Champions League: Can Man U & Barcelona Hold On?
2008-04-09 17:16:00 Manchester United & Barcelona both head into their 2nd leg quarterfinal matches today with a lead. Both are at home today. Can they both hang on to join Chelsea & Liverpool in the semifinals? I would say the chances are pretty good, especially for Man U. The Red Devils will play host to Roma today with ...

USA Defeats Canada, Faces England In Bowl Quarterfinals
2008-04-05 17:09:00 The United States would avoid the sweep in Day 1 of the Adelaide Sevens Tournament in Australia. After getting smoked by South Africa to open the day, the Eagles would lose 31-19 to the host nation Australia.

When Does A Draw Equal A Loss?
2008-03-29 19:09:00 When you are mid table or higher, sometimes you feel good about a draw. When you are trying to avoid relegation versus the worst team in the Barclays Premier League, a draw feels like a loss. Fulham needed a road victory today versus Derby County, not only to snap their 18 month road winless streak, but ...

Man U Leads At The Cottage
2008-03-01 16:52:00 Manchester United leads Fulham 2-0 at the half. With Ronaldo & Rooney sitting on the bench, Man U still managed to dominated possession and chances. Fulham have had a few shots on goal, but their defense still sucks. I don’t understand playing Eddie Johnson out wide. He needs to be up front in an attacking role. ...

Fulham vs Man U: Make or Break
2008-02-29 14:41:00 Granted, from this point forward, just about all of Fulham’s matches are what I would consider “must win” situations. In a perfect world, a home fixture versus Manchester United would be a match were you hope for a victory but you would settle for a draw. Considering we’ve been sitting in 19th now for several ...

RWC: Canada Hopes To Earn A Victory Today
2007-09-25 15:59:00 I'm going to dub today's matches at the Rugby World Cup as "Somebody's Gotta Win" day. Both matches today feature sides who have yet to taste victory, and unless an unusual "draw" happens, hell, Somebody's Gotta Win.The action begins with Canada taking on Japan. The game can be seen live in the U.S. on Setanta Sports. Later on today, Romania will face Portugal and that game can be seen live on Setanta Sports as well. If you are living in the U.S. and you don't have access to Setanta Sports, you can catch the action "live" at Planet-Rugby.com.As for my predictions today, look for Canada & Romania to pick up their first victories of the tournament.

2007-06-09 03:34:00 Just a reminder, if you live in the U.S. and have Setanta Sports, you can watch Live International Rugby, starting very early Saturday morning. I haven't decided yet if I'm going to stay up until 3:00 am to watch the New Zealand game live. My thinking is, I'm going to sleep in a bit and catch the first two matches on replay later in the day and watch the South African vs Samoa test live. I'm most interested in the South African game anyways.All Times Listed As Eastern (US):New Zealand vs France-3:00 am (repeat at 6:00 pm)Australia vs Fiji-6:00 am (repeat at 11:00 am)South Africa vs Samoa- 9:00 am (repeat at 6:45 pm Sunday)Setanta is also providing delayed coverage of the Argentina vs Italy match on Sunday at 8:00 am.As was the case last week, I will provide scores and quick notes regarding these games, as well as the rest of the Rugby action on Saturday.
