    The destruction of the World Cup and Continental Champsionships

    Basically with this tournament, tournaments like the World Cup and Euro Cup will be meaningless, or at least less prestigious. The Olympics are also going to crap with planned inclusion of e-sports and the like to please East Asian and American markets...

    1 - The World Cup is more competitive and exciting than the Euro Cup and Champions League Group Stage. 2 - The Champions League Group Stage is shit. I have more but this is the first 2 I can think of. I am pretty sure many people are going to post "TM sucks" :)

    Football Manager - The documentary

    I've been obsessed with this game since I was 13-14 years old. Even to this day I try to avoid because if I get into it I become addicted. There is a documentary out about it, you can find it on itunes. I watched it and it was very enjoyable. What's even more interesting is actually how many...

    Keane versus Viera

    Watch this documentary, particularly for Keane. I find some of his answers are purposefully contrarian to differentiate himself from Ferguson. I also find his comments about Ireland and WC 2002 particularly of note. Full disclosure I am Arsenal fan, but Keane was always one of those players I...

    Iran - Denmark 1999

    In its entirety: http://footballitarin.com/video_page.php?id=212 Notes: TM was very bad, not only in this game but during the reign of Pourheydari. As much as I like him, he was not a good TM coach. This game in particular Tabatabaei saved our arses. Emmamifar, Hasheminasab, Helali...

    Senna

    Did anyone see the documentary? I don't know much about Formula 1 nor do I have any real interest it in, but it was very absorbing, keeps your attention and just very well done overall. There are no "talking head" interviews. Only footage of interviews or races that Senna was involved in...

    TM in Austria

    Everyone's too cool for TM now, but just a small update, they've been training in Austria. They had a friendly versus DAC Dunajska Streda and won 2-0. They also played against FC Baník Ostrava and won 3-2.

    French football and race quotas

    Has anyone read about this? Pretty huge stuff. I don't understand any of their concerns coming from the federation officials. 1 - even if many of these black and arab kids do end up playing for their ancestral homelands, the French still pick up great players through their system, such as...

    Why did Paolo Di Canio never play for Italy?

    Can someone explain this to me? Was it because of his politics? Or that he played in England?
