It looked to me like he actually punched it in. I thought he looked a bit sheepish in his celebrations. Come on Mansfield; get the equalizer.

Just saw The Hobbit and thought it was very good. I enjoyed it as much as LOTR Part 1 and better than LOTR parts 2 and 3. Martin Freeman is very funny.

Defense and goalkeeper poor; attack wasted a lot of chances. Newcastle unlucky not to get a draw. Exciting game to watch though.

We should have won that game comfortably. Some of the players looked like they had never played together before and the misplaced passes at crucial times were appalling. At least we got 1 point but we really should have easily had all 3. Rooney and Valencia were truly awful.

Trashing McCartney seems to be the thing to do these days. I presume most of this board did not grow up in the 60s when I did and The Beatles were the biggest thing there ever had been and ever will be again. Yes Paul has aged and he cannot sing the way he did when he was 20 but I saw him in...

1. McCartney last week 2. David Bowie August 1983 3. Stones November 1989 4. Dire Straits around 1993?

Saw Paul McCartney last weekend in Vancouver. An absolutely fabulous show and his voice was fine. I felt so lucky to finally see him. I have seen the Stones (twice), Police, Dire Straits and others before and Paul was miles ahead. I have actually seen a Beatle - I know I'm dating myself but...

I bet he goes to China.

I don't understand how City can get away with playing only 1 English player for 90% of the match. Isn't there a rule about that?

Some of the stuff coming from the republicans would be hilarious if it wasn't kind of scary. Someone was talking about splitting the country up and leaving all the "maggots" who voted for Obama. The republicans are basically white, rich men with their Stepford Wives who cannot stand the fact...

Clinton/Castro would be interesting.

The republicans seem to win where no one lives.

Congratulations to America. I was worried at first and doubted Nate Silver but there was no need. It was fun watching FOX a little bit last night; they really are a bunch of wingnuts on the right. Biden/Clinton 2016. They win, Biden retires half way through due to health and Clinton becomes...

Saw some guy on Charlie Rose say that if the Democratic vote in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut is depressed due to the hurricane Obama could lose the popular vote and win the electoral college which will fuel total hysteria on the republican side. They will conveniently forget what...

But then doesn't it mean biased elected officials can influence the vote in their State and that should not happen. I'm thinking of that stupid woman in Florida in 2000 who had a huge impact.
