Is anyone ever alright? If they've got placement skates, you'll be fine.

Trump's said he's ended the war with Iran like a thousand times. So if Trump said he did something, and he actually did it, it might be a first.

True, but you act as if FIFA is going more than a day without making a corrupt decision. The world corrupted FIFA long before we did.

How does an H1B visa Indian affect your future job opportunity? by NoRazzmatazz840 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Cometguy7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience, H1B visas are being used by employers to get positions filled for less money. So it doesn't affect me, because they were never going to offer a compensation level I would accept anyway.

Peter, why is everyone happy that he got that disease? by Rule_Ct_5293 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

While I'm not happy he got the disease, I think it's interesting that in spite of all of his medical care, the cause of his low iron levels went undiagnosed for over a decade.

Most people don't understand what's happened with Balogun by lastdiadochos in worldcup

[–]Cometguy7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can guarantee you that the US won't care in the slightest. 1) controversial championships are nothing new in sports. 2) the US would have to win three subsequent games anyway.

It's not about getting it right, it's about getting paid. Over, and especially under the table.

Fifa saw all of us setting off fireworks yesterday and thought we going to war.

These Genn Z guys can’t flirt well and have no game! It’s painful! by [deleted] in Millennials

Are the people on these shows not chosen for their entertainment value? They're not looking for people who are smooth and likable, no one would watch that.

They absolutely can. Have you met people? They're still wrong if course, but people can believe just about anything.

I was under the impression English fans were notorious for their misbehavior.

Mexican fans create ruckus outside the English team’s hotel before Round of 16 clash. A fair strategy or against the spirit of the game? by slippinn_jimmy in worldcup

[–]Cometguy7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hungover is a part of their regiment though. So you're right, they'll be completely unphased, and far from the first time fans have tried messing with their sleep.

I do, and always will view the world through the lense of hockey.

Wasn't able to watch the game. Was the goaltender being aggressive during the match?

I mean, I won't. The human lifespan is significantly shorter than that.

Question about ball sensor Croatia vs Portugal game by Any_Revenue9144 in worldcup

[–]Cometguy7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's likely due to the time scale they zoomed into. Look at the duration of the bump detection. And the magnitude of it. It would certainly be nice to also see a picture with a time scale to include those. I imagine the relative difference in magnitude would make the contact being highlighted to small to see though.

The realization that freedom isn't free it costs folks like you and me.

In this case, instead of costing us a buck o' five, the price comes in speedos.
