I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, one of the best parts of putting together the Thursday Challenge every week is seeing the commenters come up with answers (and correct ones at that!) that I never anticipated. This week was no exception. Not only did Andrew M. and Dennis W. both answer all [...]

Ross County F.C. v. Ayr United F.C. (Saturday) At what point am I allowed to start freaking out about what’s going on with my club? County still have a nine point lead over second place Falkirk and no matter what happens in this match or the next one against Dundee, the Staggies will be in [...]

United States v. France (Friday) I don’t quite know what to make of this match. Under Jurgen Klinsmann the USMNT has struggled against far less talented sides than France, so it could be that when put up against a much more talented and experienced side a lot of holes are going to become apparent in [...]

Ross County F.C. v. Greenock Morton F.C. (Saturday) First place feels gooood. It feels even better when you realize that even a draw will be enough to stay in first place for another week. However, a win and potentially stretching the lead over the rest of the table to seven points would be even better. [...]

New England Revolution v. Toronto F.C. (Saturday) Here we are, the final weekend of the MLS season and the Revolution only have one thing to play for- the fact that a win might keep them from finishing last in all of MLS. Looking forward, the Revs need to make it a priority to re-sign Shalrie [...]

New England Revolution v. Columbus Crew (Saturday) As the Revolution’s 2011 season has circled the drain I have had to continually lower my goals for the club. Not going win the cup? At least make to the playoffs. Okay, at least show improvement. Alright, at least play hard. No? Fine, let’s make sure to get [...]

I’ll admit it: I actually sat and waited for midnight to arrive last night hoping that nobody would submit an answer, much less a correct answer. It’s never my goal to keep a clean sheet with these challenges, but given that last week’s challenge was the 100th that I’ve created it was kind of nice [...]

The USSF released Jurgen Klinsmann’s roster for the USMNT’s upcoming matches against Honduras and Ecuador on Thursday and while there are no “surprises” as such, it is clear that while Klinsmann is still bringing in new players for evaluation, he has begun to focus in on a core group of players. Click through and we’ll [...]

New England Revolution v. Seattle Sounders S.C. (Saturday) I don’t often pick against my Revs in our “MLS Pick ‘em” feature, but this week I did…I had to. It’s not that I don’t think they have a chance, it’s just that they’re a club who can’t afford to make a mistake in any match, and [...]

Ross County F.C. v. Partick Thistle F.C. (Saturday) The Staggies are off to a middling start, but it’s still early enough that a win could, at worst, bring them within three points of first place, and at best, have them tied for first place. With the close of the transfer window the Staggies also trimmed [...]
