That's why I said you could only get it by importing it. I guess SI don't think there is a big enough market for Xbox 360.

That's kinda stupid.

The PC version is only $29.99 on Amazon and the PC version has more detail from what I understand.

molarmite · 11-22-2006, 01:43 PM

Is that 06 or 07?

06 is already on the 360, I'm pretty sure. 07 comes out 12/1 for 360.

In California 1/3 goes to the state government off the top.

In Florida whatever proceeds are made on our lottery go towards college scholarships...so essentially my dad paid for my schooling years ago as I go to school completely on the state dollar.

Honved

you hear of Ajax, just not as much as you used to...and now theyre more European instead of being primarily young dutch stars (I miss those days). Now they have some competition.

I would guess its a city name of some sorts? Pure speculation.

not that this hasnt been answered...

the bottom team in the Eredivisie is relegated with the next two above them being put in playoffs against (I believe) 6 other teams from the lower league. No one gets relegated from the lower league as below that its amateur leagues (suposta be at least). Though Im fairly sure a team can apply for promotion and such.

are all the names semi-modeled (only not modeled) after the North American team name way? [City Name then Nickname] only in revese? or is that just the way things came about?

Imma go ahead and assume these teams were created in the 1800s or early 1900s (though the Czars, WWI, & Communism make me think I may be right) and thus this is an incorrect guess.

Yes. You get taxed on the ticket you buy. 12p in the pound.

ABC at 3:30 if you are interested

DC was this close to being in the game

crazy extra time...certainly glad Houston won.

some strange transactions have already taken place now that Toronto FC have had their expansion draft.

mix of both probably...hes a role player. He can finish (usually), but he isnt relied on heavily to set up the play.
