Weekend Rewind

0
Been a little behind on the blog in the past week with a busy time at the office as well as a couple of projects that I am currently working. But time to get the Tractor in gear and take a look at a busy sporting weekend. Not a bad past few days on the sporting front. Plenty of action on both sides of the pond, unless you happened to be watching the Premier League games on Fox Soccer Channel stateside, but that aside the rewind this week will try to touch most of the highlights.

Weekend Rewind

1
A split on the football front for me this weekend and, with the inconsistent form of Ipswich combined with the plight of the injury decimated Seahawks, that's about the best I can realistically hope for on any given week.

Starting on the brighter side, the Tractorboys made it 7 points out of a possible 9 in their past 3 games with a solid 2-0 win at home against QPR. Click to continue reading...

Weekend Rewind

As I develop this site we'll take a minute to look back over the previous weekend and get some regular themes established.

A royal blue weekend double for me as the Tractorboys got a rare win, romping past Plymouth 3-1, thanks to an Owen Garvan brace and a first in 11 games for Kevin Lisbie. Click to continue reading...

Rutgers Football Newest Fan!

0
The Rutgers Football has a new fan and it's no other then Manchester United own Wayne Rooney. Who would have ever thought that the soccer star would be spotted walking around the Manchester area with a Rutgers hat on top of his ginger head (below).
When Greg Schiano took over Rutgers in 2001 little did he know that the "State of Rutgers" would include the greatest soccer team in the world. Click to continue reading...

Day 12 - Mother Rush-ah!

1

Watching Russia play is a blast. Rush, rush, rush! All they do is attack and shoot at will. I love that!

Talking Heads: Rece Davis is rock solid as the lead studio host. I think soccer and college football have many similarities; they both have rapid fans, every locality plays it so there are lots of good teams and lots of bad teams, and finally both sports overstate the importance of coaches.

College Football Enjoys Parity - Only 10 of AP Top 25 Poll Teams Have Remained Alive All 9 Weeks

0

Is there para in the 2007 college football game season?

I believe so, given the fact that para intends equality in this case. The old proverb that any squad can beat out any other squad on any given Saturday have got never been more than apparent than this season.

My analysis shows only 10 of the initial AP Top 25 Poll squads have remained in the Top 25 during the first 9 hebdomads of the season.

Increased competition

4
Most of us reading this blog are MLS fans - at least that's my assumption. Probably, our preoccupation in MLS ranges from a strong interest to an outright passion.

We're getting to the time of year, though, where our zeal will be tested. College football gets underway this weekend.

Now, I won't lie to you and tell you that part of my mind on Saturday won't be at the Coliseum, where USC will kick the crap out of Idaho. Click to continue reading...
