Yes. Or Carling Cup. I forget. I think it was FA though.

It was in the 3rd Round of the FA Cup against Charlton.

Deuce has 15 goals this season, 9 in EPL play. I believe the goals today moved his total tally up to 52 total goals for Fulham.

Brek Shea has gone close a couple of times. Still scoreless though.

USMNT has definitely had better opportunities.

Surely they can't let this game go scoreless. They HAVE to find the back of the net sometime under Klinsmann...maybe Pia used all the US National Team allowed goals last night...

Arsenal-ManU on Fox (real Fox, not FSC) this morning. Looking good for my first HD EPL game on my new 42" LED :)

Missed an easy ass goal.

He's made up for it though, just equalized with a nifty goal.

Incredible games this weekend.

City escapes with a penalty spot win. United get a late winner. Chelsea drop points. USMNT get an extremely late winner.

I could use more weekends like this -- if only City would drop points too!

Ballotelli in the center of it all again. Dude was right when he said "Why always me".

Yeah, unfortunately.

He's so hard to root for. But I like watching...I just want to see him do his stuff. But, maybe he's so hard to root for because of who he plays for.

Its so hard to make that call live on Balotelli though. I'm a ref (albeit a shitty one) and in full speed when he trips like that its impossible to discern intent. On replay though it did look like he made a definite second stomp.

The final call was a terrible foul and definite penalty. Crazy turn of events after Tott failed to finish then concedes a PK a minute later.

Balotelli can get a pass on that situation. A casual fan mighty say it was unintentional, but who knows. It could have gone either way.

Regarding the United/Arsenal match. Wenger is an idiot. Why did he sub Oxlade-Chamberlain? He was positive every time he touched the ball for the most part. They bring in Arshavin and he plays similar defense to what I would be playing on the go ahead goal. Send his ass back to Russia!

Arshavin has been a bum since his 1st season at Arsenal.

Has anyone seen RvP's reaction to Arshavin being subbed in? It's priceless! I'll try to dig it up.

Also, the USWNT beat Guatemala last night...13-0. So, in their two matches for Olympic qualifying, they have a goal differential of 27-0.
