You are in the same league the Rochester Rhino's are in. Our team that was supposed to join the MLS. They certainly could have outdrawn any team in this league or the MLS. They have Buffalo to the West and Syracuse to the East also. Since they did not I do not follow. i saw them play the Chicago Fire years ago. When they first came in they were very good. Rochester used to have a team called the Lancers that played Pele's Cosmos for the then biggest championship in US soccer.

Not sure how good they are now. I follow only the Premier League I am disgusted with the liars here. They tell us we are going to the MLS and they build new stadium for soccer only, and they remain in the league you guys are in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LedZeppfan1977 Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Well thank goodness we have some premier league action back this weekend. My picks are the Everton and Tottenham game over 2 1/2 goals. MU-1, and may take Southampton once. Also like the Leicester City and Chelsea game over. I may take a stab with LC at plus a half. The Vegas odds love that game to be a draw. I have never seen a draw at minus odds. This is favored to be a draw, respect for Leicester City I would say. I wonder if CP will finally break through? Likely not and not with my money. Might be a good chance of a draw of Everton and Tottenham. Both of these teams can score. I like Tottenham. But Vardy plays for Leicester City Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's my home city for fucks sake ! Well you said you did not understand a thing I said. So I guess I did not interpret you correctly. Anyway, your team is the team to beat. I think they are better than City even though the pre season rankings rated City just slightly higher. Everton and Tottenham are the kind of teams America would like. They score goals. They do not put you to sleep. Nor does Leicester City. When I first followed the premier league I kind of took to Chelsea but now I think I am a Leicester City fan. Since I do not live in England I can not relate them to the area's they represent so not sure who the 'good guys" or the "bad guys" are? For lack of a better term. I am guessing that Manchester United have always been the biggest name in British soccer. They are mentioned in movies often and are kind of like the Yankees of British soccer in a way. I hope they are not the thieves the Yankees are? IE, they rob other teams of players that were developed there and just wave their money and steal them. Now that their commander and thief has passed on, RIP, maybe they will be more decent, but I will not hold my breath. I am kind of surprised MU is only favored by a half a goal this weekend over Leicester City? Vegas is giving LC respect. I am pulling for the upset Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's four games into the season, I would give it until December before we start looking at who is going to win the league, Man Utd started at a canter last season & finished 6th.
