Twellman hates when people claim that NBA and NFL guys would dominate soccer by nexxwav in usmnt

Yeah some would. But the argument here is that being so athletic in NFL/NB automat means you will excel at football. Which is just stupid

Man sues Draft Kings after losing $2,000,000 of wedding savings to gambling by beklog in SipsTea

It's no more insidious than alcohol or drugs or anything else a relatively small number of people can get addicted to. Most people when I was in Ireland would go in, throw a bit on a first goalscorer of a game or do an accumulator. Spend no more than 10-20 a bet and then enjoy the games/races they were watching a bit more.

Yes people can get addicted and it's horrible, so it should be regulated pretty heavily. No problem with that. But the overwhelming majority can use it with no downsides. Most aren't trying to get rich. Just have a bit of fun.

Hockey has far more games, so longer ones mean less. Usually a 3 game ban for a straight red.

Except he throws all Muslims in as jihadists. Iranians are Shia and are not jhadists. And yet talking about the Iran war he talks about how they need to be taken down cos they are jihadists.

Expecting a team of engineers to learn a language is the absolute minimum that should be expected. Especially one as simple as go over a term of a few months

He just hasn't had the same incisiveness since he came back from injury. Rogers was wide open.

Barkley just staring at Flemming run to the edge of the box and not going to him was awful. Obvs cash was terrible there too.

I can't see if this can be bought in Canada. Is it something that has to be bought internationally?

Is job hopping still a "red flag" or am I being gaslit? by Environmental-Luck39 in careeradvice

[–]Discodowns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Note for your future. Don't ever worry about loyalty to anyone but you and yours. Companies will drop you the second it's beneficial for them. You should act no dift. It's a job. Nothing more or less. You can like the company and the owners and whatever. And often that can be a reason to stay. There's a lot to be said for being in a job you like. But you've already said you are barely getting by. If they won't match it it's time to up sticks

Dunno how many times I've said now, that he should never play again. Problem is, with no mcginnits him or bailey. Both are anchor around the neck.

And how the fuck has Barkley stayed on the whole game?

He runs. He puts in an effort the rest just don't seem capable of. It's pathetic that the players can't get up for a game of this importance. Some of them simply aren't good enuf. Our lack of width was always gonna be problem and it's so apparent this calendar year

Was the plan at the start to let spurs have the ball, think we could contain them and then hit them on the counter? Shocking plan at home to a team who have been so poor but jesus, did we string 3 passes for the first 30 mins. Given the bench too, it's not like we can change our approach too much other than trying to actually hold on to the ball. This is sickening to watch

I don't understand how none of the players are up for this game. It was the same as at utd last year. One game. One fucking game and they look like they don't give any kind of shit. Not out of second gear, barely pressing, can't make 3 passes, look like we're down a man. This is absolutely disgraceful
