I'm usually not for short term solutions, but we really have no choice now, because someonee thought a scout could take care for the rest of the season.
This isn't a babbysitting job, we needed someone that could at least guarantee a second place finish to get the CL spot. Now we have the playoffs without a real coach?
Wtf are they waiting for?
Get Lemonis NOW and hope he can get us to win the playoffs. I'm sure he watches every single match, so there will not be much adjusting needed.

Congratulations! :DWell I've gotten a PS3 as a present a couple of weeks ago as a b-day present ... so I'd say anyone who's interested in a match up lemme know.
Right now I have Metal Gear Solid 4 and Tekken 6.
I just noticed your post.
The Metal Gear Solid Game is great, I enjoyed it while I had it. Well the online games I got now are: PES 2010, Call of Duty 4 (Modern Warfare) and Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, and Grand Theft Auto 4.
The one I'm currently playing the most is Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 (the newest edition). Great first person shooter, if you're into that kind of stuff, I'd suggest getting it. I've barely played the single player, mostly all online.
I'll send you my screen name through PM and you can add me.

Disappointing match for me, the second goal really had me going. I watched the match at a bar and was surprised to hear some Americans saying they were cheering for Brazil! :o
Brazil scored 4 goals, the picture of Howard doing the " :nono: " was funny, that was definitely a goal (sorry Howard). Another slap on the face of FIFA who refuse instant replay.
-
After the Spain match, I do believe: "Yes we can!" - Obama :LOL:
I'm trying to convince my American citizens to think that this IS the World Cup, to get them more excited! Lifting up a trophy in a final vs Brazil should do the trick :LOL:
-
I like the way South Africa played this game, they actually looked better than Brazil for most of the game. Pienar can make some good runs down the field with the ball, Booth is a big presence in the back, he might of had some chances at heading it in if their corner kicks weren't so horrible.
Dani Alves free kick was sick, I rate this guy way up there. Don't forget Alves was on the bench till the last 5 min., no Ronaldinho, no Juninho, no Alex. Still I wasn't expecting South Africa to play that well.
I was also hoping to see Pato thrown in there around the 75th min. after nothing was being produced inside the box.
USA v. Brazil will be exciting. Hopefully a good performance by the USA will inspire more interest in soccer for my fellow citizens. :)
-
Wow what a shocker! 2-0 USA win :nw:
We need victories like this to progress USA soccer into the mainstream. I like this!
-
USA in the semifinals :tup:
Makaronades are out :tup:
I have a feeling USA will receive the worst butt kicking they've ever seen vs. Spain. Spain has got to be the best team in the world at the moment.
-
That flame thrower is crazy! You have officially convinced me that I am NOT going to the 2010 World Cup.
I'm sure their criminals can't wait to "greet" the clueless tourists next year.

I have to agree that the "Asian" conference makes no sense. When I think of people from the Middle East, I don't think of China, Korea, Japan, etc. When I think of Asians or at least Orientals, I don't think Lebanese, Iraqi, Palestinians, etc. These people simply do not belong in the same conference. The only exception I can see is placing Australia, New Zealand, and Oceania nations in an East Asia conference for practical reasons.
Otherwise, the Middle East and the Far East are worlds apart. Watching Iraq play S. Korea is more like watching a world cup game rather than a qualifier.
The whole point of creating conferences in the world is to have a balance of nations that represent their area of planet earth. By separating West and East Asia into their own conferences, you are more likely to get a balance of countries that represent their regions (e.g. Iraq and Iran represents Middle Eastern nations and Japan and S. Korea represents the Eastern Asian nations).
-
I love the referees whenever the Makaronades play, especially against the USA. STRAIGHT red card early in the game for what at best is a yellow.
I also liked the rugby tackle on Landon Donovan in the box. <_<
Onyewu blew it big time with Italy's 3rd goal.
So are we going to be hearing these bumble bee blow horns for the full 90 min. during every single game of the WC2010? Can't they at least throw in some trumpets, sing some Kumba Ya, etc.?

He got subbed in overtime for the UEFA Cup final, and was not far off from equalizing Shakhtar with a shot on goal.He has been playing regularly, however he didn't get a run in the 2nd leg semi versus Hamburg which Werder won. A bit dissapointing. Hopefully he hasn't been demoted by the manager.
It would be great for him and for Greek football if he gets a shot at the UEFA Final. Would be a very big thing to win against Shakhtar.
I was amazed how much the announcers here in the USA were talking about him, even when he wasn't playing. They were saying things like "The one big surprise for Werder Bremen is that they didn't start Tziolis" and "they should have put him in earlier". I haven't seen him play for Werder Bremen other than the UEFA Cup final, but it looks like he's doing well so far.
It would be nice to see a Greek star in one of the top leagues, hope he stays there.
-
It is done.Ernesto Valverde is no longer Olympiakos coach.
-
I see the mullet is covering most of his neck now. So the coach will not allow him to play until he has a fully formed mullet? Can't he get some hair extensions? :LOL:
-
I take it you were being sarcastic, right? :unsure:Basinas at his best is much better than over hyped Beckham.

