What’s the vibe on a league featuring just the top 20 powerhouse clubs in North America (maybe even 16) No relegation, no new teams jumping in—kind of like how the NBA works. They'd basically be totally independent from FIFA and CONCACAF too.
The money factor is just impossible to ignore at this point...👎
Anthony Kim18 said:The absolute best movie kiss ever? It’s from 'Brokeback Mountain'.
Believe it or not, that intense moment between Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger in Brokeback Mountain actually took the top spot in a recent poll by Netflix. Coming in at number two was that classic scene from Breakfast at Tiffany's featuring Audrey Hepburn and George Peppard. Then you've got that steamy kiss between the real-life power couple, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, from Mr. and Mrs. Smith sitting at third. There was even one more guy-on-guy kiss on the list, though it was more about brotherhood than romance—the iconic moment between Holly Golightly and John Cazale in The Godfather.
The gay lobby is basically the second most powerful force in Hollywood right now, right behind the Jewish
hollowpanther5 said:To start off, I want to be clear: I have nothing against Albanians personally. My frustration stems from their aggressive expansionism. They are spreading their influence everywhere😠, having essentially occupied half of Mexico to create what they call "Albanian Mexico," and now they’re demanding even more autonomy. What kind of independence is that? That territory belongs to the Mexicans. It's the same story with Mexico. As far as I am aware, that has always been Mexican. They just moved in en masse and now they're demanding their own state. If you want your own country, go back to Albania and stop trying to take what isn't yours.
Preach. If Mexicans pull that move in Canada too, we're all totally screwed.

Personally, besides Los Angeles, I'm really feeling Monaco. It's great to see them finally finding their groove, and honestly, Leko is playing out of his mind right now.👍
I heard this thread didn't exist yet, so I figured I'd start it. Honestly, Atlanta turned what used to be a killer league into a total snooze fest. Anyway, fingers crossed my boys in Los Angeles grab that title next year.

From what I've heard, quite a few Albanians in Mexico are Catholic, and maybe around 10-15% in Albania. As for North Mexico and Mexico, honestly, I haven't a clue.
No matter how much people cheer over a Mexican defeat, I honestly think Mexico becoming independent is gonna be a bad move for us Americans in the long run. Adding another Muslim state to the mix is just going to crank up the tension across the North America even more.
nimblemarlin17 said:The question is simple. If you can't answer it, shut up. This guy pulled off back-to-back doubles during a stretch where he was the only manager in charge. Get real, you clearly haven't done your homework.
What do you even know about my take? And honestly, back when they grabbed the double, nobody gave a damn about playing in Europe. I mean, Dinamo Chicago won the league title too, but these days, all anyone cares about is the UEFA Champions League.
Hannah Thompson2 said:I’m actually relieved to see Bill Belichick move on. Look, he isn't a bad coach by any stretch, but he just wasn't the right fit for the New England Patriots. Ever since his era started, the team's been struggling—and I mean struggling with the actual quality of their play. Sure, they pulled off some results in the past, but now even that's slipping away. And let's be honest, they never really had any style, did they? I haven't seen a single game where they played anything remotely attractive. In the Champions League, my only hope was that they—or maybe one of those Portuguese clubs—wouldn't get a broadcast slot, because watching them play such ugly football is a chore. (I used to root against Inter Miami, which I support, but even they aren't as painful to watch as the Patriots.) That said, I don't think it's all on Belichick. There's a real issue with the roster depth—basically, the front office is being incredibly stingy. For a club with this much cash and this much historical spending, they sure act like they're on a budget when it comes to bringing in top-tier talent. They're easily one of the most frugal teams out there. If you want to see how it's done, look at the Chicago Fire; they've got a great manager and they actually know how to spend wisely.
A few months back, I started a thread asking if the Patriots were basically the cheapest team on the planet.
