I almost want to retreat on principle. But not yet.

Here goes! I need to make up for some German luck.

Any chance China had 1 IPC left? Could you look on the e-mail I sent you with the setup? I deleted my e-mail, and the old roster is on my work laptop. It could mean the difference between a Chinese Infantry or not.

I have a sub and destroyer off Norway… 52! Precious naval units for me now… I’ll change this on the map.

I kind of feel like the game has started over. I think it’s an even game. I still have an edge in economy, but you have time again before I can bring my forces to the main theatre of war.

You’re having a good start to Turn 9.

Remember on Germany’s turn to subtract 5 from Britain and 1 from the US. This game is about to turn in a big way. You did a nice job setting yourself up to do it, and I did a poor job seeing it coming. This game was easily mine to win.

Bring it on!

I don’t understand the need to keep talking about cheating. I really don’t. It’s a little strange at this point… a little too under your skin. It’s strange… people have stopped talking about Vick torturing dogs (paid his price), or Stallworth running over a guy while drunk (paid his price), but people can’t stop talking about Spygate, even though a price was paid. Hmm. Time to get priorities in order?

The whole argument about no rings since Spygate is flawed - firstly, who wins multiple championships, anyhow? A very rare occurrence. It would be strange to think the Patriots could do it over and over again in the first place. Just making the playoffs most years is an incredible feat. That’s hard enough. Secondly, what on earth did the Tyree catch have to do with Spygate? Eh? An escape from pressure and catch that couldn’t be duplicated again if you did it a thousand times cost the Patriots a post-spygate championship. No cameraman in the wrong place on the field could have ever changed that fortune.

To the question! IMO Manning is the better passer, and Brady the better overalll leader. I think in the big picture they’re pretty equal.

Also, the same case could be made for Brady if you put him on the Colts. He might have more than the 1 title that Manning has. The case can certainly be made, based on the fact that he’s been playing a healthy dose of games in the elements, while Manning gets air conditioning and pumped-in crowd noise. It has been my experience that Manning throws a few more pics when things are on the line… refute?

As an obvious Pats fan, I’d be happy to have Manning on the team. YES, he would have been great with the Pats defense in the early 2000s. He probably would have won at least two and maybe three. Brady was the right fit for that particular style of team. Manning would have been a great fit for the Randy Moss era.

Good point LHoff - yeah, they could have been beaten, but it would have taken a team as defensively sound and hungry to do it, and there aren’t many of those out there.

Right you are. Please change on the map you send back to me… Britain 40, US 83.

As a reminder, I bought 9 Inf and an IC, for 39.

I placed 2 Inf in S Africa, 3 Inf in Iraq, and 4 Inf in London. IC in Egypt.

This game could get messy quick - one direction or the other.

Kurt - New World Order is a blast. Trucks and halftracks… trucks and halftracks! Say no more.

Hitler’s dreadful mistake was the attempt to invest Stalingrad, thereby rendering useless Germany’s greatest strengths - qualitative superiority and finely-tuned mobile and combined arms tactics. It became a slugfest, a meat grinder, a street brawl… and even though it came at massive loss to Russia, they were able to continuously pour troops into the city (manpower being their strength) while reinforcing the flanks and eventually using the German tactic of encirclement. Hitler’s hubris, as others have mentioned, was a fatal flaw. The apparent need to capture the city bearing Stalin’s name drove him to commit everything to the cause.

Stalingrad could have been circumnavigated and left behind as a pile of rubble, and the Wehrmacht could have kept the initiative.

History WAS made. Tim Thomas had arguably the best complete season by a goalie, ever.

If Vancouver had played anyone else, I would have been rooting for them in a big way - they were an excellent team. Boston just ground them down, scored scrappy goals, skated harder, hit harder, and played better team defense for Game 7. Nobody could have beaten them last night.

Sorry, that’s Killofzee… my mistake -
