    I watched Strubers team beat Phil Nevilles Miami 0-4 last night.

    At 0-2 Miami had a player sent off.

    Our old friend Brek Shea was playing for Miami. What a waste of snap he was and is. I cannot see anything in his play to warrant him being a pro footballer.

    No comparison Shea v Dike.

    Does Shea's head still look like an alpaca ?

    I really don't like that to be honest, the pointless need for a second team name. I like Dallas in the NFL and I try to stop calling them by their 2nd name.
    Although I did used to like it when Jimmy Johnson often said on their way to 3 Superbowl wins in 4 years... " how 'bout them Cowboys!".

    I just thought if we had to have a 2nd name, Bulldogs sounds better than Town or Rovers or Athletic lol.

    Dike is awesome!!! Might get some minutes for team USA which is really exciting - hoping Obbi can be a similar figure for us this year

    Hahahaha!! It's weird, that's one of the biggest differences I've noticed between American sports and UK/Europe sports. America places a pretty strong emphasis on having a good 2nd name and it's referenced EVERYWHERE. Compared to the UK/Europe, where it's much more of an afterthought. Very interesting!
