    The bottom line is that we won't have any confidence in our GK going into the WC. Average play from that position would be a pleasant surprise

    59 mins: Tosin, 45 yards out, spots Turner off his line and tries to go over the Arsenal goalkeeper but he reacts in time to avoid embarrassment 8 mins: More idiocy from Arsenal as goalkeeper Turner dithers on the ball on the byline, eventually passing it straight to a Zurich player who whacks the ball off the post via a deflection. The subsequent corner is then flapped at by Turner who gives another one away. Not an encouraging start on his debut.
  3. The United game tonight will be played as scheduled
  4. Two 4-0 losses in a row for Rangers. Marseille has lost 14 of their last 15 CL games.
  5. The hobbits didn't arrive there until over 1500 years into the Third Age
  6. The Shire comes much later so it shouldn't featured in the show at all.
  7. All Harfoots (Harfeet) are hobbits but not all hobbits are Harfoots. The show's treatment of them isn't inconsistent with lore, although Tolkien barely addresses the existence of hobbits before the Third Age.
  8. It's unwatchable. Awful product at this point.

    Great move for Brooks

    Robinson has definitely played well but Fulham had nothing else at LB. Can't blame Fulham for getting some cover there but Kurzawa is legitimate competition for the position

    Fulham picked up Kurzawa from PSG on loan. Bad news for Robinson and the USMNT.
  12. Aaronson very lucky that Gray was offsides by an inch there

    Just read that Haji has 14 goals in his last 14 league games. Turkey but still impressive.

    We are only taking three 9s and right now its Jesus, Sargent and Pefok. It only takes a few goals to get back in contention though as evidenced by Haji Wright's apparent resurrection.
  15. That's the basic issue. They have almost no source material (including no dialogue) and had to create many characters and fill in massive gaps in the story much of which appears to be inconsistent with Tolkien's total works. Galadriel is clearly the main character in this show and her role in the Second Age timeline in the Appendices is limited to a single sentence. These showrunners may be amazing writers capable of creating a brilliant show but it is very roughly based on Tolkien (inspired by not an adaptation).
  16. It's Tolkien fan fiction. It may ultimately prove to be solid Tolkien fan fiction, but converting Galadriel into a Xena/Rey hybrid is not a promising premise.
  17. That is about as consistent with Tolkien's works as this show appears to be. The parallels to Game of Thrones without source material are eerie. Also, what the fuck is that music in the trailer.

    Good to see. Anyone but Aaron Long
  19. People from Columbus died trying to save Dimebag and others from the shooter, including one dude who was trying to give him CPR. It's like saying Fuck Uvalde. At least the people of Columbus, including the police, immediately tried to stop the shooter. Moron
  20. The venue in Columbus is solid. Perfect size, great location, good sound, quick access to drinks and bathrooms and super easy exit.
