be able to refer to Haas as "midfield" again as well

So happy to see Haas bring back Magnussen and that he's doing well. Really excited to see how the teams adapt to the new car design as the season goes on.

You can, there hasn't been much NASCAR talk lately.

[Nick Pappageorgio]

Are we allowed to talk F1 in here....or is it strictly NASCAR?

That Mane goal yesterday was true evidence of the beautiful game. TAA's cross was a thing of wonder, the header pass by Diaz was just as good and all Mane had to was knock it in.

Just a reminder, huge relegation tilt today on Peacock. Everton have to beat Burnley.

How the Sky announcer got through this is anyone’s guess. I’d have cracked up at Carrey’s pubic hair gag.

The look on the face of the Everton security guy is fantastic.

Crazy game today, 15 minutes of stoppage time added to the Everton game. Iwobi somehow scores in the 99th minute to get 3 points for a 10 man Everton. The extra time was so long because of this dude. A truly impressive feat to zip tie your neck to a goalpost and it takes bolt cutters and 10 minutes to get him out. That takes some planning.

Yep a banana peel at Selhurst for the Citizens. I was only listening to the game, but my son said Palace put on a time wasting masterclass.

Palace 0 Citeh 0

Its all clicking into place for the mighty reds.

[froot loops]

It seemed like they were. Going undefeated the rest of the way is a very tall task.

I was laughing because I kept on telling my son about the quad in late December. At that point, the premier league was looking like only a mathematical possibility. Now it's within reach.

Holy crap, I stand corrected on that one.
6pts , only 1 goal difference, and game in hand?? Win that, only 3pts. Quite shocked. I had it in my head that City were a thousand points clear at the top. Finger off the pulse.
