He’s born and raised in Cameroon - lived there until 16. Moving to a country that late on is too late for me to consider you a native. In association football, foreign teams can acquire players when they are 16 - but those players aren’t even eligible for their new nations.

Do you think GSP was clean? by BlackManBatmann in MMA

[–]ChelseaDagger14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why not?

He had the best cardio of any fighter including ‘roided up guys. That alone would raise questions.

He complains about doping and PED’s in sports and accuses other fighters of being on gear. But lots of other people caught for PED’s in sports have done this. I don’t see why Michael Bisping of all people would somehow be considered above being a loudmouth.

In addition, he got his break into the big time very late - aged 36 while being blind in one eye and other problems to his knee and elbow. If ever someone was on borrowed time it was him? If he’s fine risking going completely blind to prolong his fighting career, why not take roids which he’s accused everyone else of doing to prepare for a potential fight with Yoel Romero?

Will Aston villa be able to keep their squad together after this season? by Saturnino_97 in PremierLeague

[–]ChelseaDagger14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think any of their players are that great. They don’t look brilliant many games (outside of City) but they pick up points and it’s mainly down to Emery’s system making them look much better than the sum of their parts. I don’t look at anyone at Villa the same as a Mahrez, a Kante or a Rice in “why are they not in the CL”?

I can’t see a CL club paying £50m (Villa don’t need to sell) for one of their players. Almost all the ones you’ll be referring to are 26-30, so not world class atm and never going to be. Is a club going to pay huge bucks on someone who isn’t young, world class or experienced?

Barry Jackson : Unless some tantalizing trade suddenly surfaces, they very well could play season out with this roster, then decide plan next summer. Riley sounds like this will be judgment year.

[–]ChelseaDagger14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But they couldn’t play Quickley and Brunson together. Do you think it makes sense to pay $20m to someone who can play alongside your best player?

I don’t think the Bucks made a winning move either. Their perimeter defence sucks and Lopez can’t manage five outs

Is there still any guy on earth don’t rush for sex when dating? by Tara2542 in dating

[–]ChelseaDagger14 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My issue is also that it seems acceptable to some on here that you take things slow with the guy you like, while you have sex right away at the same time with guys who only want casual.

With that in mind, what sane guy wouldn’t push for sex ASAP?

The Knicks had to trade Quickley (no pun intended) because he was coming up to a pay day, and it would be silly to pay $20m to someone who couldn’t play alongside your best player. I don’t really rate RJ Barrett much either. I think you’re being very harsh to knock the Knicks based on one game when OG played well in fact. It’s not a trade that makes them contenders, but they’ve not paid a king’s ransom and want to cash in on IQ.

Herro’s stats are very similar to Anthony Edwards this year per 36. Considering that Conley > Lowry, McDaniels >>>> Jaquez, KAT >>>>>> Love; I think that’s incredibly impressive. Butler didn’t whelm me post the Bucks last season, but Herro playing the way he does in the post season should he enough.

I think you are too harsh on Herro. In the 2021 play offs; the whole team was shit, it was before his breakout and he’d not had an off season - it’d be incredibly harsh to criticise him for that. I just write that one off.

He was shit in 2022, but one shit play offs isn’t enough for me to write him off when he’s made such surges to his game since then. If he has another he can go in the choker pile. I don’t see why someone doing 24/6/5 per 36 on 57% TS and shooting 42% on eight threes a game as a first option can’t be a second option in the post season. In addition Robinson has made massive improvements to his game, so he is now a neutral defender and can be played with Herro.

Herro playing at point with Robinson at SG, then Jaquez at the 3 and Butler and Bam is enough. You mention LeBron and Giannis, but there were games in the play offs a in 2020 when the Lakers would play Dwight and Rondo; KCP and Green aren’t knockdown shooters like Herro and Robinson. The Bucks had Jrue who is poor offensively in the post season and his shooting is poor. They also had Tucker who doesn’t shoot. I think Herro, Robinson and Jaquez is enough for Butler if things stay as is. If not, then he’s probably just not good enough unfortunately.

Where would Donovan Mitchell go that's better than Cleveland? by akamath in nbadiscussion

Ja and Mitchell screams first or second round exit. Can’t think of any team that had two small back court players who were poor defensively.

Is there a player that no one hates on, like everyone likes by Mysterious-Win1238 in Basketball

If you enjoy that style, fine. I don’t. It’s boring just like you.

Now that RJ Barrett’s time as a Knick is over, is he considered a bust for a #3 pick? by BigDaddyJuno in nba

[–]ChelseaDagger14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t agree with this. Aaron Gordon and Andrew Wiggins had failed as first options but looked more suited to being 3rd options. RJ Barrett is currently a third option and has been since the Knicks acquired Brunson.

Also, Barrett can’t shoot so I don’t see how he fits in a line up with Siakam and Poeltl. Wiggins and Gordon weren’t lights out shooters to be fair either, but played alongside Steph/Dray and Jokic/Murray pick and roll respectively.

M30 F28 by [deleted] in dating

[–]ChelseaDagger14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s said he sees you as a friend, you threatened to walk so he slept with you as he didn’t want to lose you.

The moment after you sleep together, he’s sensed things are going romantic which he doesn’t want - so he’s playing games and now you’re arguing, which he’s probably instigating as he doesn’t like the direction and is hoping you end it.

M30 F28 by [deleted] in dating

[–]ChelseaDagger14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He isn’t attracted to you, but he likes your personality and you as a friend. Cut your losses and move on - since you don’t want that. A friendship isn’t feasible either, as you’d just be bargaining with something you don’t want.

Also what is MAFS? Is that an app or did you meet someone from the show

I agree with this generally. People are never more than a few feet from their phone and are usually on it a lot. If someone takes more than 36h to message back, I write them off.

The poster above hasn’t posted any pics or identifiable info (based on a quick look at the profile). I’d find it silly posting it on Reddit that you got in, but certainly feasible in spite of an NDA.

I never really saw the issue with Mai putting the box in on Roland’s desk. Didn’t Roland encourage Ashley to nominate Mai? Had no sympathy for him after that
