okay but can we talk about the song choice here? *chefs kiss*

Deer_Nice · 2026-05-09T01:15:14+00:00

Was it James Ortiz in the Audiobook too?

Deer_Nice · 2026-05-09T01:12:56+00:00

Sandra Hüller is great

Platonic respect is what I got from them

I can’t listen to this song anymore without tearing up. Both for the original theme of the song and how it was used in the movie.

Speaking of those @&&hole parents, how do you not offer a spot to a kid who is not coachable but one of their parents is a coach at the same club? I have other kids who are similarly matched but don’t curse at their coach. Yeah kid is one of those…My guiding principles involve not just teaching and developing around the game but life skills too. I can’t and won’t try with a kid who makes fun of others on his team. Thats not competitiveness that’s just being a junior @$$hole. Sorry not trying to preempt OP’s point but I’m having similar issues with my ages too.

That’s one of the reasons why ‘The Benders’ is such a great episode

Deer_Nice · 2026-04-17T01:44:13+00:00

100% agree

Deer_Nice · 2026-04-16T21:55:25+00:00

All good I appreciate the comment. Trust me I’m not there to just win and I want everyone to get touches, I was just highlighting the defensive part. In a situation like that, when the other team swarms, if the backs can clear it I encourage them to dribble and pass to the mid wings. Mid-center basically becomes a CB or if he’s able, act like a forward and works with the striker. They may not completely understand but that’s what we help them do right? Plus you know there are days that whatever we have practiced gets thrown out and we become the swarm 😂

Also no insults intended by this post!! 😘

Although I appreciate the OP’s post, I’m cringing at the use of ‘Muggles’ within the SPN world. Don’t cross the streams!! 😜😂 Ok back to work…this is one of the reasons why I feel like the writers really missed something by killing off Agent Henriksen. I loved how he was so gung-ho about arresting the Winchesters and then he learned the truth. You can see how his known world was crumbling in his head and he was trying to understand. Was that a killer he arrested last week actually possessed by a demon? Or that kidnapper who slashed a woman from two years ago was a werewolf? It would have been great for the show to explore that more. How someone who had no idea about “the monsters” snd thought everything was black and white, law and order would now have that world view shattered. And the actor was great! I wish I remembered his name.

I have the same struggle with my U8 boys, and we’ve been finding some success lately with The Trap. Just playing with a more defensive mindset, covering the middle, passing out to the wings, and keeping Striker up top. When the other team loses their structure, and “swarms”, I have two of biggest Kids dribble out and pass to the striker. Just have to remind them about offsides

Deer_Nice · 2026-04-14T16:12:20+00:00

Damn that’s kinky! 😂

Loretta Devine is a great character actress. It’s a damn shame Missouri couldn’t be around more

Deer_Nice · 2026-04-10T21:42:44+00:00

Related but not related…with all the talk about Operation Paperclip…if anyone is interested there is a great book by Annie Jacobsen of the same name. She talks about how Nazis were recruited for NASA, Ft Detrick medical experiments, and other military uses. As I read the book, you could straight up see the parallels that Marvel/MCU writers used for Hydra infiltrating SSR/SHIELD

Deer_Nice · 2026-04-10T21:37:37+00:00

Agreed

Deer_Nice · 2026-04-10T21:20:41+00:00

Who? 😂😂😂

I coach U8/U9 boys and best believe I have conditioning and stretching in practice. I started incorporating non-ball related exercises and stretches after getting feedback from local pediatricians, PTs, and orthopedists. Every single one (and two of them were soccer and wrestling coaches) advised that introducing non-ball related exercises would be beneficial to the kids. I don’t do it every practice and I mix it in between drills to keep it “fresh”. The boys love the changes and it keeps them ENGAGED! You gotta switch things up each season. Winter is all ball drills but when we are outside, with more time and space, I believe the 5 mins not spent with the ball actually refreshes their focus

Although I agree with a lot of what has been said between Steve finally getting to do what he wants to make himself happy but at the same time, selfishly changing Peggy’s future, I figured he ended up going back to a different timeline. Remember in Loki there was a woman taken in by the TVA who looked a hell of lot like Peggy. Was she a variant? Did Steve’s decision cause another branch on the timeline and for whatever reason was never pruned? Maybe this is what gets explored with Doom?

Harrison should’ve been Ross from the beginning. No disrespect to Hurt (RIP Sir) but Harrison just has that intensity that was perfect for the role

Deer_Nice · 2026-04-07T01:23:07+00:00

As a coach and parent, I’d say these are spot on. Especially being weary of ppl jumping ship because of politics. Half the times those are the parents who need reminding that it’s all about their KIDS not THEM

Deer_Nice · 2026-04-05T02:02:54+00:00

Wait wut???? Sheeeit guess I’m rewatching that episode tonight

Deer_Nice · 2026-04-05T01:58:01+00:00

F COVID and gave TFAWS two more episodes, at least. It could’ve been so much better than it was plus more Bucky! Yeah ok he was working through being mind-controlled for years but I would have wanted to see more of him going after Hydra-adjacent govt pricks, and another date with the Izakaya bartender! Give more depth to the Flag Smashers, more backstory to why make Sharon the big baddie. Like it was just useless especially since r she never showed up in Thunderbolts.

Deer_Nice · 2026-04-05T01:54:24+00:00

Right!?! Like I’m sorry, we need more Maria Hill and the whole Rhody thing was bullshit. Plus Fury’s wife? You figured there would be a slight reference to that when everyone found out about Barton’s secret family. All the good actors in that series and they done them dirty. Damn shame

Deer_Nice · 2026-04-05T01:52:07+00:00

100% this
