  1. I guess I don’t care. They don’t matter. And she doesn’t seem to either. She’s laughing all the way to the bank.
  2. Ok. I’ll consider that maybe it’s me that’s more uncomfortable that you guys are shitting on women players the same way you shit on men’s players. It should be equal opportunity, I guess. I’ll think about that and how it may be me applying a double standard. (Contrition on surly, holy shit!). I also don’t shit on male players and teams and leagues as much many on this site do (other than a brief dalliance being anti-Case a dozen years ago), so perhaps it’s my sunny disposition. My view is it will all work itself out as CC blows by the league, then her and Brueckers and eventually Juju, if she fully recovers from that injury, just leap past everyone with Aja and Collier and a couple of others. And given that, maybe I am just perplexed by the high levels of anger from people who claim not to be consumers of the product And even if one thinks it’s a shit product, it’s one that is hugely important to people like my daughter and her friends. The level of play is less important than the fact that it is possible when it wasn’t 30 years ago, regardless of how it’s being financed. And even better if CC and some others can drag the league up to a higher standard. So to bring it full circle to it being a CC thread (although last page seemed like an Angel Reese thread), enjoy the brilliance and know that it will eventually win the day.
  3. Like I said. This thread is weird. Clark is definitely getting undeserved shit from the vets and others that she will eventually just have play herself out of, and she will because she’s just that good. It sucks that she has to deal with it but she isn’t the first. But there is this just this weird undertone, je ne sais quoi, from those complaining about it that goes beyond that. It’s like the online horde complaining about the all women Ghostbusters cast. Closest thing I can think of to it, in any event.

    Uzuni continues to frustrate but him finding Kolmanic on the goal is an elite play not often seen in MLS.
  5. This thread is weird.
  6. They killed or flipped all the bad guys that we have any connection to, so not sure what’s left to do next week. I could have been cool with this being the last episode.
  7. It’s Eddie. Of course that makes Eddie the same to Maeve as Seraphina so I don’t get Maeve’s loyalty to Eddie unless she is about to turn on him. Still wondering who Freddie named to get him thrown off roof. I presume Maeve. And Inwont be stunned to find out Kat is CIA or something. This show has already gone Gangs of London bonkers with the end of the last two episodes.

    Twice in this game Uzuni made super weird decisions to pull back when I thought he could have pushed forward. Particularly early in first half where he could have battled forward then just passed it across the field. I am not seeing it from him. Bukari clearly has a ton of skill, but he and Gallagher don’t seem to connect well along the side. It just feels like a bunch of guys that haven’t played together, and I guess there is some truth to that.
  9. Your Friends and Neighbors is trying to do too much. It is trying to be like Desperate Housewives or something with 30 different storylines instead of Breaking Bad with one through line and some interesting ancillary stuff. I like it but it could be so much better. There are about a 1/2 down characters that get too much screen time.

    That free kick by BV was sick. That extra time goal was not.
  11. Kind of a Geena Davis meets Trippelhorn meets Laura Kightlinger vibe with a British accent?
  12. With Tatum going down probably through next year, Celtics are doing something. Trading KP expiring is obvious move. Not sure I want Holliday at that age unless relatively inexpensive. But I’d be up for trying to get White.
  13. The Spurs would have been worse but this sucks. There were two teams I wouldn’t have bought a Flagg jersey for and they are picking 1 and 2.
  14. Congrats, Mavs fans, on winning the NBA Lottery and locking up the rights to Kon Knueppel. Nico knows. Trust the genius.
  15. Was going to suggest Nico will probably draft Maluach. Because defense wins championships.
  16. Lebron—>Kyrie AD —> Zion Luka —> Flagg
  17. Of course he’s going to Dallas. Fml.
  18. I guess it's possible the prologue scene was years earlier..... It isn't connected to the rest of the episode, and it seemed Nora knew it was in the air. The pre-credits scene specifically talked about keeping it quiet. Prepuce pointed out correctly that def was the prologue scene woman's son.
  19. I am enjoying Bella Ramsey's performance.
  20. I was stunned Richie didn't give her up on the phone for serving up Brendan. But I guess they need to wait for that plot point to drop.

    Nico was such a bad hire. It’s like hiring fucking Jason Garrett or Brian Mangini.
  22. Man, she fell off the deep end. She wasn’t fucking crazy on January 6th 2021 but she has lost her damn mind and the ozempic is showing in that picture.
  23. Man, Giannis is a top 3 player. There isn’t anyone like him and he’s the closest thing to Hakeem since Hakeem. If he is available for anything less than or equal to 3 of Sengun, Green, Tate, Sheppard, Whitmore, and Smith, and picks, you figure it out. You can find shooters. That’s just me, though.

    To this point…. The supporter section basically missed the second goal because they were so enamored with throwing water on themselves. And when we had that free kick just outside the box, they got really loud in whatever song they were singing woth drums kicking in *right* when we were running up to kick it - how does that help when drums all the sudden start banging as our dude is running up to kick it? I swear 70% of that side isn’t watching the game. I love the enthusiasm but it’s like they are at another event. Are all supporters sections like this? If so, I’ll give them a pass. But it’s like if we started screaming the Texas Fight chant as loud as possible when our offense is working in the Red Zone of DKR and about to score in order to prove which side of the stadium is the loudest.
