Re: Clint Dempsey Should Never Take PKs for the U.S.

cK — Thu, 12 Sep 2013 16:39:23 -0000

I certainly hope we see Donovan taking PKs again. It's pretty obvious that Landon has much better skills in terms of ball placement, and the pace he puts on the ball is just right. It also seems to me that if he feels the need to, he has the ability to make adjustments within a split second according to the movement of the goalkeeper.

Dempsey, on the other hand, seems to be preset on his placement and focuses more on power. I don't understand his step count preparation either. In just his last two takes against Costa Rica and Mexico, he has ended up at a different starting point behind the ball. As we have witnessed, his technique is not very effective.

I've actually been working on a self-hosted link shortener off and on for the past few years. I have a working version that I use for my own stuff with ckdis.co. I just need to find the funds and the right developer to finish things up. I can send you a download if you're interested in checking it out.

There is no official Twitter TV show—although if there were it would be fun to cast! In dealing with networks and production companies we sometimes have simple agreements. Regarding the Reveille and Brillstein project reported today, we have a lightweight, non-exclusive, agreement with the producers which helps them move forward more freely.

Dude... I didn't know anyone read these tidbits... :P

Not that anyone else would care, but having the construction crew at my place, I thought that my cats may have gotten out and ran away... I looked ALL OVER, inside and outside, for them. They must've found some new hiding places, because Milly came out in the middle of the night... then a few hours later, I was woken up by Mosey! :)

@Kartik - DUDE... I'm feeling tired, in general. My legs aren't too bad, though I'm sore in parts that I haven't felt sore in for a long time. Fun stuff! :P

It's funny that you say that because Paula and I were quite pleased with the halftime show at the game. Both NIU and TCU marching bands were fun to watch. The bowl organizers also lit up the sky with a pretty sweet fireworks display!

LOL... The Toledo game was definitely heartbreaking, but Wolfe and the Huskies bounced back!

The tix were $40 each for the Plaza level, plus $5 for handling or whatever... so, $85 total for us. You gonna come out? :P

Hey Alli!

Hmm... maybe all dumb chicks who think they are smart call into radio shows. It's like a dumb chick religion thing or something.

Leykis definitely asked why she listened to the show if she hated it so much. Of course, she tried to come up with a smart answer... but then tried to avoid the question when she realized how stupid she actually was. :P