I mention my name in the comments section on the Phantis profile page. I sent you a friend request Genome. :D
I use Myspace instead of Facebook, I just joined to see how you crazy members look. I only got a profile pic now, but I'll add some more later.
Is anyone interested in forming a Phantis profile for Myspace? I'll volunteer to set it up if no one else wants to.
-
Cool idea to have a Facebook profile for Phantis.
Ok, I created a Facebook profile today just to see my fellow members. Now add me as a friend! :D

Please be true! :rolleyes:CASTILLO IS REALLY CLOSE, Deadline closes really soon and castillo said himself that he is going to pay 500 000 thousand to buy the contract to play at olympiakos!! :nw:

I had the same problem with PS2 in Greece. I burned 2 converters. Then I used foreign adapter plug, the simple little thingy that goes over the plug so it can fit into the holes. I could play for hours with that. Don't know if the PS3 uses a lot more power, but if it's anything like the PS2, then it should work as well.anyone know why the ps3 doensnt have aconverter built into the charger?
I brought it to greece and i could only play 20 miuntes b4 converter over heated.
one day i played 45 minutes on euro2008 (great game btw) and the converter became a smoke machine
-
Heck, I'll even volunteer to be a judge for the lap dance competition. :)anyway who cares, my vote is for poll dancing in 2016!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thats a sure bronze for Greece
The 4 on 1 relay. That's what I'm talking about. Aaaalright, Giggidy giggidy. :LOL:

Paxiotis, I sent a request to add you. Time to get blasted in Call of Duty 4 :)

This crap is embarrassing. I'm not just talking about the Greek Olympic team, but everyone that dopes. Just because you don't get caught doesn't make it o.k.
What's even more sick is that this is allowed to happen, people turn their heads in the name of profits and nationalism and whatever else they can benefit from a doped up athlete winning gold.
I think being Greek makes me see it being worse than someone else. The beautiful history of inventing the Olympics. I remember as a little boy telling all my classmates "You know who invented the Olympics? The Greeks..." sounding like Mr. Portokalos from My Big Fat Greek Wedding. There was so much pride about watching the Olympics, even when there were no Greek athletes on the TV, just knowing that all these people are participating in an event that was created by your ancestors. How cool is that? :tup:
But now, being older and wiser, I see all the filth that has tainted the spirit of the Olympics. I mean the whole idea of the Olympics, bringing all these people together to compete peacefully, putting aside all the m****ies that divide us and seeing who is the best athlete.
Cheating and selectively punishing the smaller countries that aren't as strong, so you can collect as much gold as possible. Sounds more like dirty politics, something that has nothing to do with what the Olympics should be about.
The opening ceremonies, the moment when all the countries of the world march into one stadium, beautiful moment right? Should be. What do the commentators talk about for most countries? Population, famous athletes, historical facts, etc.
Unless you're on their s**t list. Then you have millions of people hearing the commentator saying "their President said these controversial remarks" "this country's leader has been anti-this anti-that". Complete garbage. The Olympics, the opening ceremonies, should ONLY be about bringing people together to compete peacefully. THAT IS IT. Like I said, put your m****ies aside. NO POLITICS. NONE. Do that on CNN or Fox News, not on my ancestors cherished event, you selfish pricks with an agenda always on your mind (Yeah, I get pissed).
I've heard that the Ancient Greeks would stop war during the Olympics, or at least allow safe passage to all athletes traveling to the Olympics. And you got old men deciding to boycott the 1980 and 1984 Olympics. How selfish is that? A young man or woman practicing their whole lives for this moment, and guess what, cause some old rich and powerful guys want to "send a message" to the other country, their dream is crushed.
This is what the Olympics has become. Look at what we are talking about. This is a thread titled "Greek Olympic Team 2008", and half of the posts are about cheating, doping, politics, wearing diapers, etc.
It's just sad what the Olympics has become and it will only get worse. It wouldn't bother me as much if someone else invented the Olympics. I just feel like the ideals of my history are decaying in front of my eyes when I see what has become of the Olympics.
I hate to be so negative, is there anyone else that feels this way?
-
I just hope the FYROManians don't get more medals than us. Otherwise, they'll start saying that they invented the Olympics. :LOL:How Ironic the country who invented the damn thing are the ones who lead the doping table......

Awesome! I'll add you soon.
Yo Blue striker i have ps3 too and have the same games as you. Add my online account : PaxiotisI got PS3 recently and the online play is pretty cool. Call of Duty 4 and Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 (might be called something else in Europe) are fun to play online against people from all over the world. Also got Grand Theft Auto 4, not too sure how good the online play for that is.
Anyways, if anyone here has those games and wants to play online, let me know.
Also if you have any suggestions for good games, questions, etc., you can talk about it here.
I have a question about PES 2008. Is the gameplay smooth, or is it kind of choppy? I noticed that with most of the online games I play, the ball and players will not move smoothly and sometimes the ball will be further ahead of the player than it actually seems on screen.
With the previous PES on Playstation 2 I rarely had that problem, but for this version it seems to happen all the time. I don't know if it's my connection or if it's some issue with everyone with this new version of PES. Call of Duty works perfect though, so I don't know.
Got Playstation 3

Recently got FIFA 12 for PS3 and have been playing it online whenever I can. A definite upgrade from the disappointing Pro Evolution Soccer series. Anyone else have FIFA let me know and we can set up a match.
Oh, and I also got Modern Warfare Black Ops.
