    Wild Winter Fun- January 2024 Transfer Window

    January transfer news is already coming out of Spain: Juan Miranda is apparently off to join Christian Pulisic and Yunus Musah at AC Milan. Milan beat Napoli to the punch on this one, and the rumored 2 million Euro fee is really affordable for the Real Betis left back. Deal is expected to be...

    Still Not the Super League: Champions League 23/24

    I couldn’t find it but the draw is going on now. Feel free to delete if we do. Group F though…

    Return of the Galácticos? Spanish Fútbol 23-24

    I’m jumping the gun on a La Liga and all things thread even though the 22-23 season isn’t finished in some of the lower divisions because Real Madrid can’t keep themselves out of the news. They just dropped over €100 million for Jude Bellingham and now Kylian Mbappe looks to be trying to force...

    La Liga 2022/23 All Out of Palancas

    I’ll give a general La Liga thread another shot. It’s a super entertaining league in terms of technical quality, pretty accessible to an American audience, and there are several prominent Yanks playing there. We all know the big three and their quality, though I expect Atletico to be a step or...

    Favorite Soccer Club Story?

    Watching the Atalanta-Napoli game today on demand, it got me thinking about how much I love the connection between soccer clubs and their fans. It's truly unique, and lots of times the passion of fans for their local club is strengthen because of adversity. Napoli had glory years for sure in the...

    Serie A 20-21 Juventus Against the Field

    Match Day 3 is done, and we don't have a thread for Serie A this season yet. This is already shaping up to be a fun season. Lots of improvement at the top. By my count, seven teams should have the goal of finishing in the top four (and my math tells me that some won't make it). We have an...

    2019 Longhorns Football

    The 2019-2020 season is upon us. I know there is a lot of excitement right now, mostly due to a 10 win season last year, the emergence of Sam Ehlinger as an actually quarterback, and the bowl win over Georgia. Like most, I’m most concerned about the defense, especially in the Big 12 where...

    Texas Football 2018-2019

    Just a few days away from the season... Will the Horns score enough points to win games? They roll into 2018 as a Big 12 anomaly, with a solid defense and a "who knows what to expect??" offense. Last year, the D was more than solid and returns most of the two deep. The first critical question...

    2017 Texas Football: The Cake is Baked

    I figured it was about time to start the 2017 thread. It's been a busy year with Charlie Strong getting replaced by Tom Herman. Recruiting took a hit for the 2017 class, which isn't totally surprising (2018 is looking really good, but that's a story for next year). There are tons of question...

    Longhorn Football 2015: When do we get our horns back?

    It looks like there might have been enough interest in the general college football thread to do this. Feel free to add to this thread, mock the Horns, or otherwise contribute.   First, recapping 2014. Last year was the first year in the Charlie Strong era, and it was a tough one. 6-7 seasons...
