  1. Do anyone but the Brits really bitch about tactical fouls? It’s the strangest complaint I have ever seen. I would be pissed if my team didn’t know when or wouldn’t foul to prevent a dangerous counter. Are basketball players criticized for fouling to prevent a fast break?
  2. From what I saw, it didn’t really look like they expended much energy against West Ham.
  3. That would seem like a waste of gas with Lake Ontario right there. Since this is the small town, redneck part of the state, I wonder if the perpetrator is related to someone with some regional pull.
  4. No shit Lahoz went over there and asked three or four times if Vertonghen knew what planet he was on. Did he even make it 15 seconds back on before he asked to come off and proceeded to throw up?
  5. I am not a cool kid so this might not be obscure enough, but I think this was their only hit.
  6. Bernardo Silva deflects the pass back. it used to be that you had to “play” the ball to your teammate - so deflections didn’t count - but it’s been a long time since I reffed.
  7. Travis County Improvements up over 50% vs last year with no additions. No change with the land. Appraised is up 18%, after only going up 8% total over the past 4 years. I realize it doesn’t affect paid taxes, but the appraisal value provides a floor for the following year. Do your thing ProTax.
  8. It looked pretty evident for the middle part of the game that ManU hadn’t played in 8 days and Barca finished off Atlético on Saturday and had to travel. I think ManU will come out gang busters again next Tuesday, but after the 10th minute the Barca passes will be pinging sharply. Their legs will tire quickly and it will look similar to 2009 and 2011.
  9. He hasn’t done shit yet at Barca and has had ample opportunities. He has the talent, but somethings wrong mentally right now. He probably needs a change of scenery and a reboot. If Barca get 100M for him, they should pull the trigger and continue to raid Ajax.
  10. Which is fine, as either Mou or about half the squad needed to go. The question I have is, if VAR doesn’t give the penalty in Paris, do you see any reason to remove the interim tag from Ole? To me, it reeks of desperation and I think had they changed Mou for the ghost of Sylvia Plath the team would have improved morale and thereby results. I think that penalty and potentially a weaker than previous years Barca team are going gloss over this. They should have just lined up Pochettino to announce the second the season is over.
  11. David Boren isn’t old news yet, is it? Link
  12. Well, there were specific instructions on not taunting it.
  13. Inter spent a lot of cash in the 90s including buying Ronaldo from Barca and Vieri from Lazio to break the transfer records at the time. The 90s were pretty impressive in Serie A with Juventus, Milán and Inter all throwing around a lot of cash. Back to this year, Dembele will now miss the quarters and Suarez is a question mark. Coutinho will need to finally get off his ass.
  14. I think lower testosterone levels at 70 are more due to Mother Nature telling you to stop doing stupid shit and don’t have any more fucking kids you may not be around to keep in line. I did Shaw last Fall and the pain/tugging/secondary numbing shot was significantly worse than described in this thread. That said, the physical recovery wasn’t bad and I was back up to 5 miles/day in about a week. The rest of the process didn’t feel right for a couple of weeks, but everything was back to normal by a month.
  15. I believe there are additional requirements for admission to play quarterback. These include but are not limited to killing people, murdering people, and various forms of theft.
  16. The system is down
  17. As a Barca fan, I have a bad feeling Lyon is scoring first and advancing via away goals.
  18. I had a C6-C7. It took a while to get to see any Drs (3weeks) as in the beginning they thought it was just severe muscle spasms. At that point, I wanted to just get cut and be done with it, but luckily the Dr I had convinced me to try a week of painkillers and see how I was. Once the piercing pain went away and I could finally get some sleep, everything seemed manageable. A couple of months of PT and it was nothing but a dull pain in the neck. Every now and the my neck hurts a little bit. A couple of weeks of doing the Pt exercises and everything goes back to normal. If you aren’t old, I would try a long time of conservative treatment and pain management before I got cut.
  19. So a human being during the day holds your grandpa’s hand and says you need to consider home hospice (good), and the night time video Dr “robot” says he isn’t making it out of the hospital (bad). Well, he died the next day, so I would have to say well done robot. In my experience with family members at the end, everyone wants to pussyfoot about when it comes to someone dying. I fucking hate it as it sends false messages of hope and confuses people getting the info second hand. We are all on our way out, act accordingly. When my time comes, send me the no bullshit robot.
  20. Neither Lopetegui nor Benitez were eliminated from Europe in their time with Madrid either.
  21. My biggest problem with VAR letting the referee know about it was that I don’t see it as a clear and obvious error - which I thought was the point of VAR. The shot was a desperation hoof from well outside the box that is sailing well high and wide of the goal. The defender is a foot inside of the box and jumping across the shot. Does he let his hand dangle? Okay, sure. I don’t think he knew too much about it especially since it was so far off target, but I was kind of a shit defender anyway. If the ball went anywhere near the target it would have been scooped up (presumably) by Buffon. But instead it goes out for a corner - Man U is content and PSG try to get their head out of their ass. In real time nobody - not fans, not commentators, not coaching staff, not substitutes, not any of the Man U players (although they are appealing for the corner) are going to the ref with any outrage. Kimpembe even looks genuinely surprised (not some sort of Tim Duncan “who me?” bullshit) when the referee gets called. If the ref called it immediately or the AR called him over and they called it on the field, I would have thought - that’s really harsh, but whatever - Fuck PSG. The fact that nobody knew anything about it suggests it wasn’t some sort of clear and egregious error by the referee, but instead a game being refereed remotely. I just really don’t want this to turn into an NFL style reviews that just plain suck. That being said, at least more Qatari money will go to football instead of terrorism and Neymar will still have only found success as a fucking waiter, so alls well that ends well.
  22. Big balls by Rashford
  23. No way they give a penalty here
  24. If only Mbappe played for a team I could root for.
