RBL fans stage a protest:

We are good enough to beat the best teams, and bad enough to lose to the worst teams.

Chelsea need to score 4 away goals today. 😄

The bracket from here on:
https://gaming.uefa....lfinalsbracket/
Nobody expects RBL to get by Athletico Madrid, but it also clear that the upper half of the bracket seems to be much weaker than the bottom half. The bottom half has 3 juggernauts: Barca, Bayern, and Man City. The upper half has only 1, PSG, and they are hurting because M'Bappe has an ankle injury and might not play, or not play well.
FWIW, I would like to see RBL kick Man City's grass in the final.

I'm all in with Atleti. Bayern is the team that scares me the most, so I'm hoping they lay an egg and get knocked out before the finals.

I really think City wins it, which pains me to say.

it took two U-10 level mistakes by Madrid for City to beat them. I wasn't super impressed with them without Aguero.

my 4 game parlay for this round:
Atalanta win (Mbappe will start on bench due to injury, Di Maria suspended, Veratti out, Cavani no longer on team)
Atletico win (Leipzig has struggled of late, and now they are without Werner since he's moved on to Chelsea)
Man City win
Barca/Bayern draw(this one gave me the most trouble. Barca hasn't really been setting the world on fire lately and Bayern is probably the most in-form team in the world. But I think Messi will pull one out of his ass and force PKs).

Biggest question is who will be out due to Covid-19.

So glad we get to watch a Champions League knockout game live on a channel in a foreign language so CBSSN can simulcast a radio show.
SMH.

Thought that was ridiculous, too. Their ploy to get people to sign up for CBS All Access worked on me, I guess (I got a free 1-month trial), but I don't see the point?So glad we get to watch a Champions League knockout game live on a channel in a foreign language so CBSSN can simulcast a radio show.
SMH.
Sure, a few hundred (or dozen) people will forget to cancel and will get charged $6 each for a month before canceling in anger, but surely CBSSN ads would be worth more?
